Portland, Oregon

Portland is a city of bridges, roses and people who will defend their neighborhood coffee shop to the death. Twelve bridges cross the Willamette, from the gothic green towers of the St. Johns Bridge to the cable-stayed Tilikum Crossing that carries trains, bikes and feet but no cars. Forest Park is 5,200 acres of trail inside the city limits, the International Rose Test Garden has been blooming in Washington Park since 1917, and on a clear day Mount Hood floats over the east side like a painted backdrop. The food carts, the bookstores, the breweries and the rain all take turns being the thing people talk about.

Our Portland collection is built for the drizzle. The crewneck sweatshirt carries a bridge-and-rose badge in moss green and rain-cloud grey with the 1851 incorporation year, heavy enough for a November walk up Mount Tabor. The tee is a cleaner Portland wordmark with a single bridge tower for a sunny June afternoon, which locals treat as a civic holiday. The mug and the sticker share the same art for the desk and the bike frame.

Everything is original, printed to order in the USA. It is for the Eastside and the Westside, for the lifers who remember when Alberta was quiet, for the transplants who came for the bike lanes and stayed for the Gorge, and for everyone who misses the rain more than they expected to.
