The Design Story

The city in the clouds

High in the Peruvian Andes, some 2,430 metres above the sea, the Inca raised Machu Picchu around 1450 — a citadel of stone terraces and temples fitted without mortar, perched on a ridge between two peaks. When the conquistadors came they never found it; the mountains kept it hidden for four centuries, until the world met it again in 1911.

This design stacks that mountain city into a single emblem — the terraced peak in green over a banner reading Peru · Inca · 2430m, the name arched above — embroidered on heavyweight navy fleece.
