It's a Kayaking Thing You Wouldn't Understand

Which one to pick

Hobby designs tend to carry the vocabulary of the craft, which is exactly what makes them land with people inside it and mean nothing to everyone else. The one design here keeps the wording plain.

If it will be worn while actually doing the kayaking, pick a darker colour — these shirts meet dust, water or dye sooner than most.

Who it is for

For someone whose kayaking takes up real weekends rather than an occasional afternoon. The joke claims membership, so it only reads properly on someone who has earned the claim.

Flat water and white water are separate

Touring a lake and running rapids use different boats, different skills and different nerves. Paddlers specialise.

The roll is the dividing line in white water. Everyone remembers learning it.

Canoe is the other boat entirely, and paddlers are firm about the difference.

• Allow two to three weeks. Each shirt is printed after you order, so production time comes before shipping time.
