Contrarian Clothing Company of Harpswell, Maine

In Maine, you are either “from here” or you are “from away.” If you are “from away” you can never be “from here.” But if you are “from here” you can be “from away” somewhere else. In other words, at some point in everyone’s life they are “from away.” If this makes sense to you so does FROM AWAY™ gear.

This site and our products are for those of you who are sufficiently strong of will and who, rather than pretending they are “from here,” have no problem proudly saying, I'm “from away.”

Wear and use FROM AWAY™ and FROM AWAY CRUISING ASSOCIATION gear in good health and in the good spirit they were intended.
