At Head for the Trails, we believe hiking isn’t just a hobby, it’s a mindset, a reset button, and a way to connect with what really matters. Our mission is simple: to create gear that celebrates the humor, healing, and adventure that comes with life on the trail.
Founded in 2024, Head for the Trails was born out of a deep love for nature and the unexpected connections that happen outdoors, whether it’s a meaningful encounter with a fellow hiker or a quiet moment overlooking an epic view. We exist for those who find joy in the journey, and who believe that public lands, National Parks, and the great outdoors deserve both our reverence and our footprints.
We design premium, trail-inspired apparel made for hikers of all kinds. Whether you're on a mission to travel to all 63 National Parks, you're a thru-hiker, a peak bagger, climbing 14ers, or just starting out in your hiking journey, our goal is to create designs that resonate with your hiking personality. Our tees are crafted for comfort, printed with nature-loving wit, and built to feel like your favorite from the first wear. We want you to Wear What You Love to Do.
Thanks for being on this hiking journey with us, we’re glad you’re here, and we'll see you on the trails.
🌲 One tree planted & a plastic bottle removed from the ocean with every order.

What makes them special:
✅ Soft, breathable heavyweight cotton
✅ Garment-dyed for worn-in feel

We believe in leaving the trails and our oceans better than we found them. That's why every part of our brand is designed with sustainability in mind. Our tees are made to order, reducing waste from mass production and fast fashion, and ensuring each shirt is created just for you.
Through our partnership with theGoodAPI, every purchase plants one tree and removes a plastic bottle from our oceans. Your order is a small step toward protecting the wild places that inspire us — ensuring they’re here for generations of adventurers to come. Together, we’re making every shirt count, one order at a time.🌿
