Delta Apparel, Inc. (NYSE American: DLA), a leading provider of core activewear, lifestyle apparel, and on-demand digital print strategies, today announced that Salt Life, its authentic, aspirational lifestyle brand, will expand its product line to include its first home furnishings collection – Salt Life Home.

Jeff Stillwell, Salt Life’s President, further commented, “Salt Life’s brand recognition continues to grow across the United States and internationally, and we constantly look to create ways for consumers to connect with Salt Life’s unique ocean aesthetic.

Salt Life Home will offer a range of comfortable, breezy linens and sturdy wooden furniture. It also offers the comfort of coastal living with a wide variety of designs that can be adapted to varying home styles. Salt Life’s consumer-favorite beach apparel serves as an inspiration for the collection, which will feature textures and patterns reminiscent of seaside views and colors ranging from soothing neutrals to bold splashes of ocean blue and sunset red.
