New at High Tide Coffee: Hoodie & Tide Tumbler — Plus Sweatshirts & Merch

Every now and then, a merch release shows up that just feels right, the kind of drop that slips naturally into the rhythm of coastal living, like it’s been part of our shops for years. This season, that moment belongs to two everyday essentials our community has been asking for: the new High Tide Hoodie and our updated Tide Tumbler / Solstice Sipper.

Alongside these new arrivals, we’re also highlighting some of the familiar favorites our guests already know and love, our crewneck sweatshirts, High Tide apparel, and the thoughtfully curated pieces found throughout our in-shop Mercantile.

Together, it’s a collection that feels unmistakably High Tide: warm, welcoming, and rooted in the way our coastal neighborhoods actually move. Foggy harbor mornings in Oceanside. Hoodie-weather evenings in San Clemente. Sunny midday iced coffee breaks in Laguna Niguel. These are essentials built for here.

But before we get lost in the details (we will), let’s talk about why these pieces matter.

Why Everyday Essentials Feel So Right for Coastal Southern California

Life along our coastline is equal parts calm and lively. You’ll see surfers heading out at dawn wrapped in hoodies, families strolling through town with cold brew in hand, and early risers settling into our shops with laptops, journals, or a quiet moment before the day picks up speed.

The weather shifts gently throughout the day, cool mornings, warm afternoons, breezy sunsets. That’s why what we wear and carry needs to adapt effortlessly. Nothing overly heavy. Nothing too precious. Just well-made pieces that make sense for the way we live.

That mindset inspired this seasonal update:

A hoodie designed for comfort.
A tumbler designed for hot or iced drinks.
And dependable apparel that feels good day after day.

These aren’t items trying to stand out, they’re meant to fit in, be lived in, and become part of your routine.

The High Tide Hoodie — Soft, Coastal, and Made for Cool Mornings

Hoodies are practically a uniform in Southern California. Whether it’s January or June, there’s almost always a moment in the day when one feels just right. The High Tide Hoodie was designed with that exact moment in mind.

It’s warm without being heavy, soft without feeling delicate, and relaxed in that easy coastal way that feels natural the second you put it on.

Picture a crisp Oceanside morning, marine layer still hugging the pier. You slip on the hoodie, grab your latte, and take a slow walk toward the sound of the waves. Or maybe it’s an evening in San Clemente, the sun dipping low, the air cooling just enough to call for a comfortable layer that doesn’t weigh you down.

This hoodie isn’t flashy. It’s practical, understated, and quietly one of our favorite things we’ve ever made.

The Tide Tumbler / Solstice Sipper — One Tumbler, Every Kind of Day

Whether you know it as the Tide Tumbler or the Solstice Sipper Iced Tumbler (20 oz), it’s the same idea: a simple, durable tumbler designed to handle whatever your day brings.

Hot coffee on the morning drive? It holds the heat.
Cold brew on a sunny afternoon? It stays chilled.
A shaken espresso between errands? It fits perfectly in your cup holder.

That versatility makes sense here. We’re the people who order iced drinks year-round. We bring tumblers to the beach, to work, to kids’ activities, and on long weekend drives up the coast. A good tumbler becomes part of daily life.

This one is lightweight, matte-finished, and easy to carry. Pick it up once, and it quickly earns its place in your routine.

Our Go-To Crewneck Sweatshirts — Familiar Favorites, Made to Last

While the hoodie and tumbler are new, our crewneck sweatshirts have long been a staple for our community.

Inspired by our shops and the people who spend time in them, these sweatshirts are designed for comfort, durability, and everyday wear.

If you’ve visited our Laguna Niguel location, you’ve likely noticed the megalodon fossil that always captures kids’ attention. That inspired our youth shark designs, created with a local artist and loved by families who tell us, “Our kids love your coffee shop, and we actually get to drink our coffee in peace.”

Our adult crewnecks, like the Thirsty Shark, Share Surfer Girls, and San Clemente Shop designs, are made with soft, medium-heavy cotton-poly blends, ribbed collars that hold their shape, and no itchy seams. They’re the sweatshirts you reach for on early mornings, evening walks, road trips, and long coffee shop stays.

Simply put, they’re dependable layers you’ll keep coming back to.

Also Available: High Tide Merch & Our In-Shop Mercantile

One thing guests love about High Tide Coffee is that every shop feels a little like a treasure hunt. Our Mercantile spaces feature small-batch goods from local makers, items chosen because they make meaningful gifts or simple indulgences for yourself.

You might find:

•  Local honey that tastes like sunshine
•  Hand-poured soy candles from nearby artisans
•  Coastal-inspired art
•  Kids’ toys and thoughtful gifts
•  High Tide hats, mugs, shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, and drinkware

Our apparel and Mercantile collections evolve with the seasons, but the heart behind them stays the same: supporting local creators and offering pieces that feel intentional, functional, and unmistakably coastal.

Inspired by the People Who Walk Through Our Doors

Everything we create is shaped by our community, the early risers in Laguna Niguel, the surfers coming in sandy and smiling in Oceanside, the families lingering over slow Saturday mornings in San Clemente.

The hoodie came from people wanting something warm and dependable.
The tumbler came from people wanting drinkware that could keep up.
The sweatshirts and Mercantile grew from a desire to create comfort and connection beyond the cup.

We listen. We pay attention. And when something feels right for the community, we make it happen.

Where to Find These Essentials — And a Warm Invitation

You can shop the High Tide Hoodie, Tide Tumbler / Solstice Sipper, crewneck sweatshirts, and High Tide merch in-store or online at:

High Tide Coffee

If something catches your eye, grabbing it sooner rather than later is always a good idea, seasonal releases tend to move quickly.

We roast coffee with the intention of bringing people together, and our merch follows that same philosophy. Each piece is designed to support your day, spark joy, and feel like a natural extension of the spaces we’ve built.

So here’s your invitation: swing by. Try on the hoodie or a crewneck. Pick up the tumbler you’ll end up using every single day. Wander through the Mercantile and discover something from a local maker who pours just as much heart into their craft as we do into ours.

Whether you’re here for your morning latte or just stopping through on a coastal adventure, we’re always happy to see you.

Here’s to comfort, community, and the kind of everyday essentials that make life feel a little better.

See you soon, friends!
