The Old Saybrook premium crewneck, for the town that is Connecticut’s oldest colony. A 9.9 oz cotton-rich sweatshirt with a smooth face and the Old Saybrook vintage retro logo on the chest in black.

This is the softer, heavier of our two Old Saybrook crewnecks, the one that becomes the three-days-a-week sweatshirt from October on. Smooth face, rich print, no scratchy tag. If you want the sweatshirt that feels like a favorite on day one, this is it; order now for cold weather and holiday giving.

Built for comfort and built to last: a unisex sweatshirt in a medium-heavy 9.9 oz fabric blended from 80% cotton and 20% polyester. The true-to-size fit works for everyone, the smooth cotton-rich surface carries our retro artwork with rich detail, and ribbed-knit cuffs and collar, reinforced side seams, and twill neck tape keep the shape crisp wash after wash. No scratchy tag thanks to the tear-away label. Machine washable and ethically printed on demand.

Saybrook Colony was chartered in 1635, when Lion Gardiner built a fort at the mouth of the Connecticut River, making Old Saybrook the oldest officially chartered settlement in the state. Yale College was founded here in 1701 and met in Saybrook until 1716, and in 1775 David Bushnell built the Turtle, the first American submarine, on this shore.

The 1803 Lynde Point Light is the oldest lighthouse in Connecticut, the 1886 Outer Breakwater Light stands beyond it, and the 1790 James Pharmacy is one of the oldest pharmacy buildings in the country. At Fenwick, Katharine Hepburn kept her lifelong home from 1913 on, and The Kate theater opened in her name in 2009. The mark on this piece is the river mouth.

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.

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.
