The Greenwich tank, for the town that gave American Impressionism its Connecticut light. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the Greenwich vintage retro logo on the chest in black, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer Greenwich 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.

Unisex jersey tank made from lightweight Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton with a retail fit. Side-seam construction and self-fabric binding help it hold shape, with a tear-away label, and it runs true to size for adults. Solid colors are 100% cotton; select heather/prism shades may include cotton–poly or cotton–poly–rayon blends.

Greenwich was bought from the Siwanoy in 1640 and named for the royal borough of London. On February 26, 1779, General Israel Putnam galloped down Put’s Hill to outrun British cavalry, a ride still shown on the town seal, and the railroad of 1848 began the town’s long run as the flagship of Connecticut’s Gold Coast.

From about 1890 to 1920 Twachtman, Weir, Hassam and Robinson painted the Mianus River and Cos Cob Harbor from the c.1730 Bush-Holley House, the town’s only National Historic Landmark and a cradle of American Impressionism. Greenwich Point’s 147-acre peninsula and four town beaches face the Sound. The mark on this piece is that light.

All Greenwich Connecticut Items

Our Greenwich logo carries the same emblem every Merlin Classics Connecticut town wears — an oyster above "Connecticut, Est. 1636," the colony's founding year, rendered in hand-printed black and white with a worn, vintage feel. The oyster is the shoreline state's mark, the through-line that ties Greenwich to every other Connecticut town we make. What makes this one Greenwich is everything around it: the Impressionists' harbor light, the ride down Put's Hill, the Gold Coast shore. On a tee or a cap it reads less like a souvenir and more like a small piece of the Connecticut coast — Est. 1636, worn plain.

By the 1890s, painters were boarding the train to Cos Cob and lodging at the Bush-Holley House, a circa-1730 colonial saltbox above the harbor. There John Henry Twachtman taught what are believed to be among the first American Impressionist painting classes in the country, and artists including J. Alden Weir, Theodore Robinson, and Childe Hassam gathered to paint the marshes, the harbor, and the light. Their Cos Cob Art Colony, Connecticut's first, ran into the 1920s and helped shape American art; the house is now a National Historic Landmark cared for by the Greenwich Historical Society. In the twentieth century Greenwich became the flagship town of Connecticut's Gold Coast — wooded estates above the Sound, a celebrated avenue of shops, and an elegance that has always preferred restraint to display.
