Today Daytona Beach is known the world over for its beach and its motorsports fame, while keeping the resort-town character that built it. Our Daytona designs gather that identity — the alligator-and-1845 emblem, the vintage beach-racing heritage, and the most-famous-beach romance — into wearable form. Daytona Beach, Florida — the World's Most Famous Beach, where in 1903 daredevils first turned hard-packed sand into the Birthplace of Speed.
Our Daytona Beach logo carries Florida's alligator over "Florida Territory · Est. 1845," the year Florida joined the Union as the twenty-seventh state — the shared emblem of every Merlin Classics Florida place. Printed black-and-white with the worn look of an old crate stamp or woodcut, the gator reads as wild, sun-bleached Florida. What makes this one Daytona is the story behind it — the most famous beach, and the birthplace of speed.
