You can climb in any shirt.

That’s not the point.

When climbing becomes part of your life, you want something that feels like you.

Ch*lk U makes crazy-soft climbing tees, drawn by climbers, for climbers.

We wear what we love.

Love a band? You wear the shirt.

Love a team? You wear the jersey.

But walk into a climbing gym and we’re wearing anime, beer shirts, old gym tees, and whatever was clean.

We always thought that was kind of weird.

Then climbing becomes your thing.

You go once.

Then twice.

Then your gym starts to feel like home.

The people there become your people.

Your week starts to change around when you can climb.

And the stranger next to you is yelling “COME ON!” like they’ve known you for years.

At some point, you stop being someone who goes climbing.

You’re a climber.

So where was the shirt for this?

We looked.

A lot of climbing shirts felt like one of three things:
Too loud.
Too cheap.
Or way too serious.

We didn’t want a shirt that literally screamed, “LOOK, I CLIMB.”

We wanted one that another climber could see and just get.

So our family made it.

We’re Brandon, Rachel, Mark, and Ethan.

We’re a family in Las Vegas.

We fell in love with climbing.

And for the last three years, we’ve been making the shirts we wished we had when we started.

Yep. It’s really just us.

It starts on paper.

Well... Digital paper!

Ethan draws all of our art by hand.

No big design team.

No pile of stock graphics.

A stylus. A blank canvas. And a lot of bad ideas before we find a good one.

Good art on a bad shirt still sucks.

So we got really picky about the shirt too.

We tried a lot of them.

Then we found the softest one we had ever worn.

It costs us more.

WAY more.

We use it anyway.

Because we don’t want Ch*lk U to be a shirt you just like in a photo.

We want it to be the shirt you keep grabbing.

This is why we won’t shut up about how soft it is.

Soft.

Light.

Durable.

Easy to move in.

“Hands down the softest shirts I’ve worn.”
- Iris Heikkinen

-@irisclimbing-World Cup Climber, Team Finland · Harvard Engineering

We sent Iris the shirt; we didn’t tell her what to say.

See it on real climbers.

Not just models.

Not just one body type.

The shirt that goes with your day.

Play video

Climb in it.

Eat in it.

Live in it.

Wash it.

Then look for it again.

The best shirt is the one you miss when it’s dirty.

We’ve worn ours for years.

Soft does not mean it has to fall apart.

We’ve climbed, worked out, moved houses, and lived in ours for years.

After a ton of washes, some shirts can fade. Some colors may pill more than others.

We’d rather show you than pretend clothes last forever.

Feel it yourself.

A screen can’t show you how a shirt feels.

So don’t guess.

We just really love climbing.

It gave us a place to go.

It gave us people to know.

It gave us something to care about.

And we wanted to make something that shares that feeling.

No “real climber” rules.

No chest beating.

If you climb, you’re one of us.

That’s Ch*lk U.
