Braunton-based surfwear company Saltrock is gearing up for autumn

Braunton-based Saltrock is gearing up for autumn

Saltrock, England’s ‘original, authentic Surfing clothing brand’ was first launched in 1988 by South African surfers Angus and Ross Thomson. After leaving their homeland in the early 1980s in search of big waves, beaches and adventure, they followed the surf culture to the UK and eventually settled in Braunton, North Devon, where they still remain today. When it was launched, Saltrock originally specialised in T-shirts, with Angus in a managerial role and Ross in charge of the design. The brand grew to include a full clothing range and accessories line and now distributes nationwide, with the customer base extending to the Canary Islands. There are now seven Saltrock Stores in the UK, the brand is sold through John Lewis and Debenhams, and they have just launched a fantastic new-look website and online shop at www.saltrock.com.

The new collection provides warmth and style in the form of gorgeous fabrics, chunky knits and fresh prints and graphics

This autumn, Saltrock is relaunching its brand with a fabulous new collection of clothes and accessories. For autumn/winter 2010, Saltrock offers an escape from day-to-day conformity, which stays true to its unique, authentic surf heritage. The new collection provides warmth and style in the form of gorgeous fabrics, chunky knits and fresh prints and graphics. Rich, mellow tones combined with intelligent design and stylish touches create a modern take on classic surf design.The men’s collection is full of heavy-weight, high-quality fabrics and vintage washes and the women’s sees a range of snug hoodies, cute tops and gorgeous woollen beanies, a celebration of the changing of the British seasons. Once again, Saltrock offers a fantastic selection for its fashion-savvy younger audience, with all-over prints in dainty palettes for girls and a heavily surf- and skate-wear influenced range for boys, to keep them looking stylish all winter long.
