The Old Saybrook heavy crewneck, for the town that is Connecticut’s oldest colony. A classic 50/50 fleece sweatshirt with the Old Saybrook vintage retro logo on the chest in white: the plain, durable one.

Choose this crewneck for durability and price: classic fit, ribbed collar and cuffs, a fleece that shrugs off years of washing. It is the Old Saybrook sweatshirt to buy in twos, one for home and one for the person who grew up there, and it ships free in the U.S.

Warm, durable, and classic in fit: a unisex crewneck sweatshirt in medium-heavy 8.0 oz fleece (50% cotton/50% polyester; Heather Sport 60/40). Ribbed collar, cuffs & waistband, double-needle seams, tear-away label, and a DTG-printed design. White may appear off-white and Orange hue may vary.

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.

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?
