Fun Derby fact:
Rain has fallen on nearly half of all Kentucky Derby days in the past 150+ years. So a little weather is just part of the tradition! ☔🐎

👕 What are you wearing to the Tollhouse Derby?

If you’re coming to the Derby and still deciding what to wear, our Tollhouse Derby shirts are a fun and easy way to join the celebration. And if you can’t attend this year but still want to support the Sierra Foundation, grabbing a shirt is a great way to be part of the event from wherever you are.

This is our first year testing Derby merchandise, so we only printed a limited number of shirts — and sizes will disappear as they sell out.

If you’d like one, now’s the time!

👕 Last Chance for Tollhouse Derby Shirts!

Our first run of Tollhouse Derby 2026 shirts is almost gone! We printed a limited number this year as we test the concept, and several sizes are already running low.

If you’re coming to the Derby and still deciding what to wear, this shirt is a fun and easy way to join the celebration. And if you can’t attend but still want to support the Sierra Foundation, grabbing a shirt is a great way to be part of the event.

Once these shirts are gone, they’re gone!

👕 Last Chance for Tollhouse Derby Shirts!

We only have about 65 shirts left from our first Tollhouse Derby run. This year we printed a small batch as we test the idea, and once they’re gone, they’re gone!

If you're coming to the Derby and still deciding what to wear, this shirt is an easy way to join the fun. And if you can’t attend but still want to support the Sierra Foundation, grabbing a shirt is a great way to be part of the event.

Don’t wait too long — sizes will start disappearing quickly!
