These t-shirts were the hit of the Seniors For Nature Canoe Club our opening day on the Humber River!
It's a question I always end up asking on every portage & hike…are we at the halfway point yet?! 😆 I love the burgundy colour of this shirt. And the tees are a high quality, fits according to size and so comfy!
I bought 3 tees and very happy with them all. Thanks
In love with this minimalist line art design. It is cotton, but it's great for days when the weather isn't so harsh and I wanna be comfy.
Wore this on a 7-day loop and got asked about it at so many portages. Instant conversation starter.
This shirt was made for me. I've taken three wrong turns on portage trails this summer alone and I wear it completely unironically. Soft, fits great, and my paddling crew thought it was hilarious. Already planning to order another colour.
Solid shirt, fabric is great and the design always gets a laugh. Took a bit longer to arrive than expected but worth the wait.
Got this for my husband before our first canoe trip. He brings it every trip now!
Honestly just a really good shirt. Soft right out of the package and the design is exactly what it looks like in the photos.
Lmao this shirt is too real. By around day 3 of our last trip nobody was winning any awards in the smell department. It's a running joke in our crew.
What we make
Built for
after the
carry.
Built for after the portage, not during it. Each shirt is made from quality ring-spun Comfort Colors cotton that gets better with every campfire, every campsite, and every post-paddle debrief.
You already have the performance gear. This is what you put on when the suffering is officially over.
Bottom line -- these are shirts you simply can't find anywhere else.

Cotton
What Goes Into
every shirt.
Built for the tribe. Worth every dollar.
Designed by people who've actually done a portage.
Every design starts on a trail, not in a boardroom. If it doesn't land with someone who's been there, it doesn't ship.
Premium cotton. Prints built to outlast the trip.
100% ring-spun Comfort Colors cotton. Heavyweight, broken-in feel right out of the package. The print survives the wash cycle, the campfire smoke, and the next five seasons.
Designs you won't find at MEC, REI, or anywhere else on earth.
Wearable inside jokes for people who've earned them. The right person at the trailhead will stop you. That's the whole point.
Who we are
Why
Portage
Tees.
We're not a lifestyle brand. We're a consequence of your choices brand. Built by people who've actually done the portage, eaten the wrap in the rain, and argued about pack weight way longer than necessary.
We make the shirts that the tribe recognizes. The ones that make a stranger at the put-in stop and say "oh my god, yes." If you get the joke, you've probably earned it.
Built for the trail
Comfort made
for the
wild.
Whether you're having a snack mid-portage, setting up camp, or debriefing the day around the fire -- our tees are made for the people who packed too much, chose the hard route, and would do it all again.
Gear that holds up out there. And looks good doing it.
The cotton thing
Your new
favourite
camp shirt.
Everyone knows the rule -- cotton kills. But let's be honest, there's always room for a good cotton tee in the pack. These aren't performance layers. They're the shirt you pull out of the dry bag when the suffering is officially over.
Soft, durable, and worth the extra weight.
Real people
Customer
service that
doesn't suck.
Got a question? We're real people who paddle, portage, and pack too much -- just like you. No bots, no runaround, no waiting three business days for a response that doesn't actually help.
