45th Parallel is an outdoor lifestyle brand rooted in Gaylord, Michigan, right on the 45th Parallel — the line of latitude that runs halfway between the Equator and the North Pole. The brand was built for people who live close to the water, the woods, and the seasons, and who don't need the outdoors to be extreme to appreciate it.
The flagship store is located in downtown Gaylord, where you'll find apparel, hats, accessories, and gear designed for life along the 45th. Every product is made with intention — garment-dyed tees, fleece hoodies, graphic long sleeves, trucker hats, and more, all rooted in the landscape and character of Northern Michigan.
Come find us if you're up this way. We're at 149 W Main Street in downtown Gaylord, open Sunday through Saturday. You can also shop the full collection at 45thlife.com.
