The Milford tank, for the town that was settled on the Wepawaug in 1639. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the Milford vintage retro logo on the chest in white, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer Milford 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.

A retail-fit unisex tank in lightweight Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton. Side seams and self-fabric binding help it hold its shape, the label tears away, and it runs true to size for adults. Solids are 100% cotton; select heather and prism shades may include cotton–poly or cotton–poly–rayon blends.

Milford’s planters bought Wepawaug from the Paugussett sachem Ansantawae in February 1639 and settled on August 22 of that year under Reverend Peter Prudden, making it the sixth-oldest town in Connecticut. William Fowler’s mill at the ford gave it its name in 1640, and Robert Treat left here in 1666 to found Newark, New Jersey.

The Milford Green is the second-longest in New England, the 1889 Memorial Bridge carries the founders’ names in stone, and Captain Kidd’s gold is said to be buried on Charles Island off Silver Sands. Seventeen miles of coast and the Milford Oyster Festival, the state’s largest one-day festival, round out the town. The mark on this piece is the Wepawaug.

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?

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.

So Milford gathers a 1639 green, a treasure island, an oyster festival, and seventeen miles of shore onto Long Island Sound. Our Milford designs gather that into wearable form. Wear the history. On the Wepawaug since 1639 — Milford, CT.

By the late nineteenth century the same shore had become a getaway. With seventeen miles of coast — Walnut Beach and its boardwalk, Gulf Beach, Milford Point at the mouth of the Housatonic — Milford grew into a summer resort for New Haven and Bridgeport. Today that coast holds Silver Sands State Park, often rated the finest in Connecticut, and the Audubon coastal center at Milford Point, where more than three hundred species of birds have been counted along the marsh.

Why People Visit Milford

Milford balances a historic green, a legendary island, and miles of easy shoreline. Visitors enjoy simple seaside walks, boardwalks, and small cultural stops between the beaches and the harbor. It is peaceful, family-friendly, and close to nature, with year-round appeal in its parks, paths, and public spaces. History and everyday coastal life sit side by side here, from the long Green and the colonial downtown to the oyster boats and the boardwalk beyond.
