The grind behind a flawless camo finish is real, and we’re finally ready to show you why our GORE™ OPTIFADE™ Marsh and Timber camouflage patterns boats look the way you always wanted them to. We share how scaling stencils to a full hull changes everything, why color tuning on big surfaces is brutal, and what it took to make a factory paint job that actually matches your Sitka kit. If you’ve been settling for solid colors because patterned boats never lined up, that compromise ends here—Marsh is right behind Timber for those open-water and coastal hunts.

We also pull back the curtain on a tight, 100-piece run of custom RNT Mondo calls. Clean bone colorway, crisp branding, and the kind of exclusivity collectors hunt down all year. These calls drew a crowd even during the build, and we’ve got fun twists planned around serial numbers, giveaways, and how to snag one before they disappear. Think heirloom gear you’ll still be proud of a decade from now, whether it lives on your lanyard or your shelf.

Safety isn’t an afterthought. Our new life jackets match your camo and fit like something you won’t rip off mid-run. Once you dial the straps, they stay put, go on without twists, and use an auto-inflate trigger you can trust. At $239.99, you get real comfort, solid construction, and a look that blends with your boat instead of clashing. We round things out with rugged bag boards built for camp life, plus fresh hats, hoodies, and shirts hitting the gear shop. Inventory moves fast, so keep your eyes on the drop.

that's new is the OptiFadepaint.
What y'all think about that?

SPEAKER_00 (00:48):
Man, the uh the process that that's what gets
me.
It's the process, the behind thescenes trial and error that we
put in on these things to getthem to turn out uh like they
have, and man, they are justit's the best Optifade paint job
out there.
No, no if, ands, or buts.
Hands down.
It looks really good.
We've gotten great feedback fromall our dealers, everybody

(01:10):
that's seen one in person.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12):
Uh it really pleased with how that's I think it's
people it's something peoplewanted, have been wanting for a
long time.
No doubt.
How many times y'all think we'vewalked to the paint booth to
look at different paint jobs andtell, nope, redo it.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 (01:25):
I mean, we tried and tried and tried, and you know,
we spent our time doing it to doit right, you know.
Well, what people don't realize,like you put uh you paint
something small, paint somethingbig, it all looks different.
Big different.
So you gotta adjust the colors.

SPEAKER_00 (01:36):
I mean, so many, so many variables that went into
it, the the correct paint, thecorrect scale of the of the um
stencil, uh, the the patterning,you know, that wasn't perfect
right uh from the from theinstructions we got.
We had to do a lot of trial anderror on uh the layering of
everything.
It was just a lot that went intoit to get that.

(01:59):
Once we figured out thestencils, we had to figure out
colors then.
Exactly.

SPEAKER_03 (02:02):
Yeah, it was a process that took us a while to
really get our heads wrappedaround it.
Wasn't too sure if it was goingto happen.

store multiple times.
Yeah, yeah.
Changing colors, changingcolors, something wasn't mixing
colors, yeah.
Mixing colors, yeah.

hates, you know, if they'rewearing sick of gear, they're
wearing, you know, the timber.
You don't want to jump into aboat that don't match.

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
