Aviator Nation
About
Aviator Nation sells one very recognizable look: 1970s-inspired California sportswear, led by rainbow-striped hoodies and sweatpants that are sewn by hand and distressed at the brand's own factory in California. Founder Paige Mycoskie started the label in her Venice Beach garage in 2006, and the Vail store on Bridge Street opened in 2021, four years after the brand's Aspen shop.
It suits shoppers who already love the brand and want to see the colors in person, families shopping for matching sweats in adult and kids' sizes, and anyone after a soft, wearable reminder of a mountain trip that is not a logo T-shirt.
What is on the racks
Hoodies, zip hoodies, sweatshirts and tees are the core, with sweatpants, sweatshorts, denim and shorts alongside. The outerwear line runs to puffer and teddy jackets, windbreakers, vests and flight suits, and the women's range adds powder suits and base layers, all cut in the same stripe-and-fade style.
Gifts and small things
Trucker hats, beanies, socks, backpacks, water bottles and blankets make easy gifts and pack small. The kids' collection covers hoodies, tees, sweatpants, outerwear and hats, so younger travelers are not an afterthought.
Finding the store
The shop is at 230 Bridge Street, on the car-free main street of Vail Village, so most visitors simply walk past it between lunch and the lifts. If you are driving in, the Vail Village parking structure is the nearest public garage. The brand does not publish store hours on its website, so call ahead if you are planning around a specific time.
