Hiking club apparel for women lives or dies on the cut. A unisex tee on a 130-pound woman runs boxy and frumpy. A proper ladies cut tee, a racerback tank, a ladies hoodie all read as actual apparel members want to wear. Our catalog has ladies-specific versions of every key piece so a club can run a complete womens line alongside its unisex line.
Many hiking clubs default to unisex tees out of simplicity. The cost of that simplicity is real: a unisex tee fits maybe 40 percent of female members well, and most female members buy half as often as a result. Adding a ladies cut next to the unisex doubles womens repeat purchase rate in nearly every club we have seen.
You do not have to drop unisex. Most successful hiking clubs run both. Unisex tee, ladies tee, ladies racerback tank, ladies hoodie. Same logo, same store, same pricing per piece.
