Santa Monica is where Los Angeles runs out of land, and it makes the most of the edge. Palisades Park stretches a mile and a half of palms along the bluff above the beach, the pier has reached out over the water since 1909, and the Strand bike path runs south past the volleyball nets toward Venice with the whole bay in view. Montana Avenue has the boutiques and the coffee lines, Main Street has the surf shops and the Sunday farmers' market, and Tongva Park turned a parking lot into hills, overlooks and a playground. June Gloom hangs over everything until noon, and then the light comes in and you understand why the rent is what it is.

Our Santa Monica collection is drawn from that bluff. The crewneck sweatshirt carries a palms-over-the-bay badge in Pacific blue and sand with a sunset-gold accent and the 1886 incorporation year, which is exactly what a marine-layer morning calls for. The tee is lighter, the city name over a thin wave line, right for a ride down the Strand or an afternoon on the sand. The mug and sticker set share the same artwork.

Everything is original, printed to order in the USA and shipped in a few days. It is for the people who grew up north of Montana, the ones who moved here for the job and stayed for the sunsets, and everyone who left SaMo and still misses the bluff at golden hour.

Santa Monica apparel FAQ

Is this official Santa Monica or pier merchandise?+

No. Every design is original artwork by independent designers. We are not affiliated with the City of Santa Monica, the pier, any amusement park or any local business.

Is the Santa Monica crewneck right for a marine-layer morning?+

That is the whole idea. It is a midweight 50/50 cotton-poly fleece, warm enough for a foggy walk on the bluff and easy to tie around your waist once the sun comes out. Fabric and sizing are on each product page.

How quickly can you ship to the Westside?+
