The Marco Island baby bodysuit, for the town that rises from a thousand years of shells. Soft fine jersey with the Marco Island vintage retro logo on the front in black, newborn to 24 months.

This is the new-baby gift from the hometown: light, soft, with a snap crotch that makes changes easy and a logo the parents will photograph. Order it as soon as the news arrives; it is the Marco Island piece most often bought for someone else.

A soft, breathable infant bodysuit in light 4.5 oz (153 g/m²) fine jersey. Ribbed binding and side seams add durability, and the secure snap crotch makes changes easy. Solids are 100% combed ringspun cotton; heather shades include a cotton–polyester blend.

The Calusa built shell mounds here for centuries, Indian Hill among them at fifty-one feet, and in 1896 the Smithsonian’s Pepper-Hearst Expedition under Frank Hamilton Cushing pulled the six-inch carved-wood Key Marco Cat from the muck, one of the finest Pre-Columbian finds in North America. William Collier founded the village of Marco in 1870.

Clam and oyster canneries ran at Caxambas Pass from 1903 to 1947, the first bridge came in 1938, and Deltona opened the modern island in 1965. The largest of the Ten Thousand Islands, it has a six-mile crescent of sugar-white sand, among the widest beaches in Florida and some of the best shelling. That shell-strewn shore is the mark on this piece.

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.

More From Marco Island Florida

All Marco Island Florida Items

What the brochures promised, the island delivered: a six-mile crescent of sugar-white sand, among the widest beaches in Florida, with shelling good enough to draw collectors from around the world. Marco is the largest of the Ten Thousand Islands — the maze of mangrove keys where the Gulf meets the Everglades — and the gateway to all of it: boat trips out through the islands, dolphins and roseate spoonbills, and the warm, shallow, almost-waveless water that makes the place feel like a long, lazy float.

Today Marco Island is white sand and warm water, shell mounds and shelling, a quietly upscale paradise at the edge of the Everglades. Our Marco Island designs gather that identity — the alligator emblem, the Calusa shell island, the wide Gulf beach — into wearable form. Marco Island — where Florida’s widest sugar-sand beach rises from a thousand years of shells.

Why People Visit Marco Island

Marco Island rewards visitors who want wide white sand, warm shallow water, and shells underfoot, with a rare depth of history close by. Add the boat trips into the Ten Thousand Islands and the year-round Gulf sun, and the case makes itself.
