A deep pine green crewneck with “MAKE MAINE YOURS” embroidered across the chest in citron. Simple, striking, and made for the in-between days: woodstove mornings, chilly walks to the coffee shop, the first fire of the season, or just feeling put-together around town.
“Make Maine Yours” is the little nudge behind everything we do. We’ve spent over a decade sharing the places, people, and moments that make this state special, but the best part was always what you do with it. This is your reminder to take the inspiration and run with it: find your own trailhead, your own corner booth, your own stretch of rocky shore. Maine is meant to be explored by you, enjoyed by you, and in your own way. Here’s to Making Maine Yours!
Made in Maine. Heavyweight. 80% cotton 20% recycled polyester CVC fleece. Cotton facing on fleece. Pre-shrunk to minimize shrinkage, dropped shoulders, inset sleeves, 2x2 ribbing on neck, cuff and hem.
A spruce island off the coast of Maine, granite skirts slipping into the lapping waves. A cottage, a fishing shack, or maybe the slipway on the leeward side. The scene is yours to interpret, because it’s such a quintessential Maine sight. Maybe you’ve paddled there. Maybe you’ve painted it. Maybe it’s still a destination in your dreams.
The sea grass tee is warm and sunny against the pine ink: bright for a summer day, cheery for a cool one. Wherever you wear it, make Maine yours.

Series Three looks at Maine through the lens of the four coordinates, but also at the ways humans and nature interact in our state. Starting with Issue 09: South, we paddle the length of Maine’s most urbanized river. In Issue 10: West, we dig deep into the history of Sugarloaf Mountain and Carrrabassett Valley. Issue 11: North tackles the last log drive, as well as a peek at the outdoor recreation that is filling in the gap the paper industry has left. And the most recent addition is Issue 12: East, which focuses on the dynamics between resource extraction and wilderness on the Downeast coastline.
This bundle makes the perfect gift for those passionate about Maine and eager to learn more.
