a+g merch is HERE!

If you’ve been following along in my Instagram stories or newsletters this year then you already know I’ve been working on a new “merch drop”. Although it started off as “ammo+grace merch” it really morphed into some fun little designs to remind us of His promises and to support the TBL (thin blue line).

I’ve been trying out samples for the past month and a half to make sure everything is just right, and they’re finally ready to share! I sampled the actual clothes themselves (Comfort Colors adult shirts, always!) as well as the design, print quality, and production time.

And…it’s finally ready! There are five main designs: the TBL, the Good Plans, the Good Plans Smiley, the Refuge + Strength, and the Joshua Flag (for the kiddos)!

The Refuge + Strength comes from Psalm 46:1 which says “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble“. I absolutely love this verse for all of thin line life! Although I’m a law enforcement wife I know we have all types of first responder families in our little community, so I wanted a design that was inclusive to all thin lines (as well as those outside the first responder community!). It’s available in multiple colors of pullover as well as on a tee.

I shouldn’t have favorites, but the Good Plans Smiley (on the yellow tee!) is probably my fave! The design comes from Jeremiah 29:11 which says “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Life lately has seemed like a lot-especially thin line life-so I loved the reminder that no matter what happens, He has good plans for us. It’s available on a fun yellow tee, as well as classic LEO blue.

The Good Plans design is a smidge more masculine-perfect for LEOs but still cute for any thin line supporter! It also has a TBL design on the sleeve, which I love. It comes from the same verse as the smiley tee-Jeremiah 29:11. I really wanted to offer a hoodie with this design but I just haven’t been able to get the colors and print right. If I can nail it down, it’ll be listed-but I’m not putting anything in the shop I didn’t totally love, so stay posted on that one!

The Joshua Flag design is made especially for our littlest thin blue line supporters. It comes in both toddler and youth sizes and features Joshua 1:9 which says “”Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go“.” The fun font and thin blue line flag design are perfect for your littles and a more subtle way for them to back the blue. It’s the cheapest product in the shop-because who wants to spend a bunch of money on clothes when kiddos grow like weeds?!

The TBL design was my original design for this drop-and if you remember it was featured on keychains last year when I re-released sticker packs! The TBL stands for “thin blue line” but the “T” is a cross, standing for our faith and all that the cross and Jesus have done for us. It’s the perfect way to show support for both our law enforcement and our Lord, if you ask me! I also made a youth sweatshirt with this design, so you can match your littles if you want! I love long sleeve shirts, so it’s available as a long sleeve tee as well as on youth and adult pullovers. I also did a fun pocket tee that has the refuge + strength design on the back as a fun mash up-it’s the best of both worlds if you can’t choose your favorite design!

All designs are on unisex products. Adult tees are Comfort Colors brand, kiddo tees are Bella Canva, and pullovers are Gildan. Sizing info and measurements can be found in the product descriptions. I’m almost 5’9 and a comfy size 10, and I typically prefer medium shirts and large sweatshirts, but also like a large shirt to wear with leggings or bike shorts. I tried to be as inclusive in the sizing as I could, so most products go from S-4XL.

As a fun little surprise I also added in hats! Y’all loved the a+g hat drop last year, and I had a blast designing them and making them with a fellow mama owned small shop. She’s expecting another little of her own this year (eeek!) so another huge hat preorder just wasn’t in the cards right now. I decided to add TBL hats to this drop-it comes on a distressed “dad” hat (pretty similar to the hats I used last year, but with a Velcro back) and on a much requested trucker hat. I know I said I didn’t have favorites, but this hat is also one-I love the fun camo pattern and the subtle black and blue TBL design. Both hats are embroidered, which means the design won’t peel or fade off.

All products are made to order and shipped directly to you, which means it takes longer than the Amazon Prime we’re all used to! The manufacturer says to allow up to six weeks for delivery, but in my experience all of my samples came within two weeks. To make sure you’re not disappointed with a longer wait time, I’m saying to please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery. Hopefully they’ll arrive on the shorter end of things-weather permitting!

As promised I’m letting the a+g email fam (everyone who is subscribed) have first dibs on this first drop. The merch shop is “locked” to everyone else until tomorrow. Use code “thinlinefam” to get in!

You can find all of the new a+g products (as well as mugs!) here. Happy shopping! Thank you for supporting this little corner of the internet! Every purchase you make helps provide for my first responder family just a little bit, and I’m so grateful for you 🙂

Let me know if you have any questions, and tell me which design you love the most!

Xoxo, Cote
