Why You’ll Love It
This is for the one who doesn’t need a big plan to disappear for a while. Just a little breeze, a little distance, and maybe a view that makes everything in your head finally quiet down. The kind of person who can stare at a shoreline for ten minutes straight and call that a productive afternoon. No talking just to fill space, no chasing noise, no need to make the day more complicated than it has to be.
Island Air feels like that moment when the weather shifts and suddenly everything gets lighter. The faded blue palms, the distant islands, the shoreline stretching out like it has nowhere urgent to be, it all carries that same easy pull. It has the look of something washed up from an older Florida, sun-faded in the best way, simple enough to say everything without needing a single word on it. And the tee itself wears exactly how you want it to, soft from the first pull-on, easy on the skin, light enough for hot days, and comfortable in that way that makes it end up back on the chair instead of in the drawer. Part of the Island Hopper set, it keeps that same worn, nostalgic escape energy, just quieter, calmer, and a little more far gone.
This one doesn’t ask for attention. It just makes it hard to go back to whatever you were doing before.
Make It A Set
Built to go together. Easy to pair, easy to wear, better as a set.
Vintage Soul. Daily Comfort. Inspired Tees.
Lightweight by Design
We built Salt + Threads around a premium 4.2 oz Airlume cotton tee because heavier shirts just don’t make sense in Florida heat. Soft, breathable and lightweight without feeling flimsy — made to hold up and stay in your regular rotation.
Premium from the Start
We use the same premium tee for every design, with a cleaner fit, quality construction, and a feel that’s a step above the average graphic shirt.
Once you know your Salt + Threads size, you’re set. Every design starts with the same tee, so the fit stays familiar from one shirt to the next.
Designed Here. Vintage at Heart.
We design our tees ourselves, drawing from the coastal life around us — fishing, surfing, boating, space launches, local hangouts and the easygoing character of Cocoa Beach.
Every graphic starts with something we actually know, love or live. Vintage-inspired, coastal-minded, and made to feel like a tee worth wearing.

What Are Your Tees Made Of?
All of our tees are incredibly soft, breathable, lightweight, and easy to wear every day. As a general rule: Solid colors like Black, Natural, and Navy are 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton, while Heathers are 52% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton / 48% polyester.
A few color exceptions to that rule:
- Heather Prism Colors: 99% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton / 1% polyester

You can always find the exact color name for each tee under Color on the product page before adding your next favorite tee to your cart.
I’m between sizes. What should I do?
If you’re between sizes, we usually recommend going up one size. It gives you a little more ease through the chest and middle without overthinking it.
I carry more weight in my middle. Which way should I lean?
If you carry more weight through the middle, or your usual size sometimes feels snug in the belly or chest, we recommend going up one size.
What about broad shoulders?
If shirts often pull across your shoulders or chest, we recommend going up one size.
