The Seward tank, for the town that is Mile 0 on Resurrection Bay. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the Seward vintage retro logo on the chest in white, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer Seward piece: light enough for the trail, the boat and the porch, cut in a retail unisex fit that runs true to size. Order it before the warm weather does the deciding for you.

Built to hold its shape: a lightweight unisex tank in Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton jersey with side seams and self-fabric binding. Retail fit, true to size for adults, tear-away label. Solids are 100% cotton; select heather/prism shades may include cotton–poly or cotton–poly–rayon blends.

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.

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?

Merlin Classics is a small Connecticut brand making original retro designs for the towns people love. Every piece is printed, embroidered or engraved to order in the USA, and the business supports hunger relief in the communities our collections celebrate.

It was also the start of a famous trail. When gold was struck in the Iditarod country in 1908, Seward became the winter port for the new gold fields, and the Alaska Road Commission surveyed and marked a route from here clear to Nome. Over the Iditarod Trail moved thousands of stampeders and tons of gold, mail, and supplies, hauled by dog team through the snow until the 1920s. Today the Mile 0 marker stands on Seward's waterfront: this is where Alaska's only National Historic Trail begins.

So Seward gathers a Russian-named bay, the end of the rails, Mile 0 of a gold-rush trail, and the flag of Alaska itself onto one deep, ice-free harbor. Our Seward designs gather that into wearable form. Wear the history. Mile 0, on Resurrection Bay.

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.
