“Vertical Was the Easy Part” — Unisex Crewneck Sweatshirt

Classic relaxed unisex fit with ribbed collar, cuffs and waistband. Cotton-rich fleece with a soft brushed inside, about 8.4 oz/yd² (285 g/m²); the exact blend can vary by colour.

Design story & product details

There is nothing under the climber’s boots but open air, because the ice above him leans out past straight up. He hangs from two axes beneath an overhang dripping with long icicles, one gold crampon kicking at nothing. Below him, the frozen letters give the punchline: vertical was the easy part. Anyone who has made it up a wall and then hit the roof will get the joke.

The frosted lettering, hung with icicles of its own, makes this sweatshirt a good Christmas gift for the ice climber in your family.
