Ripline

Rip Line Apparel was founded by two anglers with over 45 years of combined fishing experience. Every concept created under Rip Line Apparel stems from real life experiences.

We started Rip Line to develop the ideas and images we think anglers can really relate to. Every concept is an original idea developed by Rip Line and is not available through any other clothing line.

We have fished from Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, New York and locations all over Florida. From inshore to offshore, freshwater and everywhere in between, we have been there!

Watch us while we grow!!!!!! We will be adding new and exciting clothing concepts for men, women, and children, so check back often to see what’s coming next!

About The Artist

Ripline Apparel has asked Peter F. Colosi of Rochester NY to create a series of unique signature shirts for the avid fisherman. Mr Colosi is a freelance Art Director, Illustrator and Graphic Designer who during his career in the advertising industry was involved in the design and creation of many advertisements, illustrations, brochures and logos for many local and international companies. Including Bausch & Lomb, Eastman Kodak, Getinge Castle, Champion Products, and Rochester Gas and Electric to name a few. He is now semi-retired and is best noted for his water colors and most recently his digitally enhanced photographic images "Collide-O-Scopic Images" when art, photography and technology collide to create a beautifully formed image. These images have garnered him many awards.

"This new challenge from Ripline has been both different and exciting for me, since I am not a fisherman. The fishing expertise of the Ripline organization has enabled me to create images that depict the fun and joy of fishing in a sometimes humorus way still capturing the essence of the fish being depicted. I hope you enjoy these high quality products as much as I have enjoyed doing the illustrations."

Thanks, Ripline,
Peter F. Colosi
