Steel Blue Keep Sausalito Salty Unisex Short Sleeve T Shirt

The "Salty Since Before It Was Cool" Unisex Graphic Tee

Let’s clear something up right away before the internet misinterprets this shirt.

If you look up the word "salty" online today, it usually describes someone who is a bit snappy, easily irritated, holding a massive grudge, or generally being a spicy, slightly unpleasant human being.

We would like the record to show: Our fisherman was "salty" long before the internet went and changed the definition.

When we say "Keep Sausalito Salty," we aren't telling you to go out and be a jerk to your neighbors. This design predates the modern slang by a mile. To us, "salty" has a much truer, historic meaning. First, it means keeping it local by celebrating the independent shops, characters, and artists that give our town its heart. Second, it represents the actual salt water. We are a historic community perched right on the edge of a gorgeous, breezy, salt-water bay, and if you stand close enough to the ferry landing, you’ll quite literally get a face full of it. Finally, it’s a rallying cry to keep Sausalito unchanged, protecting our classic, laid-back maritime village atmosphere from being overrun by corporate, cookie-cutter modern gloss.

So no, the bearded old fisherman on the front isn't upset about a comment section on social media. He’s just a classic, weather-tested soul who loves the bay, smokes his pipe in peace, and wants our beautiful village to retain its true, gritty coastal charm.

The Material Specs

Whether you’re a born-and-raised local, a frequent visitor, or just someone who appreciates a good vintage vibe, this premium, ultra-wearable tee is a perfect catch. It features a beautifully detailed circular graphic of our iconic fisherman screen-printed in crisp white right on the center chest.

Crafted from a high-quality, lightweight blend of 50% cotton, 25% polyester, and 25% rayon, this shirt is incredibly soft to the touch right out of the box. The advanced tri-blend fabric means it offers great stretch, excellent shape retention, and—best of all—it will not shrink in the wash.

Designed with a comfortable, relaxed unisex crewneck fit that looks great on everyone, it is available in adult sizing Small through Double Extra Large (S–XXL).

Care Instructions

Machine washable and tumble dry low. Rest assured, while the shirt is incredibly durable, the fabric itself won't get "salty"—it stays soft, comfortable, and perfectly broken-in for years to come.
