The Cos Cob tee, for the town that is where the Impressionists painted the Mianus. A classic unisex heavy cotton t-shirt with the Cos Cob vintage retro logo on the chest in white: the default Cos Cob shirt, and the one most people start with.

This is the everyday Cos Cob shirt: medium-weight cotton that holds up to real washing, a crewneck that fits everyone, and a logo that reads as a crest rather than a billboard. Buy it for yourself, buy a second for the person who keeps saying they want one, and it ships free in the U.S.

Medium-weight heavy cotton jersey makes this an everyday unisex tee. It has a classic fit, a crewneck, tubular construction, and taped shoulders for durability; the design is DTG-printed. Solid colors are 100% cotton, while select heather/antique shades may use cotton–poly blends.

Cos Cob is a waterfront village of Greenwich at the lower landing of the Mianus River, where the c.1728 Bush-Holley House stands on a hill over the harbor. The Holleys opened it as a boarding house in 1882, John Henry Twachtman began teaching summer classes there in 1890, and he and J. Alden Weir brought the Art Students League summer school in 1892.

Childe Hassam and Theodore Robinson followed, and the Cos Cob Art Colony that flourished until the 1920s was Connecticut’s first, a birthplace of American Impressionism. The saltbox became a museum in 1958 and a National Historic Landmark in 1991; Hassam’s Red Mill shipyard stood across the water. The mark on this piece is that light on the harbor.

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.

All Cos Cob Connecticut Items

The colony faded by the 1920s, but its home was saved. The Greenwich Historical Society bought the Bush-Holley House in 1957 and opened it as a museum the next year; in 1991 it was named a National Historic Landmark. It still tells two stories — the New Nation and the Art Colony — and hangs works by Twachtman, Hassam, Lawson, and MacRae in its galleries, so the painters who once boarded here are still on the walls.

Why Cos Cob? In a word, the train. The Cos Cob station put the village less than an hour from New York, and the place gave Impressionism everything it wanted: tidal light on the Mianus, a working harbor, weathered clapboard houses, and the old Palmer and Duff shipyard across the water — the very subject of Hassam's painting 'The Red Mill, Cos Cob.' The artists worked outdoors, en plein air, just as the French had done at Giverny, chasing color that changed by the minute, and the Lower Landing of the Mianus handed them a ready-made composition at every tide.

Why People Visit Cos Cob

Cos Cob offers art heritage and green escapes in a small, walkable village. Visitors pair the Bush-Holley House and its Impressionist collection with river paths, harbor overlooks, and quiet historic streets. It is tranquil, residential, and close to the water, with year-round appeal in its parks, paths, and public spaces. History and everyday life sit side by side here, from the saltbox over the harbor to the trails along the Mianus.
