The Mystic fleece, for the town that was the whaling capital of America. An authentic Columbia MTR fleece, full-zip, with the Mystic vintage retro logo embroidered on the chest in white thread.

This is the top of the Mystic range: a real Columbia blank, embroidered to order, warm, light and fast-drying. It is the jacket for early mornings, the sideline and the drive home, and the Mystic gift that gets opened and put on immediately. Made to order, so allow the embroidery time before the holidays.

Custom embroidered to order on an authentic Columbia fleece jacket blank, this premium full-zip pairs Columbia’s soft, warm MTR fleece with our vintage-retro logo cleanly embroidered on the chest. The lightweight MTR-style filament fleece (~7.4 oz/yd²) has an athletic, easy-layering fit, delivers dependable insulation on cool days, dries fast, and moves comfortably for walks, errands, travel, or campfire nights. A stand collar and clean lines pair with everything. Care: machine wash cold (gentle), dry flat, no bleach, no iron on decoration, no dry clean. Embroidery uses thread rather than ink, so slight differences from the digital product image are normal; full details and care instructions are in the page footer Embroidery note.

Mystic was settled in 1654 on both banks of the Mystic River, split to this day between Groton and Stonington. Between the 1830s and 1860s its yards built more than six hundred vessels, and in 1841 they launched the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, now the last wooden whaleship in the world. The 1756 Captain Daniel Packer Inne still stands by the water.

The 1922 bascule bridge on Main Street still lifts for boat traffic, Mystic Seaport Museum, founded in 1929, is the largest maritime museum in America, and the village became famous far beyond New England when Mystic Pizza was filmed here in 1988. That working-river history 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.

The Charles W. Morgan, built in New Bedford in 1841 and the last wooden whaling ship in the world, has been preserved at Mystic since 1941.

Our Mystic logo carries Connecticut's oyster shell over "Connecticut · Est. 1636," tying the village to the colonial founding of Connecticut — the shared emblem of every Merlin Classics Connecticut place. Printed black-and-white with the worn look of an old oyster-crate label, the shell reads as the shoreline in shorthand: tidal, maritime, salt-aired. What makes this one Mystic is the story behind it — the five yards, the six hundred ships, and the last wooden whaler in the world.
