Tucson is ringed by five mountain ranges and roughly two million saguaros, and it has been a town since 1775, which makes it older than the country around it. Saguaro National Park brackets the city east and west, Sabino Canyon runs a creek through the foothills of the Catalinas, and the road up Mount Lemmon climbs from cactus to pine forest in an hour, dropping thirty degrees along the way. Mission San Xavier del Bac has stood white against the desert since 1797, Barrio Viejo keeps its painted adobe rows, and Fourth Avenue is where you go for a Sonoran dog, bacon-wrapped and buried in beans, at midnight. Locals call it the Old Pueblo and mean it affectionately.

Our Tucson collection is drawn from the Sonoran Desert. The crewneck sweatshirt carries a saguaro badge in cactus green and sand with a sunset-coral accent and the 1775 founding year. The tee is the everyday piece, the city name over a thin ridgeline, right for a Gates Pass sunset or a winter morning on the trail. The mug and sticker set share the same artwork.

Everything is original, printed to order in the USA and shipped in a few days. It is for the people who have lived through forty monsoon seasons, the students who came for four years and stayed for twenty, and everyone who left Tucson and still cannot find a decent Sonoran dog anywhere else.

Why we love Tucson

  • ✦Saguaro National Park sits on both sides of the city
  • ✦Mount Lemmon drops 30 degrees between the desert floor and the summit
  • ✦Mission San Xavier del Bac has stood since 1797
  • ✦Sonoran dogs are the best late-night food in the Southwest

Best time to go: Late October through April for trail weather, Sonoran dogs on a patio and the clearest night skies; mid-May for saguaro blossoms crowning every cactus in the park.

Tucson apparel FAQ

Is this official Tucson or University of Arizona merchandise?+

No. Everything here is original artwork by independent designers. We are not affiliated with the City of Tucson, the University of Arizona, the National Park Service or any local business.

Does Tucson really need a sweatshirt?+

Desert nights do: temperatures drop thirty degrees after sunset from November through March, and Mount Lemmon gets real snow. The crewneck is a midweight 50/50 cotton-poly fleece, and the tee is 100% ring-spun cotton for the other nine months.

How long does shipping to southern Arizona take?+
