A river underfoot, canyon walls on both sides and nowhere to go but upstream.

Our Zion National Park hoodie puts the Slot Canyon Wading Badge on a men's fleece pullover: two hikers making their way up a river through a tall, narrow gorge. Wear it on a cold morning at the trailhead, or give it to the hiker in your life who still has river sand in their boots.

The design: two hikers wading a slot canyon river

The Slot Canyon Wading Badge is one large round print on the chest. Its outer band is a warm sand tone, edged with a thin dark-brown line and a slim white rim, and ZION NATIONAL PARK arcs across the top in sturdy brown capitals.

Inside, two rock walls lean in from the left and right, striped in red-orange, rust and sand like layers of a cake. Only a thin slice of pale sky shows between them at the top. The canyon floor is a light-blue river traced with small white ripples, and two dark figures wade through it. The nearer hiker carries a backpack and leans on a trekking pole; the second walker is farther up the water, small against the cliffs.

A sand-colored banner runs beneath the scene with THE NARROWS in bold letters and a little star at each end, and EST. 1919 sits below it, the year Zion became a national park. The whole scene is drawn in clean, flat shapes with bold outlines, a keepsake of the day the trail was the river itself.

A cozy pullover for cool canyon mornings

• The zion national park hoodie is half cotton and half polyester fleece, 8.0 oz/yd² (271.25 g/m²), a cozy layer when the evening air turns cool
• Soft-spun yarn that forms fewer fuzz balls, so the fleece keeps a tidy face through a season of trips
• A hood with two layers of fabric and a same-color drawcord to pull it close when the wind picks up
• Cuffs and waistband knit with a touch of spandex, so they stretch on easily and hug your wrists and waistline
• A front pouch pocket for a folded trail map, a granola bar or cold fingers

Who it's for

Men who have waded upstream through Zion, canyon walkers planning their first river hike, road-trippers crossing southern Utah and people ticking off a list of parks. It fits a chilly campground breakfast, a scenic drive along the canyon road and a slow evening at home looking back through trip photos. Give it on Father's Day, for a birthday or in the week before a spring hiking trip.
