ABOUT US
Born of Salt, Built for Adventure.
Founded by friends
SaltBorne was founded by friends Thomas and Sam, brought together by a shared love for the ocean and adventure. What began as pushing each other on dives, surf sessions, and trips has grown into a brand that celebrates progress, connects community, and supports people chasing their passions. Every piece of gear is tested on real adventures and built to hold up to the lifestyle that inspired it - and this is only the beginning. We’re excited to keep building alongside those who share our love for the sea.
Built on community
Huge thanks to everyone who’s helped bring SaltBorne to life. From the friends who’ve bought our gear, shared feedback, and supported us from day one, to the crew who rolled up their sleeves and made it happen - we couldn’t do this without you. Alena designed our logo, Mia designed our shirts, Taylor built the website, Jake captures our photography. Big shout out as well to our friends who model our gear - Michael, Kendal, Laurel, Irene, Samantha, and Emily. SaltBorne is a community effort, and we’re stoked to keep building it together.
Committed to our roots
Born in Southern California, SaltBorne is grounded in the saltwater lifestyle - from surfing and diving to fishing and beyond. We’re proud to support our local community of ocean-driven adventurers and athletes, and committed to protecting the waters that inspire us.
More Than a Brand - It’s a Way of Life
For those who rise with the swell, dive into the deep, and stay salty no matter where the tide takes them.
