Hawleywood on a unisex heavy cotton pullover hoodie, 80/20 fleece, for the dreamer who lives it anyway. On it, the Live the Dream mark, the hillside sign in neon script with the motto beneath it.

The hoodie is the piece that gets borrowed and not returned: medium-heavy fleece, a three-panel hood, ribbed cuffs and waistband. Buy one for the cold morning and one for the person who will take it.

Hawleywood is a town that exists on one New England farm and nowhere else: a hillside sign in neon script, double rainbows over the pasture, palm trees that have no business surviving a Connecticut January and do. It is a running joke that became a place, and the place got a motto: Live the Dream. The name is a wink at Hollywood and a nod to Hawleyville, the old railroad village in Newtown, Connecticut, named for the Hawley family who farmed it.

The designs come out of that invented skyline: the neon sign, the lace and pinwheel logos, the bullseye, the round seal, all drawn in the colors of a 1950s roadside at dusk. They are for the people who know the farm and for the larger club of people who have a dream, a piece of land or a sign of their own and intend to keep living it. The Live the Dream line is the one that explains itself.

Unisex pullover hoodie made from a medium-heavy fleece for warmth and durability. Regular fit with a three-panel hood, ribbed cuffs and waistband, and double-needle stitching at key seams; tear-away label. Runs true to size for adults. Fabric is 80% combed ring-spun cotton / 20% polyester; heather colors may use cotton–poly blends.

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.
