The Story Behind Pauzewear Pauzewear started in Tunbridge Wells in the South East of the UK, built by Gav Pauze, the person behind Pauzeradio. It didn’t come from a business plan or a trend report. It came from years spent around music, radio and independent culture, and from wanting to make something physical that reflected that world — something that now carries through into the pieces at Pauzewear. Pauzeradio itself began back in 2009 and was always more than a place to post music. It grew slowly, driven by taste, instinct and independence rather than clicks or hype. Over time
