Mer Sea Designs
At MerSea Designs, we believe in evangelizing without saying a word. We create high-quality, Catholic-inspired apparel and accessories that help you wear your faith on your sleeve—literally. Driven by a passion for design and a love for the Church, we’re here to help you reflect Christ everywhere you go.
MerSea Designs is a small family apostolate, not a large corporation. We started this journey because we are in love with our Catholic faith and wanted a way to share that love through beautiful, well-crafted fashion.
When you shop with us, you can rest easy knowing your values are protected. Unlike many modern brands, we never funnel profits into causes that oppose Catholic teachings. Instead, a portion of every sale goes directly to pro-life and pro-Catholic organizations. When you support MerSea, you aren’t just buying a shirt—you’re supporting a small family apostolate that believes what you believe.
Thank you for your patronage, we are humbled by your prayers and support.
I saw a group of people praying the rosary on the beach a couple of them were wearing these awesome shirts. They showed me the website and now I have a few of the catholic button up shirts, I'm always getting the best compliments about them.
Product quality is top-notch. Size and fit are AMAZING. Will be wearing this to my upcoming retreat. I honestly can’t recommend them enough.
Awesome catholic hoodies. So cozy! Great Fit! It's perfect. Great way to wear my faith on my sleeve! I will definitely be coming back.
About Us
We are a Catholic, family-owned apostolate based in sunny Southern California and dedicated to sharing our Faith through Fashion for the Greater Glory of God. Our name is a playful nod to the ocean we love {inspired by Christina's love for the sea} and a tribute to the daily gifts of Grace and Mercy we receive.
Led by designer (and self-proclaimed mermaid) Christina Chidley, we balance our addiction to summer fun, with a deep devotion to faith and family. Based in landlocked reality, but with a saltwater soul, Christina, balances her time between her growing family, teaching catechism with her homeschool co-op, creating awesome designs, and being a Son Chaser (as well as a sun-chaser).
Whether you found us online or at a pop-up event, we are honored to serve you.
We hope our "Catholic" Hawaiian Shirts help you "Live in the Light", to be Salt & Sol (light) for those around you. We believe every creation we make should honor God, which is why, a portion of every sale supports Pro-Life and Catholic charities.
