Kittery Sweatshirts, Hoodies, & T-Shirts
Kittery sweatshirts, t-shirts, & hoodies printed exclusively on premium garment-dyed Comfort Colors apparel. Original designs from a Maine apparel company, created by local Maine graphic artists. Premium layers for Maine's first town.
Kittery Sweatshirts, Where Maine Begins
Kittery sweatshirts represent the first town you hit when you cross the Piscataqua River bridge into Maine. The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (yes, it's actually in Kittery), the outlet stores, and Kittery Point with its fort and ocean views. Most people blow through on their way up Route 1. The ones who stop discover a town with more history than most of the coast combined. Our Comfort Colors garment-dyed apparel is heavyweight, pre-shrunk, and soft from the start. Kittery, Maine clothing from a company that values the first impression. Our Vintage Kittery sweatshirt is the no-frills pick.
Kittery Hoodies, Border Town Layers
Kittery, ME catches the same nor'easters that hit the New Hampshire seacoast, and the river wind adds an edge. Our Kittery Flag sweatshirt runs on the Comfort Colors 1567: 9.5 oz. heavyweight, jersey-lined hood, garment-dyed for color that only gets better. Kittery hoodies are the layer for outlet shopping in November or walking Fort McClary in March. See our York Beach apparel for the next town up the coast.
Kittery T-Shirts, First Town Summer
Kittery t-shirts work all summer when the Foreside fills with locals, the seafood restaurants open their patios, and Kittery Point becomes the best-kept beach secret on the southern coast. Our Kittery Sailboat hoodie layers nicely for evening harbor walks. Garment-dyed Comfort Colors tees are heavyweight cotton that starts soft and stays that way.
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 Kittery clothing products the same as typical Kittery 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 $50. Just our way of saying thanks for shopping with a Maine company.
Do you offer wholesale hoodies, sweatshirts, and t-shirts for your Kittery apparel?
Yes. We offer bulk pricing on all of our apparel, including Kittery 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.
