The Greenwich baby bodysuit, for the town that gave American Impressionism its Connecticut light. Soft fine jersey with the Greenwich 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 Greenwich 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.

Greenwich was bought from the Siwanoy in 1640 and named for the royal borough of London. On February 26, 1779, General Israel Putnam galloped down Put’s Hill to outrun British cavalry, a ride still shown on the town seal, and the railroad of 1848 began the town’s long run as the flagship of Connecticut’s Gold Coast.

From about 1890 to 1920 Twachtman, Weir, Hassam and Robinson painted the Mianus River and Cos Cob Harbor from the c.1730 Bush-Holley House, the town’s only National Historic Landmark and a cradle of American Impressionism. Greenwich Point’s 147-acre peninsula and four town beaches face the Sound. The mark on this piece is that light.

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.

What's with Putnam's Ride? Look closely at the seal of the Town of Greenwich and you'll find a man on horseback plunging down a cliff. That is "Old Put" — General Israel Putnam, the sixty-one-year-old Revolutionary War general — on the morning of February 26, 1779. By the local account, Putnam was at Knapp's Tavern (today's Putnam Cottage) when British cavalry under General Tryon surprised the town. Cut off from his outnumbered men, Putnam spurred his horse to the brow of a steep rocky slope above the old Post Road — Put's Hill — and rode straight down it, threading the stone face while the dragoons reined up at the top, unwilling to follow. He escaped to raise the alarm. Historians have long debated the exact details, but Greenwich never doubted the spirit of it: the ride is on the town seal, the police patch, and the name of half the landmarks in town. It is the moment Greenwich chose to define itself by — daring to go where no one dared follow.

Our Greenwich logo carries the same emblem every Merlin Classics Connecticut town wears — an oyster above "Connecticut, Est. 1636," the colony's founding year, rendered in hand-printed black and white with a worn, vintage feel. The oyster is the shoreline state's mark, the through-line that ties Greenwich to every other Connecticut town we make. What makes this one Greenwich is everything around it: the Impressionists' harbor light, the ride down Put's Hill, the Gold Coast shore. On a tee or a cap it reads less like a souvenir and more like a small piece of the Connecticut coast — Est. 1636, worn plain.
