Proof Lab

The hip Proof Lab near Bolinas is part surf and skate shop, part coffee shop, all folded into a spacious 10,000 square-foot-plus warehouse near Bolinas. Relative to most mom-and-pop surf shops, the Proof Lab is downright luxurious with a full-size skate ramp, and endless rows of boards from brands like Firewire, T. Patterson and Stewart, and and wetsuits of all weights and sizes. The original storefront, a former gas station (once the shop’s only retail space) contains a selection of basics including button-downs, henleys, chinos and sweats by RCVA, O'Neill and more. Whether you’re in the market for new gear or not, grab a coffee and kick back on the sunny front patio.
