Kathmandu Coast to Coast 2027 Athlete-Exclusive Merchandise Tee
For the first time in our partnership, we’re excited to introduce our Kathmandu Coast to Coast 2027 Athlete-Exclusive Merchandise Tee.
Available only to athletes for purchase upon race entry, this unisex organic cotton tee features a bespoke 2027 graphic, created by our Christchurch-based team exclusively for competitors.
The back illustration is a depiction of the Coast to Coast community in action, capturing athletes defeat each discipline of the race within a single frame. The frame itself subtly echoes iconic elements of the event too; the upper edges reference the iconic inflatable finish line, while the jagged lower edge reflects the rocky riverbed competitors (and their ankles) know so well.
This tee is a reminder of what you set out to conquer and the story you’ll create along the way - one that lives on long after race day.
Please note:
- This is an entry-only release and will not be available for purchase as part of our general event merchandise range.
- Tee orders close 31 July 2026. Orders cannot be accepted after this date.
