Shopping for someone who'd rather be on a trail? Hikers are easy to spot and hard to buy for. They already own the boots, and they're picky about gear. A graphic tee is the gift that works every time: it's personal, it's useful on and off the trail, and it doesn't need to fit into a pack. Every pick below is under $40.
For the hiker who hikes to clear their head
Hike More Stress Less T-Shirt: a clean, minimalist graphic of mountains, pines and a lone hiker under a rising sun. It's a quiet reminder of why they head outside in the first place, and it's easy to wear every day.
For the one with a sense of humour
Take a Hike Bear T-Shirt: a hand-drawn bear with a knapsack and trekking pole under the words "Take a Hike". It's funny without being loud, and it works just as well at the trailhead as at the coffee shop.
For the adventurer who's always planning the next trip
Into the Wild Mountain Tee: sunlit peaks and evergreens with "Into the Wild & Never Look Back". A good fit for the friend with a bucket list of summits.
For the camper who loves to unplug
Offline and Feeling Fine Tee: a retro sunset, pine trees and wildflowers. Made for the person whose idea of a perfect weekend is a campsite with no signal.
For desert and canyon hikers
Keep Wild T-Shirt: warm, vintage desert artwork with cactus and mountains. Ideal for anyone who hikes the Southwest, or dreams about it.
For national park collectors
If they keep a list of parks they've visited, a vintage poster tee from one on that list makes a thoughtful gift. Try the Grand Canyon National Park Vintage Poster Tee, the Yosemite Vintage Poster T-Shirt or the Explore Colorado Elk T-Shirt.
For the wildlife spotter
Mountain Lion Watercolor T-Shirt: a soft watercolor cougar among mossy greens. It's for the hiker who stops every hundred metres because they think they heard something in the trees.
For the one who notices the small things
Stay Wild Dragonfly T-Shirt: a hand-drawn dragonfly over a soft sunburst. A gentle design for the hiker who stops for every wildflower and pond.
A few gifting tips
- Not sure of their size? Our tees have a relaxed unisex fit. If they're between sizes, going one size up is the safer choice for layering.
- Pick a colour they already wear. Earthy shades like forest green, military green, sand and charcoal go with most outdoor wardrobes.
- Match the design to their favourite trail. Desert hiker? Go for the cactus. Mountain person? Pick the peaks. It shows you've been paying attention.
