🎵 Our Story

At Pauzewear, everything we do is rooted in passion, quality, and a deep love for music and creativity. We don't just make clothes — we tell stories, celebrate individuality, and bring people together through powerful, positive design.

Pauzeradio.com was launched in 2009 by founder Gav Pauze, as an archive for his radio shows. By 2014, it had grown into more than just a music hub with the addition of a vinyl shop. In 2018, the first clothing drops appeared, inspired by roots culture and conscious living. Then in 2024, Gav collaborated with the talented Pascal Ruegg, combining their love of music and design to create standout pieces under the Pauzeradio brand.

Fast forward to 2025 — after several successful drops and a growing communityPauzewear was penned by Gav, as its own identity. A fresh chapter with the same heart and values, now with even more focus on wearable art and expressive streetwear.

The collaboration with Pascal brought the clothing designs to a new level, and Gav thought it was crucial to step up and design the new clothing website himself. It was very important to him that the online store, like the clothes, felt authentic and personal.

Proudly based in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, our creativity is balanced by a down-to-earth approach you'll find in every piece we create.

🌱 Quality & Sustainability

Everything we release is crafted using premium garments and features standout artwork created by amazing graphic designers who truly understand the vibe. We're all about fresh, unique visuals and hard-wearing quality that lasts — gear that not only looks good but feels good too.

Eco-Friendly Packaging: All our packaging is eco-friendly and recyclable because we believe in protecting the planet while delivering your fresh threads.

🧬 Real Human Connection

From day one, Gav knew Pauzewear had to be different. After dealing with big corporations that treat people like order numbers and rely on automated systems instead of real service, he decided Pauzewear would always keep it personal.
