The Westport baby bodysuit, for the town that met the redcoats at Compo Hill. Soft fine jersey with the Westport 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 Westport piece most often bought for someone else.

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

On April 25, 1777, about 1,850 British troops came ashore at Compo Beach on their way to burn Danbury, and Westport’s militia met them at Compo Hill on the way back. The town itself was incorporated on May 28, 1835, from parts of Norwalk, Fairfield and Weston, grown out of the colonial Saugatuck River shipping village and the 1648 Green’s Farms settlement.

The Minute Man statue at Compo Road was unveiled on June 17, 1910, the Westport Country Playhouse opened in an 1835 tannery in 1931, and the arts colony that began around 1910 gave the town its character. Compo Beach, the Saugatuck waterfront and Sherwood Island line the Sound. The mark on this piece is the minuteman’s town.

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.

More From Westport Connecticut

All Westport Connecticut Items

The Minute Man statue by Westport sculptor H. Daniel Webster was cast by Tiffany & Co. and unveiled June 17, 1910; it is one of only four known minuteman monuments in the United States.

Three old roads stitch the town together. The Boston Post Road — the colonial mail road, now US Route 1 — crosses the Saugatuck downtown, and mid-century travelers knew Westport by a roadside landmark on it: the Clam Box, a seafood stop whose sign and silhouette were pure New England. The Merritt Parkway sweeps through the backcountry under its famous 1930s bridges, no two alike, and the New Haven Line still carries commuters from the Westport and Saugatuck stations — the same ride to the city that turned onion fields into an arts colony and an arts colony into a suburb.

Why People Visit Westport Connecticut

  • Spend a day at Compo Beach, the town's Sound-front park, and find the Minute Man statue on the bluff above the 1777 landing site — the 1901 commemorative cannons stand nearby.
  • Walk the Saugatuck River waterfront and the historic Saugatuck village, the colonial shipping center the town grew from, and cross the 1884 Cribari swing bridge.
  • Catch a show at the Westport Country Playhouse, founded in 1931 in a converted 1835 tannery, or a summer concert at the Levitt Pavilion.
  • Browse downtown Main Street and the river walk, with shops and galleries near the water.
  • Kayak to Cockenoe Island off Compo, or walk Longshore's shoreline paths and public golf course.
  • Drive a stretch of the Merritt Parkway for its celebrated 1930s bridges — no two are alike.
  • Read up at the Westport Library before exploring the town's deep arts-colony history.
