We love oysters, turtles, and everything that lives in our oceans. Classic charm and bold modern lines come together to create a unique, head-turning brand. From oyster shirts to oyster leggings and hats we have all your oyster apparel. If you love shellfish you will love SHUCKable. Have fun browsing our store.
We know you will find something that will help you GET OUT OF YOUR SHELL.
We know what you are thinking; yet another apparel company founded by South Carolina natives who love oysters. Well, truth be told, we are a couple of transplants who by fate or divine intervention ended up in the Lowcountry where we met, fell in love, married, and decided to stay, forever.
If you have ever visited Charleston, then you would understand our decision to stay. A major part of our love for the Lowcountry and reason to stay is the beach, but while the beach is fun, we are particularly partial to the wildlife at the beach. So, yes, this company was founded on a love for oysters, but we are so much more than that.
We strive to incorporate new wildlife designs as quickly as we can think them up, and we are always looking for ways to give back to our wonderful beach wildlife. We would love to hear from you and hope that you stay tuned for all the exciting things we have to come!

Meet Dr. Courtney V. Harris, PT, CKTT (Founder/Owner)
Dr. Harris was born and raised in Charleston, SC and has always had a desire to move back home and give back to the community that was so nurturing and loving to her. Bringing Recovery-N-Motion from North Carolina to her hometown is a dream come true. She is a graduate of Temple University where she received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree in 2008. She obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Health Sciences from Florida A&M University in 2005.
After suffering a sports-related injury that required surgery and physical therapy, Dr. Harris observed and experienced the importance a physical therapist plays in a person’s life during their rehabilitation program, meeting their personal goals and being an advocate not only physically, but mentally as well. She knew at a young age her passion was to work in the medical industry to help others, but this personal experience solidified what she truly wanted to do in life.
Dr. Harris has various certifications including training to utilize instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM), cupping, dry needling and is a Certified Kinesio Taping Technician (CKTT). She is also currently enrolled in a Physical Therapy Fellowship Program to receive her FAAOMPT (Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists). This credentialing will vastly help her clients and will allow her to enhance the union between sports, orthopedics and manual therapy.
As a former competitive CrossFit athlete for nearly 10 years, coaching CrossFit for over 5 years and her overall love for fitness, health and wellness, Dr. Harris’ views have broadened regarding the connection between fitness and rehabilitation. She understands and implements the importance of proper technique/form as well as the benefits of a good rehabilitation program to allow pain-free movement and a good maintenance program for injury prevention.

CHARLESTON, SC – The Charleston County Coroner’s Office identified Jason Latroy Cooper, 28, of North Charleston, as the man fatally shot during an officer-involved shooting. He died at the scene of the shooting at North Romney Street according to Charleston County Deputy Coroner Supervisor Brittney Martin. An autopsy has been ordered. Cooper died after what Charleston Police Chief Luther Reynolds called an exchange of gunfire at the Bridgeview Village Apartments in the 100 block of North Romney Street.
Reynold held a news conference after the shooting. He said five city police officers involved in the incident are on paid administrative leave while the shooting is being investigated by the South Carolina State Law Enforcement Division. Reynolds said the situation began when a woman called police about a domestic violence situation involving a weapon.
Responding officers arrived on the scene and were met with a person with a gun and after an exchange of gunfire, a Charleston Police officer was shot in the chest area and was taken to the hospital, Reynolds said.
“That officer was wearing a ballistic vest and was examined at the hospital and has already been released,” Reynolds said. “An individual who was involved in the shooting and associated with the initial call is deceased.”
The Berkeley Charleston Dorchester Council of Governments (BCDCOG) is currently updating its Human Services Coordination Plan.
