T-SHIRTS

Our Manito Zoo T-Shirt celebrates the quirky history of Spokane's Manito Zoo, featuring the legendary Jack, the tobacco-addicted donkey. Established in 1905, Manito Zoo was built in Spokane's beautiful Manito Park, offering residents a unique opportunity to experience exotic and farm animals up close.

One of the zoo's most infamous residents was Jack, a donkey known for his unusual habit of accepting tobacco from visitors. In the early 1900s, people often gave tobacco to farm animals, believing it to be an effective dewormer due to its nicotine content. Jack's quirky addiction became a local legend, symbolizing the zoo's unique charm and the eccentricities of the era.

This unisex t-shirt is a perfect blend of comfort and style, making it a delightful addition to any wardrobe.

Our Manito Zoo T-Shirt is your official uniform for Spokane’s strangest chapter in zoo history.
Forget the tobacco-loving donkey (sorry, Jack)—this tee pays homage to the real stars of Manito Park’s wild past: the polar bears and a little girl with a sandwich and one heck of a story.

Back in the 1920s, Manito Zoo was home to exotic animals, questionable safety measures, and one unforgettable moment when a young girl tried to feed a sandwich to a polar bear and left the zoo with one arm fewer than she arrived with (true story).

This shirt doesn’t just celebrate Spokane’s weirdest zoo lore—it wears it proudly. A little tragic, a lot iconic, and definitely quirky enough to spark conversation at your next picnic in the park.

This parody tee is for the real ones who know where Antoine Peak is—tucked above the east edge of Spokane Valley, where the views stretch from Mt. Spokane to the Mica foothills and the trail dust never quite leaves your boots.

Inspired by that other hiking brand but made for locals who trade downtown crowds for dirt roads off Wellesley. Whether you’re grinding up from Forker, hitting the east trailhead before work, or just repping your home turf, this shirt says “I hike Antoine” without saying a word.

Soft, breathable cotton blend—perfect for trail days or Valley errands

Unisex fit—because nature doesn’t care

Designed by a local, for locals (and confused outsiders)

Guaranteed to get a nod from someone in a Subaru
