Designer Pickleball Apparel: Saltie Rose Celebrates Our First Year

Saltie Rose is a high-performance pickleball apparel brand that celebrates the strength and confidence of women over forty. We focus on creating designer pickleball clothes and activewear that empowers women, is inclusive of all, and stays true to who we are. As a women-led business, these values guide everything we do.

Saltie Rose was started almost a year ago by a woman in her sixties, proving that it's never too late to chase your dreams. She wanted to create age-inclusive clothing that helps women perform their best on the court while celebrating their unique style and personality. Saltie Rose is all about celebration—and what an amazing journey it's been for us since we launched nearly a year ago!

Our Collection

No more yoga pants and t-shirts on the pickleball court. Our designs combine the perfect blend of style, comfort, and functionality, ensuring that women of all ages can express themselves confidently while performing at their best. Every piece, from sporty shorts with pockets that don’t ride up, versatile tunics, and dynamic tops to trendy tracksuits and pink bomber pickleball jackets, is designed with Pickleball in mind.

We've tailored our collection to the sport's unique demands to maximize women's options for playing on indoor or outdoor pickleball courts. With our mix-and-match separates, there's a perfect fit and style for everyone. Radiant hues and captivating patterns inject energy into every pickleball outfit, embodying our dedication to empowering women in every facet of their lives, both on and off the court.
