The Seward baby bodysuit, for the town that is Mile 0 on Resurrection Bay. Soft fine jersey with the Seward 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 Seward piece most often bought for someone else.

Soft, breathable, and easy to change: an infant bodysuit in light 4.5 oz (153 g/m²) fine jersey with a secure snap crotch, ribbed binding, and side seams for durability. Solids are 100% combed ringspun cotton; heather shades include a cotton–polyester blend.

Baranov named Resurrection Bay in 1792 and the Ballaine brothers founded Seward as the Alaska Central Railway’s ocean terminus on August 28, 1903. When gold was struck on Otter Creek on Christmas Day 1908, the Iditarod Trail was blazed north from here: Mile 0. The city incorporated in 1912, and Benny Benson designed the Alaska flag at the Jesse Lee Home in 1927.

The 1964 earthquake and tsunami took the waterfront and the town rebuilt it. The deep-water port stays ice-free all year, Mount Marathon hosts the oldest mountain race in North America, and Exit Glacier and the Kenai Fjords lie just beyond. The end of the rails and the edge of the fjords 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.

And here is the quiet wonder of the place: the Alaska flag was born in Seward. In 1927 a thirteen-year-old boy named Benny Benson, a resident of the town's Jesse Lee Home, entered a territory-wide design contest with eight gold stars on a field of blue — the Big Dipper for strength, the North Star for Alaska's future. His entry beat 142 others and became, in time, the flag of the state. A memorial in town marks the spot, and few small towns can say they gave a state its flag.

Seward has been tested as hard as any town in Alaska. On Good Friday in 1964, the great earthquake and the tsunami that followed tore through the waterfront, wrecking the harbor and the rail terminal and burning the fuel tanks along the shore; a large share of the town was lost. Seward rebuilt, as it always has, and was named an All-America City three times over. The harbor you see today was raised from that wreckage.

Why People Visit Seward

Seward blends marine science with glacier access and harbor life. Visitors mix easy waterfront walks with boat tours, public art, and museums, all beneath the mountains. It is dramatic, friendly, and photogenic, with year-round appeal in its parks, paths, and public spaces. Frontier railroad history and the wild coast sit side by side here — history and everyday Alaska life together in a welcoming way.
