Boardbags

Salt of the Earth boardbags are made to protect your beloved surfboard from scratches, dents and dings. If you are the kind of person who always has a board in the car with you "just incase", then why not cover it with some stylish upcycled fabrics.



From Portuguese markets to Sri Lankan side alleys and closer to home, we strive to find the prettiest fabrics possible to make a snug cover for your board.



The process of making them is very rewarding, as we get to play with color combinations and fabric textures, each subtly complementing one another.



Our boardbags are finished off with a neat drawstring closure on the tail, and can be fully customized to meet your specific needs.

New Beginnings

Salt of the Earth is about fresh, pure, honest design.

We are an eco-concious cottage industry emerging from a deep love of travel, nature, surfing and simple design.

Based in Strandhill, in the North West of Ireland, its the simple things like long evening shadows, dune grass blowing in the breeze, winter clouds and the barren beauty of the Irish landscape that inspire us to create  unique hand-crafted items for you.

One off designs made from top quality materials, no compromise.


Beauty is all around us
