Meet The Crew

When the ocean + the bay bring people together®

-The Crew, Salty Tymes®

At our core, Salty Tymes® is about connection, giving, exploring & reflecting.

Salty Tymes was born in the places that always bring us back to each other, out on the boat, feet in the sand, wind in our hair, and that deep exhale you only seem to find near the water. The water is our sanctuary. It’s where we bond, where we reset, where we laugh, where we talk about real life, and where we remember what matters most.

But the truth is, the “water feeling” doesn’t only live at the beach or on a boat. It can meet you anywhere, on a porch after a long day, on a quiet morning before the world wakes up, in the car ride with your people, in the small moments when you choose presence over pressure. Salty Tymes is for the families who want more of that: more connection, more calm, more meaning. A reminder to live present, grounded, and together.

Why we’re here

We believe the Earth is God’s creation, and caring for it is a responsibility, not a trend. Clean water isn’t just beautiful; it matters for our communities, our future, and our health.

That’s why our brand focus includes microplastic-free clothing—because what we wear doesn’t just stay with us. Many synthetic fabrics can shed tiny plastic fibers (microfibers) during everyday wear and especially during washing, and those fibers can end up in waterways.

And microplastics don’t simply “disappear.” They can be mistaken for food by marine animals, move through ecosystems, and carry or interact with harmful chemicals, damaging marine life and the balance of the waters we love. Even for people, research is still evolving, but studies and reviews increasingly raise concerns about microplastics and potential health effects like inflammation and endocrine disruption.

So this part of our mission is deeply personal: we want to reduce what we can, where we can, starting with what touches our own bodies and ends up in our shared world. Number 35:33 You may not pollute the land in which you live, for the blood pollutes the land.

A heart for children—without asking for sympathy

Our other calling is just as important: protecting children.

The founders grew up in a home where things were not always safe or stable. What shaped them most wasn’t a desire for anyone to feel sorry, it was the fierce love of a mother who did everything she could to protect her children and keep them moving forward.

That experience planted a conviction we carry quietly but firmly: children deserve safety, steadiness, and someone who will stand up for them. When we hear stories of kids being neglected, mistreated, or unheard—whether in families or even in foster situations, it doesn’t feel far away. It reminds us that “someone needs to care” isn’t a feeling… it’s a responsibility. For every hoodie and crew neck sold, can provide a child with counseling and safety. It can provide emergency care and so much more. James 1:27 : "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world"

Our promise:

With every hoodie or crew, you purchase, you’re part of something that matters.

For every crew and hoodie sold, we make a donation to support child advocacy, foster care, and organizations that stand in the gap for children who need protection and a voice. And we remain committed to supporting efforts that help clean and protect our waters, because stewardship matters, both for people and for the planet.

Family is the heart of it all

We don’t pretend to be perfect. We’re not. We have challenges like everyone else. But we believe family is one of life’s greatest blessings, the people you laugh with and live with, the place where life begins and love never ends. We believe in grace, second chances, and showing up.

Salty Tymes isn’t just something you wear, it’s something you carry with you. A reminder to protect what brings you peace, to hold your people close, and to live with purpose wherever you are.

Bond. Connect. Explore. Reflect.
