Saltrock Surfwear is a British surfwear company, originating in Penzance, Cornwall. Created by brothers Angus and Ross Thompson, the idea was to generate money to fund their passion of surfing. The brothers moved the company to Devon in 1992 when surfer Carl Priscott joined the board.
They recently constructed a new headquarters building in Braunton, North Devon. This serves as a factory shop as well as a distribution depot for merchandise being sent out across the country.
Their mascot as seen on many of their products is a curly haired surfer boy called Tok.
