Bass Harbor T-Shirts, Sweatshirts, & Hoodies
Bass Harbor sweatshirts, t-shirts, & hoodies printed exclusively on premium garment-dyed Comfort Colors apparel. Original designs from local Maine graphic artists. The quiet side of Mount Desert Island.
Bass Harbor Sweatshirts, the Quiet Side of MDI
Bass Harbor sweatshirts represent the side of Mount Desert Island that most visitors drive past on the way to Bar Harbor. Their loss. The working lobster fleet, the Head Light perched on the granite cliff, the marshes along Route 102. Bass Harbor, Maine is where the island slows down to its real speed. Our garment-dyed Comfort Colors blanks are heavyweight and pre-shrunk, built for mornings on the wharf and evenings watching the light change across Blue Hill Bay.
Bass Harbor Hoodies, Lobster Wharf Layers
Bass Harbor hoodies are for the early mornings when the fleet heads out and the fog sits on the harbor like a lid. Our Comfort Colors 1567 runs 9.5 oz. heavyweight with a jersey-lined hood that handles the damp air off the water. Bass Harbor, ME is a year-round fishing village, and the apparel should feel like it belongs there. For more of the island, explore our Southwest Harbor apparel.
Bass Harbor T-Shirts, Summer on the Quiet Side
Bass Harbor t-shirts work for the short summer season when the harbor fills with sailboats and the Head Light trail gets just enough foot traffic to feel discovered. Garment-dyed Comfort Colors heavyweight cotton, soft from the first wear. Bass Harbor is a place worth remembering, and these tees outlast the postcards.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is garment-dyed apparel?
Each piece is dyed after it's sewn, not before. This gives Comfort Colors their signature soft, vintage, lived-in feel and rich color from day one. The color gets better with every wash, and slight color variations between pieces are normal and part of what makes each one unique.
Are your Bass Harbor clothing products the same as typical Bass Harbor gift shop sweatshirts?
Not even close. We print exclusively on Comfort Colors, one of the fastest-growing apparel brands in the country. Premium heavyweight garment-dyed apparel that's thicker, softer, and designed to last for years, not a single vacation.
How do I care for Comfort Colors garments?
Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors and a mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Skip the bleach, fabric softeners, and high heat. Wash separately the first time as the dye can bleed slightly. They only get softer with age.
Do Comfort Colors tees and sweatshirts shrink?
Comfort Colors are pre-shrunk during the garment-dye process, which significantly reduces future shrinkage. Stick with cold water and low heat in the dryer and you will have no issues.
What is the fit style of Comfort Colors apparel?
Relaxed and slightly oversized with a casual fit. T-shirts are 6.1 oz. heavyweight 100% ring-spun cotton. Hoodies are 9.5 oz. 80/20 cotton-poly blend with a jersey-lined hood. Soft-washed so they feel broken-in from the first wear, not stiff or scratchy. See our Comfort Colors fit guide for full sizing details.
Will the print fade, crack, or peel?
Our designs are direct-to-garment (DTG) printed on pre-shrunk Comfort Colors garments, similar to screen printing but with sharper detail. Each garment is pretreated before printing, and the ink bonds directly into the ring-spun cotton fibers. No cracking, no peeling, no fading.
Do you offer free shipping?
We know shipping costs add up, so we pay shipping on all U.S. orders over $75. Just our way of saying thanks for shopping with a Maine company.
Do you offer wholesale hoodies, sweatshirts, and t-shirts for your Bass Harbor apparel?
Yes. We offer bulk pricing on all of our apparel, including Bass Harbor hoodies, sweatshirts, and t-shirts. Pricing is based on your specific order, and larger quantities mean better pricing. Contact us with your specific needs and quantities and we will put together a quote for you.
Will the colors match exactly what I see on screen?
Product images are digital mockups and may differ slightly from the finished garment. Colors can appear different depending on your screen's settings, and because every Comfort Colors piece is individually garment-dyed, natural shade variation occurs between batches. Print placement and size may also shift slightly from the mockup. These variations are part of what makes garment-dyed apparel unique and are not considered defects.
