Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore is Charm City, Mobtown and B'more, and the people who live here will use all three in one conversation, hon. Fort McHenry is where the flag flew through the bombardment that became the national anthem in 1814. Fells Point still has its cobblestones and its tugboats, Federal Hill looks down over the Inner Harbor, and the Washington Monument in Mount Vernon Place went up decades before the one in D.C. Hampden's 34th Street does Christmas lights like a dare, Patterson Park has a pagoda, Lexington Market has been selling crab cakes since 1782, and the formstone rowhouses with their marble steps are the city's real architecture.

Our Baltimore collection is drawn for people who know how to pick a crab. The crewneck sweatshirt carries a star-and-rampart badge in Maryland black and gold, Fort McHenry red and harbor blue, with the 1729 founding year worked into the arc. The tee goes cleaner, a BALTIMORE wordmark with a small Maryland-flag chevron under it, made for a Canton waterfront walk or a Fells Point stool. The mug is for the rowhouse stoop. The sticker goes on the cooler that comes to every crab feast.

Everything is original artwork, printed to order in the USA and shipped quickly. It is for lifers from Highlandtown and Hampden, for the med students and art students who stayed, for the ones who moved to D.C. for work and come home on weekends, and for anyone who left and still cannot eat a crab cake anywhere else.
