Custom Marine Layer is now live at Merchwell. Twenty-three pieces order with your company's logo embroidered or printed: Sunset and Afternoon hoodies, Cloud 9 fleece hoodies and crewnecks, the Corbet quilted jacket, bomber, vest and quarter-zip, the Re-Spun Sport Quarter-Zip, and the Signature tee, in men's and women's cuts. Pricing starts at $45.00 for a 24-piece run of tees and drops to $31.00 at volume. Marine Layer built its name on being the softest thing in the closet, and that is exactly why people keep wearing it after the offsite ends.
The numbers to plan around: 24 pieces minimum per style, with volume breaks at 72, 144, 288, 500, and 1,000 pieces that take 28 to 32 percent off the entry price. A 24-piece run of the Sunset Pullover Hoodie prices at $95.00 each, and the same run of the Signature tee lands at $45.00. Typical delivery is three to four weeks from mockup approval.
Marine Layer started in San Francisco in 2009 selling one absurdly soft tee, and it grew into a full apparel line without ever losing that single obsession. You find it on people who work in tech, live near water, and dress down on purpose. That reputation does work your logo cannot do on its own.
Here is how ordering custom Marine Layer works, which pieces we would build a program around, and what each one costs at the quantities companies actually order.
Why custom Marine Layer is different from standard corporate apparel
Most branded apparel fails one of two ways. It is cheap and it goes straight to the donation pile, or it is decent but anonymous, so it blends into the stack of logo fleeces everyone already owns. Marine Layer avoids both, and the reason is structural rather than aesthetic.
You cannot buy it blank. Marine Layer does not sell undecorated product to companies that want to print it themselves. Every branded order runs through the co-branding program, which means we place it and your logo goes on at the source. That sounds like a restriction. It is the whole advantage, because it keeps quality controlled and keeps the brand off the discount racks where most corporate apparel ends up.
Softness is the entire product. Supima cotton on the tees, Cloud 9 fleece on the sweatshirts, and a quilted Corbet shell on the outerwear. People decide what to wear by feel before they decide by logo, and this is the rare corporate piece that wins the first test. PPAI research on promotional products puts apparel among the longest-kept categories companies hand out, well ahead of desk items.
One brand covers the whole budget range. A $45.00 tee for the all-hands, a $103.00 crewneck for the department, a $155.00 Corbet jacket for the people you are actually trying to keep. Same label, one decoration standard, one supplier to chase. Our corporate swag boxes guide shows how to stack those tiers into a single kit.
The custom Marine Layer collection: the pieces to build around
We carry 23 Marine Layer pieces and will not walk through all of them. These seven cover nearly every order we quote. Prices are per piece at a 24-piece run, with the volume floor in parentheses, and every product name links to live pricing at your quantity.
Custom Marine Layer tees
Marine Layer Men's Signature T-Shirt, $45.00 at 24 pieces (from $31.00).
The one everybody actually wears. This is the shirt the company was built on, in Supima cotton that survives a hundred washes without going stiff. It is also the one tier where screen printing beats embroidery, because a large soft-hand print on this fabric reads better than thread. A women's cut runs the same price, so mixed teams order it as one line.
Custom Marine Layer hoodies and crewnecks
Marine Layer Men's Sunset Pullover Hoodie, $95.00 at 24 pieces (from $65.00).
The safe default. Made in the USA, midweight, and cut close enough that people wear it out of the house. If you are ordering one piece for the whole company, order this one.
Marine Layer Cloud 9 Fleece Relaxed Hoodie, $115.00 at 24 pieces (from $80.00).
The step up in feel. Cloud 9 fleece is the softest thing in the lineup and the reason people ask where the hoodie came from. A relaxed crewneck version runs $103.00 at 24 pieces and layers better under a jacket.
Marine Layer Afternoon Full Zip Hoodie, $103.28 at 24 pieces (from $70.22).
The best seller. A full zip reads less casual than a pullover, which is why it survives in offices where a hoodie normally would not. Made in the USA as well.
Custom Marine Layer quarter-zips
Marine Layer Men's Re-Spun Sport Quarter Zip, $95.00 at 24 pieces (from $65.00).
The meeting layer. Re-Spun fabric is made from recycled material, which matters when sustainability language shows up in your brand guidelines. Put a tone-on-tone logo on it and it stops reading as company apparel entirely. Our eco-friendly corporate gifts guide covers where recycled materials earn the premium and where they do not.
Custom Marine Layer jackets and vests
Marine Layer Men's Corbet Full Zip Vest, $131.00 at 24 pieces (from $92.00).
The shoulder-season pick. Quilted warmth that layers over a hoodie without the bulk of a real jacket. In most of the country this is the piece that gets worn from October through March.
Marine Layer Men's Corbet Full Zip Jacket, $155.00 at 24 pieces (from $111.00).
The recognition piece. At this price you are not buying company swag, you are buying a gift, and the women's Corbet bomber runs the same number. Spend here on the people whose names you would list if someone asked who carried the year. Our client gift ideas guide covers when it is worth putting this much behind one piece.
Marine Layer compared to the other brands we carry
Four of our apparel brands overlap on price, so the real question is what the piece signals rather than what it costs.
Vuori is the performance version. It is technical knit with a studio-to-street read, and it moves faster than anything else we carry. Marine Layer is the weekend counterpart: cotton and fleece instead of performance fabric, softer in the hand, less gym. Order Vuori for a team that trains, and Marine Layer for a team that would rather not be reminded of work.
Patagonia brings a position with it. The environmental stance transfers to your company the moment your logo goes on, which helps when your brand can back it and hurts when it cannot. Marine Layer arrives with less baggage and a lower entry price. Our custom Patagonia guide covers where that trade lands.
The North Face wins outdoors. Its outerwear is built for cold and weather, and nothing in the Marine Layer line competes with a real technical shell. The Corbet quilted pieces stop right about where North Face starts. If the offsite involves a mountain, order the other one.
TravisMathew reads golf. That is either exactly right or exactly wrong depending on the room, and our custom TravisMathew lineup is the deeper one if the answer is right. Marine Layer is the safer pick when you do not know the audience, because nobody has to play to appreciate it.
How custom Marine Layer with your logo works
The rules hold across the whole lineup, and they are simpler than most brands we carry.
Minimums are 24 pieces per style. Men's and women's cuts count separately, so plan both from the start if your team needs them. You can mix colors and sizes inside a style to reach the number.
Decoration is embroidery on almost everything. The exceptions run in your favor. Supima cotton pieces like the Signature tee and the Sunset hoodie can also be screen printed, which handles logos with fine detail that thread would lose. Quilted Corbet pieces are embroidery only, because you cannot print across a baffle. Our guide to printing techniques covers which method wins where.
Production runs three to four weeks. The clock starts when you approve the mockup, not when you first call us. Tighter deadlines are often possible, so send your date rather than assuming the answer.
Pricing drops in six steps. Breaks land at 24, 72, 144, 288, 500, and 1,000 pieces, and the gap between the first tier and the last is 28 to 32 percent. On a year-long program, buying once at volume and holding stock in our storage and fulfillment service beats reordering every quarter at the 24-piece rate.
What does custom Marine Layer cost?
Three lanes cover most orders. Prices here are per piece at a 24-piece run, with decoration included.
Around $45 a head. The Signature tee, men's or women's. Event shirts, all-hands giveaways, and the filler piece in a bigger kit that does not feel like filler.
$95 to $127 a head. The Sunset hoodie and Re-Spun quarter-zip at $95.00, the Cloud 9 relaxed crewneck at $103.00, the Afternoon full zip at $103.28, and the Cloud 9 hoodies from $115.00 to $127.00. This is the department rollout range, and where most new hire welcome kits land. SHRM has reported that employees who go through a structured onboarding experience are far more likely to still be there three years later, and the kit is the part of that experience people physically keep.
$131 to $155 a head. The Corbet vest at $131.00, and the Corbet jacket, bomber, and quilted quarter-zip at $155.00. Client gifts and milestone recognition, where one piece carries the whole message.
Those are entry numbers, and they move a lot. At 288 pieces the Signature tee drops to $34.00 and the Sunset hoodie to $71.00. At 1,000 they land at $31.00 and $65.00.
How to order custom Marine Layer for your team
1. Pick your pieces. Start in Pack Builder, or send a headcount and a per-person budget and we will come back with a mix.
2. Send your logo. Vector artwork is best. We will flag anything too fine to hold in thread at chest size and suggest a print instead where the fabric allows it.
3. Approve the mockup. You see placement, thread colors, and final pricing before anything runs. Nothing goes into production without your sign-off.
4. Choose how it ships. Everything to one office, or straight to each person. Claim Pages lets recipients enter their own size and address, which saves the spreadsheet round-trip on a distributed team.
Apparel earns its budget slowly and then all at once. ASI's 2026 Ad Impressions Study found people hold onto branded outerwear for about 16 months and generate roughly 9,000 impressions with it along the way, which is more mileage than any conference lanyard will ever deliver. What Marine Layer adds is that the 16 months are not grudging. If you are pointing this at Q4, our corporate holiday gifts guide covers the order timelines, and custom Vuori is the closest comparison if your team skews performance over weekend.
