At View Askew Merch Travels we celebrate two of our favourite things: discovering new places and collecting the little pieces of merch and memorabilia that remind us of where we’ve been.

Some people come home with perfectly curated photo albums. We come home with a suitcase full of T-shirts, caps, enamel pins, art prints and the occasional slightly wonky snow globe. For us, those “askew” souvenirs are what keep the memories of a trip alive long after the plane has landed.

This site is where we share that obsession. You’ll find relaxed travel stories, tips on where to hunt for the best local merch, and ideas for turning your favourite designs into wearable memories. One week it might be a tiny independent screen-printer in a European backstreet, the next a beach market stall with hand-painted tees that you’ll never see anywhere else.

We’re not here to judge anyone’s travel style. Whether you’re a once-a-year holidaymaker, a digital nomad or someone dreaming from the sofa with a mug of coffee, you’re welcome. Our aim is to help you find places that feel good, experiences that aren’t too staged, and souvenirs that actually mean something to you.

Expect honest impressions, lots of photos, and plenty of little details for fellow T-shirt and merch nerds: fabric feel, print quality, sizing, and how things hold up after a few real-world adventures.

If you like your trips a little bit quirky and your wardrobe full of stories, you’re in the right place. Grab your favourite tee, pour a drink and come wander with us.
