Looking for cool travel shirts? We’ve got you covered!

This summer, my friend Cailin and I decided to create a travel t-shirt line. We love novelty t-shirts and wanted to create some fun designs that showcased our love of travel.

Here’s the truth: most travel shirts are created by people who don’t actually travel. Or if they do, they park themselves on a cruise ship or beach resort. It’s not the same.

We wanted shirts that actually share the truth about travel — shirts that we would actually want to wear! So we came up with some fun designs.

Here are some of our favorite designs:

We call this one The Travel Essentials. Because really — what do you need other than your passport, camera, suitcase, tickets and phone? Everything else is extra!

Ever met someone who travels with carry-on only? You’ll know it because THEY NEVER STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. Either way, wear your carry-on status with pride with this shirt.

Are you as sick of the “traveler vs. tourist” debate as we are? Who even cares? There are so many better words out there! You’re a wanderer, an adventurer, an explorer, a nomad, a vagabond. Far better words to convey your love of travel!

Ever gotten off an 18-hour flight across 12 time zones and completely forgotten what day it is, what month it is, even what year it is? This line burst out of me after a long flight from New York to Bangkok via Beijing. Robin Williams and Jumanji may have been an inspiration.

This one is for the champagne lovers! A few years ago, I set off a firestorm when I wrote about how champagne is the best drink in the world for solo female travelers. Since then, my readers often send me pictures of them drinking champagne in various locales around the world. I LOVE THIS. Whether it’s champagne or prosecco, cava or simply a glass of bubbly, raise it up and toast your fabulousness!

Love New York City? Love the nightlife? This shirt shows off the coolest neighborhoods in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Whether your taste is more of a cocktail bar in the East Village or a rooftop Burning Man-esque party in Bushwick, this shirt will have you covered.

And finally, if you’ve done the Southeast Asia circuit, you’ve likely spent time in these cities! Bangkok, of course, is the center of the world in Southeast Asia, but you’ve likely also chilled out in Chiang Mai, explored temples in Siem Reap, eaten well in Hoi An, and taken lots of selfies in Bali.
