Iraq War veteran wants to help veterans reconnect with adventure

In a world where grooming products are often overloaded with synthetic ingredients and unnecessary complexity, one veteran set out to change the game. Tide and Timber is more than just an all-natural men’s hair and body balm—it’s a lifestyle, a return to the essentials, and a tribute to those who live life on their own terms.

The brand’s founder, a former Infantryman who served in Iraq during “The Surge,” in 2007, knows a thing or two about resilience, discipline, and the need for reliable gear.

After his time in uniform, he found solace in the great outdoors, immersing himself in surfing, spearfishing, and exploring the untamed wilderness.

But when it came to grooming, he saw a gap—most products on the market were either filled with chemicals or lacked the versatility needed for an active, adventure-driven lifestyle.

That’s where Tide and Timber was born. Crafted with all-natural ingredients, it’s designed for men who don’t have time for a complicated grooming routine.

Whether you’re fresh out of the ocean, packing up for a hunt, or conducting military training, this all-in-one balm works as a hair styling paste, face, skin, and beard lotion, and offers Zinc Oxide protection from the sun.

With antibacterial and anti-dandruff properties, it keeps your hair, skin, and beard in peak condition, no matter the conditions.

But Tide and Timber isn’t just about personal care—it’s about community. Built on the values of toughness, authenticity, and a love for the wild, it speaks to men who push limits, embrace challenges, and refuse to settle for anything less than the best. The brand continues to evolve while staying true to its mission of simplicity and effectiveness.

He envisions Tide and Timber as more than just a brand—he hopes it will one day become a powerful force for giving back to veterans. His goal is to invest in or create an outdoor program that helps military veterans rediscover the excitement, camaraderie, and sense of purpose they often lose when transitioning to civilian life. By providing opportunities to reconnect with the outdoors and their fellow veterans, he aims to create a space where veterans can continue to experience the bond and adventure that shaped their military careers.

For the warrior, the explorer, and the man who carves his own path—Tide and Timber is more than a product. It’s a way of life.
