The Palm Springs heavy crewneck, for the town that is the desert’s mid-century modern capital. A classic 50/50 fleece sweatshirt with the Palm Springs vintage retro logo on the chest in black: the plain, durable one.

Medium-heavy fleece gives this unisex crewneck sweatshirt its warmth and durability. The classic fit has a ribbed collar, cuffs & waistband, double-needle seams, and a tear-away label, with the design DTG-printed. Standard 8.0 oz 50% cotton/50% polyester; Heather Sport 60/40. Note: White may appear off-white; Orange hue may vary.

The Agua Caliente Cahuilla built their villages around the hot mineral springs of Se-Khi for thousands of years; McCallum began the resort colony in 1885, the health-resort years followed, and 653 voters incorporated the city in 1938. Hollywood had already found it in the 1920s and 30s.

The 1940s to 60s left the densest concentration of mid-century modern architecture in the country, butterfly roofs, breeze blocks and kidney pools under about 350 days of sun, and the 1963 Aerial Tramway climbs Mount San Jacinto, which leaps nearly two miles straight off the desert floor. The palm oases of the Indian Canyons lie just south. The mid-century desert is the mark on this piece.

All Palm Springs California Items

Our Palm Springs logo carries the California grizzly and star over "California Republic, Est. 1850," the same emblem every Merlin Classics California place wears. The bear and star are California's shorthand — wildness, independence, the open West — printed black-and-white with the worn look of an old state-park sign or a vintage athletic print. What makes this one Palm Springs is the place behind it: the mid-century modern, the rotating tram, the desert oasis. On a tee or a cap it reads less like a souvenir and more like a piece of the California desert — Est. 1850, worn plain.

The desert's mid-century modern capital — a Coachella Valley oasis where Hollywood built a town of butterfly roofs and the world's largest rotating tram climbs two miles into the mountains. Palm Springs sits in a bowl of sun at the foot of Mount San Jacinto, on the floor of the Coachella Valley. The Agua Caliente Cahuilla built their lives around its hot mineral springs and palm-canyon oases for thousands of years; by the 1950s it had become a sun-drenched modernist playground of clean lines and kidney-shaped pools. Three hundred and fifty days of sun, a mountain that leaps straight off the desert floor, and a whole town of desert-modern design — this page tells the story.

Why People Visit Palm Springs California

People come to Palm Springs for the sun, the mid-century modern design, and the rare pairing of desert and mountain — palm oases on the valley floor, snow-dusted pines a tram ride above. It is bright, stylish, and walkable: the desert's design capital at the foot of Mount San Jacinto.
