Oxford Shirts, fisherman's sweaters, waxed-cotton jackets: The Marblehead Look is getting exported. F.L. Woods, the town's oldest shop and arbiter of its preppy look, has a new website that aims to bring yacht club-casual to the landlocked.

F. L. Woods wasn’t always in the clothing business. The oldest continuously operating store in town traces its roots back to 1935, and is deeply intertwined with Marblehead’s history as a maritime destination.

For seventy five years, F.L. Woods, a venerable Marblehead clothing store has been outfitting sailors and lovers of the sea. Now, their line of relaxed fine apparel is designed in the shop and made in America.
