THE MAN OF THE MOMENT. πππ£
What a tournament. What a player.
Massive congratulations to Quinton de K**k on being crowned the SA20 Player of the Tournament! π₯
From dominating the pitch to landing giants in the deep, QDK only operates at the highest level. We are incredibly proud to see a legend of the game trusting his Salty Dog gear when the pressure is off and the lines are tight.
Performance recognizes performance.
Drop a π₯ in the comments to send your congrats to the legend! π

Destination: New Zealand. π³πΏπ¦
When a crew of South African anglers heads to the South Island to chase trophy trout, they don't pack average gear.
We designed this custom kit specifically for their expedition. Featuring a stylized Maori fish hook motif on the chest and a unique "Tour" emblem on the backβuniting the Kiwi and the Springbok for the 2026 trip.
Clean. Technical. Built for the long haul.
Whether you are heading to the Seychelles, Mauritius, or NZ, we design the kit to match the destination.

We used to measure a good fishing trip by how full the hatch was. Now, maybe we should measure it by what we leave behind.
We did a deep dive into the local projects fighting for our waters, from the ORI Tagging Project to the removal of Ghost Gear.
Question for the crew: What is the one thing you do on your boat to practice conservation? Let us know in the comments.

30 Years. One Crew. π΄ββ οΈ
They call themselves "The Six Stooges," but the bond is serious. This crew has been fishing the same waters together for three decades. Through the storms, the skunked trips, the PBs, and the scars.
We designed this shirt to match their story. Dark. Gritty. Earned. Featuring a custom hand-drawn Kob on the back to represent the target they have chased for years.
Respect isn't bought. It's earned on the water.

The standard has been set. π²πΊπ
Prepping a boat for Mauritius is a massive investment. Fuel, entries, tackle. Don't let the crew down at the final hurdle.
Proud to outfit Team Inyathi for the upcoming South Indian Ocean Billfish Competition
They have won this prestigious event in the past, and they know that in the heat of the tropics, gear matters. We designed a technical kit that matches their ambition -- lightweight, high-performance, and built for the podium.
If you are fishing the international circuit this year, make sure your team looks the part.

The Neon Topo Series.
Here is the full look. We wanted a design that pops offshore, so we mixed dark contour lines with serious neon strikes.
This Wednesday, this print goes live on everything. Choose your style, choose your fit.
Launch: Wednesday, 9AM.

We went deep for this one. Something loud is coming up from the contour lines. Turn on post notifications. You don't want to miss the strike. π

We launched Salty Dog 2.0 this morning. While we were busy watching the systems, this email landed in the inbox.
Gilly Elliot is a legend at Umngazi River Bungalows. He is on the water every single day. He knows what cheap gear feels like, and he knows what quality feels like.
To have him wearing the new Salty Dog gear with pride is the only stamp of approval we need.
Go earn your salt.
