About Owner

Howdy howdy!
I’m Tahlia Cole, founder of Misfits Rural Co. — a proudly Aussie, teen-run business bringing you apparel, jewelry, and fishing gear with a purpose.
I started Misfits not just because I love being creative (which I do), but also because I wanted to build something meaningful — something that helps pay for things like uni, but also gives you something to connect with, wear proudly, and feel a part of.
This brand is for the misfits — the ones who don’t always feel like they fit in.
I’ve been there. Through high school and even now, I’ve had moments where I felt like I didn’t belong.
So I created this brand to say:
You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t have to fit a mold. You’re welcome here, just as you are.
Whether you’re out fishing at sunrise, cruising with your mates, or just looking for something real — Misfits Rural Co. is for you.
We’ve got a bunch of designs already out (and so much more coming), and we’re just getting started.
More than just gear — this is a community, a safe space, and a family.
We’re here for the chats, the check-ins, and everything in between.
So if you’re down to support a small biz with a big heart, I’d love to have you join the Misfits Rural Co. family. Let’s build something real — together.
