Picking a gift for a rafter
A rafter is someone who spends their free time on moving water, usually in a raft with a paddle, a helmet and a few friends who have agreed to trust them with the river. Rafting seasons tend to follow snowmelt and summer rains, so the people who do it often plan whole trips around the water level, and their weekends can disappear into long drives to a put-in. A rafter's gear takes a beating, which is why a gift they'll actually use is something warm, durable and ready for the next trip: a hoodie for the cold dawn at the launch, a tee for the day on the river, a mug for the coffee before the shuttle. Putting the word Rafter on it says you noticed what they do, and a second line for the river they run most or the year they started makes it theirs.
Rafter gift questions
Can I add a river name or the year they started rafting?
Yes. Many designs have a second line for a river, a trip name or a year. Type it in and the preview will show how it sits under the word.
Is there a kids version for a young paddler?
Yes. There are Kids T-shirt and Kids Dark T-shirt designs with the Rafter word, so a young rafter can match the adults.
What's a good gift for a rafter who has everything?
Something for the trip itself works well, like a hoodie for the cold mornings or a mug for the drive home. Personalizing it with their home river or a favorite run makes it feel like their own.
What sizes do the rafter shirts come in?
Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
How long does a rafter gift take to arrive?
Each order is printed after you place it, in 2 to 4 business days, then ships by ground in 3 to 5 business days. The product page shows the delivery window for today's orders.
What if the print has a mistake?
If we print something different from the preview you approved, or it arrives damaged, we reprint it free.
