Our Story

A Delmarva Original

We’re Steve and Kristel, and Tidewater Threads is our family-run brand here on the Eastern Shore. This isn’t a big company — it’s just us, making small-batch apparel out of a small workshop at home and staying true to the place we call home.

Delmarva has a rhythm all its own — water and farmland, woods and marshes, backroads and small towns. That’s what shapes our designs. No gimmicks. No fast fashion. Just gear that feels like it belongs here.

We keep our runs limited to get the details right — garment-dyed tees, soft-washed sweatshirts, and honest designs tied to everyday Shore life.

This isn’t a tourist brand or a trend. It’s small-batch gear made for Delmarva, plain and simple.

Between tides and tree lines — that’s where you’ll find us.
