The Arlington baby bodysuit, for the town that is the American Dream City. Soft fine jersey with the Arlington vintage retro logo on the front in black, newborn to 24 months.

This is the new-baby gift from the hometown: light, soft, with a snap crotch that makes changes easy and a logo the parents will photograph. Order it as soon as the news arrives; it is the Arlington piece most often bought for someone else.

Unisex infant bodysuit made from soft, breathable fine jersey with a light 4.5 oz (153 g/m²) weight. Ribbed binding and side seams add durability, and the secure snap crotch makes changes easy. Solid colors are 100% combed ringspun cotton; heather shades include a cotton–polyester blend.

Arlington was laid out on the Texas & Pacific Railway in 1876, near the 1841 Bird’s Fort and the 1843 treaty signed there, named for a Virginia estate and incorporated on April 21, 1884. A downtown mineral well flowed from 1892 to 1951, and the Top O’ Hill Terrace casino ran in secret until the Rangers raided it in 1947.

Six Flags Over Texas opened here in 1961, the original of the chain, and Tom Vandergriff grew a market town of 8,000 into the entertainment capital of the metroplex, midway between Dallas and Fort Worth on Lake Arlington. The American Dream City is the mark on this piece.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Apparel: wash cold, inside out, with like colors; no bleach; tumble dry low or hang dry. Embroidered pieces: iron inside out to protect the stitching. Caps: spot clean. Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

Who makes this?

What's with Vegas Before Vegas? On a hilltop above the old highway between Dallas and Fort Worth, a genteel tea garden once hid one of the South's most notorious illegal casinos. Top O' Hill Terrace ran high-stakes gambling behind a respectable front through the 1920s, '30s, and '40s — with a concealed basement and escape tunnels for when the law came up the hill — and it drew gamblers, oilmen, and celebrities from across Texas long before the Strip existed. They called it "Vegas before Vegas." The Texas Rangers spent years trying to shut it down and finally did; the estate is now Arlington Baptist University, and the tunnels are still there. It is the most Arlington story there is: a little hardscrabble prairie town with an outsized appetite for spectacle.

Our Arlington logo carries the Texas longhorn and a lone star above "Texas Republic — Est. 1845," the shared retro emblem of our Texas towns, drawn in worn black-and-white like an old woodcut crate label. The 1845 date marks Texas statehood, and the longhorn is the through-line that links Arlington to every other Texas town we make. The detail that makes this one Arlington is the American Dream City itself — the railway market town, the old mineral well, the Vegas-before-Vegas hill, and the entertainment capital it grew into between Dallas and Fort Worth.

Why People Visit Arlington

Arlington rewards travelers who want big-event energy with Texas convenience — the stadiums and theme parks of the Entertainment District, set between Dallas and Fort Worth and easy to reach from either. People come for the games, the coasters, and the concerts, and stay for the river-and-lake parks and the offbeat heritage of a prairie town that talked itself into becoming the American Dream City.
