At Playing Hooki, bright colours aren’t just a style choice — they’re a safety choice.
Whether you’re fishing offshore, walking the headland, chasing kids down the beach or standing knee‑deep in a river, visibility matters. What you wear can make a real difference.
VISIBILITY = SAFETY
Bright colours are easier to see in changing light, glare, chop and shadow. On boats, beaches and riverbanks, high‑contrast colours help you stand out against water, sand and bush.
That means:
• You’re easier for mates to spot
• You’re easier to see from a distance
• You’re quicker to find if something goes wrong
This matters for everyone — but especially for women, kids and families.
THE WATER EATS NEUTRALS
Ocean blues, river greens and sandy tones swallow beige, grey and muted colours fast. Bright colours cut through the environment and stay visible longer.
That’s why marine safety gear uses high‑visibility colours — because they work. We just design ours to look good too.
BRIGHT COLOURS FOR KIDS = SMARTER SAFETY
If you’ve got kids, you already know how fast they move.
Bright rashies make it easier to:
• Spot kids in the surf
• Count heads quickly
• Keep eyes on them from a distance
Peace of mind matters when you’re on the water.
Our Rashies:
Designed with bold colourways and high‑contrast prints so you stay visible in the surf, on the boat and along the shoreline — without sacrificing comfort or style.
Kids & Youth Collection:
Bright, fun designs that help kids stand out in the water and on the beach, making them easier to spot and safer around the water.
Statement prints that add sun protection and visibility, whether you’re fishing, boating or just playing hooki for the day.
Try our brightest collections - Neons & Brights or Y2K - Like You Want It or maybe Pure Rock for edge.
BRIGHT COLOURS CHANGE HOW YOU FEEL
Bright colours don’t just help others see you — they change how you feel.
They:
• Boost confidence
• Lift mood
• Make outdoor time feel intentional
• Turn safety gear into something you want to wear
FISHING IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN
Fishing is sunburnt noses, salty hair, early mornings and big stories. It’s not meant to feel dull.
Bright colours remind you why you’re out there in the first place.
FINAL WORD
At Playing Hooki, bright colours are part of how we fish, live and design.
Because being seen matters.
Because feeling confident matters.
And because life’s too short to blend into the background.
Playing Hooki — wear the good days.
