The Gold Standard of Garden Hoses
After years of battling hoses that kink, tangle, and make watering way harder than it should be, we decided enough was enough. So, we got to work—testing, tweaking, and refusing to accept that hoses have to be annoying. The result? A designer garden hose that looks amazing, lasts forever (probably), and, best of all, never kinks. Because watering your plants shouldn’t feel like a wrestling match.
Not Your Average Garden Hose.
World-Class Design and Performance.
We spent way too much time perfecting these hoses so you don’t have to think about them. Durable materials, rigorous testing, and a borderline obsessive attention to detail mean they just work - flawlessly, every time. Designed to meet the needs of even the most discerning of hose snobs.
Built for Strength and Longevity
Flimsy hoses that kink, crack, and randomly start leaking? Not on our watch. These beauties handle sun, rain, and even accidental driveway runovers like pros—so you can water without the usual hose-related tantrums.
Redefining Elegance
Most hoses are something you hide behind a bush. Ours? They come in designer colors, look ridiculously good, and might just be the best-looking thing in your backyard (no offense to your plants).
Finding the perfect hose is a lot like finding the perfect partner. You want something reliable, drama-free, and let’s be honest - nice to look at. But not all hoses (or relationships) are built to last. So before you commit, follow these steps to make sure you’re choosing the one.
Step 1: Admit You Deserve Better
You’ve dealt with kinks, leaks, and those awful neon eyesores for too long. Time to raise your standards - you deserve a hose that works and looks good.
Step 2: Figure Out What You Need
Do you want something lightweight and easygoing (hello, Softy Expanding Hose) or strong and built to last (meet the Flexy Hybrid Hose)? Know your needs before you fall too hard.
Step 3: Looks Do Matter
Let’s be honest - looks are everything. A hose can be the best in the world, but if it’s ugly, do you really want it in your yard? Get one that works and turns heads. No shame in being a little shallow.
Step 4: Test for Commitment Issues
Flimsy plastic fittings? Prone to cracking under pressure? If a hose can’t handle the elements, it’s not worth your time. Go for something durable - because a real relationship should last.
Step 5: Make It Official
Once you’ve found the one, it’s time to commit. Add to cart, bring it home, and enjoy the easiest, kink-free relationship of your life.

FAQ's
Do these hoses really not kink?
Yep, really. No kinks, no twists, no swearing under your breath while untangling a mess. Just smooth, frustration-free watering every time.
Are these hoses heavy?
Depends on which one you choose! The Softy Expanding Hose is lightweight and easy to maneuver, while the Flexy Hybrid is tougher and sturdier - but still way easier to handle than those old-school rubber nightmares.
Are Fritz Tango's designer garden hoses UV resistant?
Yes, all Fritz Tango hoses are designed with UV-resistant materials to withstand prolonged exposure to the sun. This ensures they maintain their durability, flexibility, and vibrant color even in harsh outdoor conditions. However, we recommend storing your Softy hose out of direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain its longevity and optimal performance.
Do they come with fittings?
Of course! Both hoses come with high-quality, solid brass fittings and a spray nozzle - because we believe a great hose deserves great accessories.
How do they perform in extreme weather conditions?
Fritz Tango garden hoses are engineered for durability and reliability, performing exceptionally well in both hot and cold weather. Their high-quality materials resist cracking, kinking, and wear, ensuring they stand up to the toughest environmental conditions.
Unlike most other hoses, Fritz Tango's stylish garden hoses remain just as easy to use in cold weather. They don’t become rigid or harder to coil, ensuring smooth handling and flexibility no matter the temperature.
Do Fritz Tango hoses come with a warranty?
Yes.
Flexy Hoses: 5-year limited warranty for all Flexy hoses, covering any defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
Softy Expanding Hoses: 1-year limited warranty for all Fritz Tango soft expanding hoses, covering any defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.

How do I clean and maintain my Fritz Tango hose?
Want your Fritz Tango hose to live a long, glorious life? Treat it right with these simple steps:
Give It a Rinse – Hoses get dirty (shocking, we know). Give it a quick rinse now and then. For tougher grime, mild soap and a soft cloth will do the trick. No harsh chemicals—this isn’t a science experiment.
Drain It Like You Mean It – Water left sitting inside = bad. Drain your hose after each use to keep it fresh and frustration-free.
Don’t Roast It – The Softy loves the shade, so store it out of direct sunlight when possible. The Flexy? Tougher, but still appreciates a little cover.
Winter Is Not Its Friend – Freezing water = hose heartbreak. If you live somewhere that turns into an ice cube (our condolences), drain your hose completely and store it inside before winter hits. Future you will be so grateful.
Check the Fittings – Solid brass fittings are built to last, but a quick check for debris or wear keeps them working like a dream.
Follow these steps, and your Fritz Tango hose will be by your side—kink-free, leak-free, and looking fabulous—for years to come.
Can Fritz Tango hoses be repaired if they get damaged?
Got a damaged Softy or Flexy? Don’t panic, don’t toss it, and definitely don’t try to duct tape it (we see you). Just send us an email with a clear photo, and we’ll walk you through the fix. Because a good hose deserves a second chance.
