Vintage Mackinau Sweatshirt

Editors Notes

Pale yellow crewneck sweatshirt; multicolor embroidered fish motif with repeated “Mackinaw” text at front chest; Lee cotton blend tag; ribbed collar, cuffs, and waistband; loopback interior; minor fading and small marks at front hem; relaxed vintage fit.

This piece comes from Lee, a classic American brand best known for its durable denim and casual workwear dating back to the late 19th century. By the 1980s and 1990s, Lee was also producing soft fleece and souvenir sweatshirts like this, often sold in resort towns and tourist destinations. The embroidered fish and “Mackinaw” script tap into that era’s love of playful, location-based graphics on easygoing basics. Today, vintage Lee sweatshirts are prized for their broken-in comfort, sturdy construction, and nostalgic Americana aesthetic. In a modern wardrobe, this sweatshirt pairs effortlessly with vintage jeans or joggers, offering a cozy, characterful alternative to contemporary logo fleece. For vintage lovers, the subtle wear and soft pastel tone only enhance its laid-back charm.
