Ann Arbor, Michigan

Ann Arbor earned the Tree Town nickname honestly: the canopy over the Old West Side is so thick in July that the streets feel like tunnels, and the Arb, all 123 acres of it, runs right down to the Huron River from the edge of campus. Kerrytown has the Saturday farmers' market and the best bagels in the state, Main Street fills its patios the first warm night of April, and the Michigan Theater marquee has been lighting up Liberty Street since 1928. On a football Saturday the whole town moves in one direction, and on every other day it is a quiet, bookish, slightly overeducated place that people find hard to leave.

Our Ann Arbor collection leans into the trees. The crewneck sweatshirt carries a single leaf badge in forest green and warm cream with a gold accent and the 1824 founding year. The tee is lighter, just the city name and a small leaf, right for a float through the Argo Cascades or a loop around Gallup Park. The mug and sticker set use the same artwork.

Everything is original, printed to order in the USA and shipped in a few days. It is for the students who stayed, the townies who were here first, and the alumni scattered across the country who still get a little homesick every October.
