Gifts from Kotzebue
Kotzebue is a city of a few thousand people on the northwest coast of Alaska, above the Arctic Circle, where the Inupiat community has lived for a very long time. Someone from there, or someone who spent years working or teaching in town, carries that place with them far beyond the Arctic, and a shirt with the name is a quiet way of saying where they belong. Because the city is small and remote, a Kotzebue design tends to be a conversation starter, the kind of thing a friend notices and asks about. For the person who left home for school or a job in the Lower 48, a hoodie is the warm pick for the first winter that feels nothing like the coast they grew up on. A mug works well for the kitchen table of someone who still calls home every week. Add a year, a school class or a family name in the second line, and the design becomes about their own story as well as the city's.
Kotzebue gift questions
Can I add a year or a family name under Kotzebue?
Many designs have a second line. Type a year, a class, or a family name there and the preview will show how it sits under the city name before you order.
Is Kotzebue a good gift for someone who moved away?
Often, yes. People who left a small place usually value something that marks where they came from, and a shirt, hoodie or mug with the town name does that every time they wear it.
What if I want the design to match a whole group?
Use the Team Shop to choose one Kotzebue design and paste a list of names. Each person picks a size and gets their own shirt with their name on it.
What sizes do the kotzebue shirts come in?
Adult tees come in S to 3XL. Hoodies, kids tees and onesies list their own sizes on each product page.
How long does a Kotzebue gift take to arrive?
Each order is printed after you place it, in 2 to 4 business days, then ships by ground in 3 to 5 business days. The product page shows the delivery window for today's orders.
What if the print has a mistake?
