Sunshine, salty breezes, and the storied charm of Annapolis—summer on the Yard is something special. Whether you're touring the historic grounds of the U.S. Naval Academy, grabbing a bite at The Alley Restaurant or 1845 Coffee, or cheering on the mids from afar, there's one thing that ties it all together: showing your Navy pride in style.
This season, you can savor summer and support midshipmen at the same time with fresh drops of authentic USNA apparel, Navy clothing, and gear that stands out for its quality and purpose. When you shop with us, you’re not just buying a shirt—you’re investing in the future of America’s military leaders.
Let’s talk summer essentials. When the temperatures rise, comfort is key—but who says you can’t keep it stylish too?
Our new collection of summer shirts and summer tops is designed to keep you cool, comfortable, and Navy proud. From lightweight moisture-wicking polos to soft cotton tees with bold USNA graphics, you’ll find the perfect piece to carry that Yard spirit wherever summer takes you. Planning to stroll along Ego Alley or picnic by the Severn? Our women’s tanks and men’s short-sleeved button-downs bring the cool factor with a nautical flair.
Not all Naval Academy clothing is created equal. When you shop with us—whether online or at the USNA Gift Shop or Midshipmen Store—you’re purchasing officially licensed Navy clothing that benefits the Brigade directly. That’s right: the profit from every hoodie, hat, and pair of socks goes toward supporting midshipmen programs, leadership development, and morale-boosting events.
Unlike big-box stores or off-brand merch, this is REAL Navy gear with a mission. And who doesn’t love knowing their purchase is doing double duty—looking great and giving back?
Repping USNA isn’t just for game days. Whether you're a proud parent, an alum, a future mid, or just someone who loves what the Naval Academy stands for, our gear is a great way to wear your support.
Some of our customer favorites this summer include:
Along with summer tops and shirts, check out our latest accessories and essentials, like tote bags, sunglasses, and more hats for days. Heading out for a weekend getaway?

If you’re planning a visit to Annapolis, make sure to stop by the Naval Academy Visitor Center and browse our USNA Gift Shop in person. It's the best way to experience the spirit of the Academy—and snag the best gear while you're there. Plus, shopping onsite gives you the full circle moment: seeing the midshipmen you’re directly supporting as they train, lead, and prepare to serve.
This summer, skip the mass-produced imitations. Choose gear that carries the weight of tradition and the promise of tomorrow. Every purchase you make helps fuel the mission of the U.S. Naval Academy—developing leaders who will preserve peace and prevail in conflict.
So go ahead, savor summer on the Yard. Suit up in USNA apparel that looks sharp, feels great, and gives back.
Because when you wear real Navy clothing, you're not just showing support. You're making a difference.
