The Mantle Collection is inspired by the shared anatomy that defines rays - the broad, flattened body formed by enlarged pectoral fins that allows them to glide with precision, control, and grace. Known scientifically as the mantle, this structure is the foundation of how stingrays and eagle rays move through their environment.

This collection features scientifically accurate designs showcasing species such as eagle rays, southern stingrays, and blue-spotted stingrays, translated into wearable pieces that honor both form and function. Every item in the Mantle Collection blends marine biology with sustainable materials, designed for life in and around the water.

Rooted in research and crafted with intention, Mantle reflects The Salty Lab’s commitment to science-led storytelling, conservation-minded design, and apparel that connects people more deeply to the animals that inspire it.
