About OAS
Founded 2010
Stockholm, Sweden
The Terry Shirt
100% cotton · Made in Portugal
Stocked at The Rake
Newcastle NSW · Ships Australia-wide
OAS was born from a Swedish summer ritual — Oliver Adam Sebastian's annual escapes from Scandinavia's long winters to the warmth of the Mediterranean. What started as bringing espadrilles back for friends became a full resort brand, built on the idea that good clothes should feel like a holiday.
Designed in Stockholm and produced in Portugal, OAS pieces are made to be worn at the beach, the bar, and everywhere in between. The brand's terry cloth shirts — looped cotton in a broad range of colourways — have become a cult item worldwide for exactly that reason. Relaxed enough for the sand, sharp enough for dinner.
OAS in Australia
All available at The Rake · Ships Australia-wide01
Terry Shirts
The OAS signature. 100% looped cotton terry, made in Portugal. Retro colourways, boxy fit. Wear straight from the water or into the evening.
02
Viscose Shirts
Lightweight and fluid, printed in bold patterns. The viscose shirt is the OAS piece that travels best — packs small, wears all day.
03
Linen Shirts
Clean, natural, breathable. OAS linen shirts are cut relaxed with the same resort sensibility — at home in a beach town or a city summer.
04
Swim Shorts
Quick-dry swim shorts in vibrant prints and solid tones. Longer length, relaxed waist. Made to match the rest of the OAS range.
05
Linen Shorts
Lightweight linen shorts cut for warm days. Relaxed through the leg, elasticated waist. A natural complement to the linen shirts.
06
Towels
OAS beach towels in bold colourways and graphic prints. Thick, oversized, and designed to coordinate with the clothing range.
Scandinavian design.
Mediterranean soul.
OAS sits in a rare position — a Scandinavian brand that thinks entirely in summer. Everything the label makes is designed around the idea of being somewhere warm, moving slowly, and dressing well without effort.
The brand's aesthetic draws from the 1970s Mediterranean — bold colour, relaxed silhouettes, natural fabrics. But the production is very much modern: made in Portugal with a focus on quality that outlasts the holiday.
At The Rake we stock OAS because it fills a gap in the Australian market. The pieces work as well in Newcastle in January as they do anywhere in Europe in July. Resort wear that isn't precious about where you wear it.
Why we stock OAS.
OAS is one of the brands we get the most questions about — people who've seen it on holiday in Europe and come home wanting to find it locally. We're one of the few places in Australia stocking it properly, with a full range in-store and online.
The terry shirt in particular has become one of our best performers. It's the kind of piece that converts on sight — people put it on in the fitting room and immediately want it. The colourways OAS chooses are better than anything else at the price point.
We carry the range year-round. In a Newcastle summer the whole collection makes sense immediately. In winter, the viscose shirts and towels keep moving — people buying ahead, or wearing them on holidays north.
What OAS products do you stock?
We carry OAS terry shirts, viscose shirts, linen shirts, linen shorts, swim shorts, and beach towels. Stock varies by season — check the OAS collection page for current availability.
How does OAS sizing run?
OAS pieces are cut with a relaxed, boxy fit — this is intentional, not oversized. Most customers size down one from their usual size. The terry shirts in particular run large. If you're between sizes, go smaller. Get in touch at cody@therake.com.au if you'd like sizing advice.

How do I care for OAS terry shirts?
Machine wash cold, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Avoid high heat — it can affect the loop texture of the terry. The cotton will soften further with each wash.
