Fresh Spring Colors for the Win

Spring is all about fresh starts, and that includes your wardrobe. Say goodbye to dark, drab winter wear and hello to bright, cheerful spring colors! The latest Navy clothing collections are bursting with crisp whites, bold blues, and sunny yellows - perfect for stepping into the spring season with style. Look for lightweight hoodies, soft T-shirts, and stylish polos in these vibrant hues, all featuring the classic Navy logo or anchor emblem. Whether you're strolling through the Yard or cheering on Navy athletics, you’ll be turning heads with your fresh new look.

Layer Up With Lightweight Navy Gear

The spring season can be unpredictable - one moment it’s sunny and warm, the next you’re caught in a surprise breeze. The key to spring season style? Layers!

Stock up on quarter-zips and windbreakers emblazoned with Navy logos, so you can stay comfortable no matter what Mother Nature throws your way. A breathable, moisture-wicking Navy performance jacket is perfect for outdoor workouts or morning jogs along the Severn River. And don’t forget a cozy, lightweight hoodie for those cooler evenings - ideal for throwing on over your favorite tee when the sun dips behind the clouds.

Women’s Quarter-Zip Fleece: Try on this Women’s USNA/Anchor ¼ Zip Fleece for size. In a sweet pink hue, it’s a lighter weight fleece that’s soft and springlike. Take it to the spring season games to stay warm in the wind, or out for a walk when the weather is fickle.
