Mossy Oak and AFTCO have long shared a deep-rooted legacy of innovation in the outdoors. Since the 1980s, Bottomland® has been the foundation of concealment, a pattern trusted by generations of hunters. Around that same time, AFTCO introduced The Original Fishing Short—the first true angling short with a built-in pliers pocket, setting the standard for performance on the water.

In 1986, Toxey Haas had the vision to take a handful of Mississippi dirt, sticks and leaves and transform it into a brand new type of camouflage. Comprised entirely of natural earth elements and colors, the resulting design was unlike any pattern that had ever come before it, and gave hunters the power to obliterate their outline while effortlessly blending into the environment. Mossy Oak Bottomland® was born.

Family-owned and operated, AFTCO delivers unmatched quality, performance, and reliability. Our precision-built tackle and performance fishing clothing are designed to withstand the harshest elements.
