Casa de Luna Manzanita Forest
Design inspiration: Casa de Luna Manzanita Forest

Meet the Casa de Luna Manzanita Forest

A little trail-side knowledge about the inspiration behind the print.

Smooth as Bark Gets

Manzanita trees have striking, smooth, red or orange bark that naturally peels away, revealing fresh color underneath. It’s basically the exfoliator of the forest.

Snack Time for Wildlife

Their tiny apple-like berries (manzanita means “little apple” in Spanish) are a favorite treat for bears, birds, and hikers with a taste for trail-foraged teas and jams.

Fire-Resistant and Fierce

Manzanitas are incredibly drought-tolerant and can survive wildfires thanks to their thick bark and deep roots. They’re tough, scrappy survivors—just like your favorite thru-hikers.

Where You’ll Find Them

Manzanita trees and shrubs are found throughout the western United States, especially in California’s chaparral landscapes, and notably around Green Valley, where trail angels Terrie and Joe Anderson created the legendary hiker haven, Casa de Luna. Inspired and selected by Terrie and Joe themselves, this print celebrates the manzanita-covered hills surrounding their home, where they generously hosted nearly 20,000 Pacific Crest Trail hikers over two decades. It’s a tribute to the landscape, and the love, that defined Casa de Luna.

The logo was stitched on the wrong way and poorly at that

The logo was stitched on the wrong way and poorly at that.

Hey Ron, appreciate the feedback.

The sideways orientation is actually intentional, this shirt is from our first production run and the rotated logo was a deliberate design choice. You can see it in several of our original photos, including the carousel image on the product page for this item.

Stick your arm out with your thumb up and the logo mimics a hitchhiking position, that was the idea behind that run.

Thanks,
TownShirtCo

THE FUN GUY!

I wore this shirt for a thru hike of the Tour du Mont Blanc last summer and a ton of other section hikes throughout the year. This thing is incredibly lightweight, stretchy, comfortable, breathable, and dries insanely fast. I would pass people that I hadn’t seen in a couple of days on the TMB and they would say hey it’s the fun shirt guy!!! Seriously I can’t tell you how many people commented on this shirt. Not only is this thing a great technical piece of hiking gear but it also adds a bit of fun, on trail or in town. Get one!

Cool and comfy

After wearing the Desert Mariposa Townshirt print on the Appalachian Trail and receiving numerous compliments, I knew I had to grab another print in preparation for the Pacific Crest Trail. I was a little worried because I loved my old one so much and wanted something different but equally as stylish. Then Pickle came out with the Lily print, and I had to have it as it matched the pack I picked out. My only disappointment is knowing that it's going to be another 10 months before I get to wear it everday.

Begging for a better fit

The cut of the shirt still suffers from short king problems (short torso, hips>chest) BUT that's easily concealed by tucking it in at work. I don't know who didn't this design, but it is GORGEOUS. The red and yellow of the lillies is so bright and the blue base of the shirt is such a lovely vibrant blue it makes the flowers and even the darker leaves pop brilliantly! I wore it for my lab lunch today and got all the compliments. I'm also an easy sweater, but you can't tell in this shirt! It wicks without obvious dark sweat marks, and the loose fabric is soft, cool and flowy. I'm bummed I missed the trillium and AT designs in my size, and i hope TownShirt doesn't do away with them permanently.

I love this pattern so much

I love this pattern so much. I wore it as a hoodie on the CDT and now that my hoodie is all dirty and stained, I have this snazzy short-sleeved button-down. The fabric is so light and airy.

We love all our townshirts!

We love all our townshirts! Comfy, light weight, and fantastic prints make these shirts our daily wears. Looking forward to new prints perhaps an autumn si flower blend, fireflies, brook trout/rainbow trout? Keep them coming. We are huge fans.

Comfortable & Great Design

Comfortable, great PCT design shirt. Had been thinking about getting one for several years. Saw they were about to go away, so I had to grab one. Love the shirt. I am a “PCT Section Looper.” As a “Volunteer Wilderness Ranger” on the same stretch of the PCT for over 20 years, I have logged enough miles on my “loop” that had I started in Campo, I’d be on the PCT in the vicinity of Mt. Jefferson, Oregon. Saw Town Shirt is from Maryland. I am, too, many years ago.

These shirts are my go to

Whether working at my river outfitter, or out on my bike, I'm in the sun and elements most days. These shirts are just the lightweight and quick dry material I was looking for. The designs and what they represent are definitely a bonus!

I am stocking up on 'sun shirts; due to a melanoma removal last year....should not be in the sun but....as a gardener this is really hard. Bought this sweet beauty at Trail Days in May of 2025 and LOVE it. It's so stylish and functional....I'm going to buy a long-sleeved one soon!!

Fits great, feels great

5’9, 165lb female, size medium. I Really like this shirt. I’m funny about fabric and this feels great all day. Complimented several times and got to have a few conversations about the PCT. Plus it’s a cottage company run by actual hikers. Wish it was actually made locally but you can’t win em all.

Love the style. The laurel design is fantastic. Too bad I discovered that I gained quite a bit of weight. Oh well. Thanks for making an amazing shirt.

We're not all long skinny torsos

I've wanted a townshirt every since I saw their designs. They're so stinking cool and colorful and capture everything I love about being outdoors. I like that it's a button-down shirt so I can wear it to work as well and it still looks appropriately formal. The material is super light. I haven't had a chance to test the wicking ability since it's below freezing here, but spring will come soon. My one complaint is a common one, and it's the length compared to the width of the shirt. I have hips guys! I'm basically hobbit shaped, with a shorter torso, so the shirt extends uncomfortably about 6in too far. So because of the straight cut I either have to choose between a size too large that billows around my chest and looks frumpy and sloppy, or the correct size that fits my chest but then can't close around my hips. Or worse, I have to tuck the shirt in. I'm begging outdoor companies to either offer different cuts (curve vs straight) or shorter torso lengths. Please be more size inclusive. Your shirts are really gorgeous and that way more people can wear them.
