Local Artist Collection

This one’s for the early mornings, long days, and the people who keep showing up—for their community, their craft, and their coffee.

Our “Fueled by Local Coffee” hoodie is a cozy, everyday layer designed with intention and made to last. Designed and printed by our friends at Relentless Merch, this hoodie celebrates what keeps us going: local coffee and the people behind it.

Soft, comfortable, and easy to wear on repeat—whether you’re heading into the shop, settling in with a mug at home, or grabbing coffee with friends.

Thank you for supporting local—from the coffee in your cup to the artists who help tell our story.

Who’s ready for another preorder? We’re so excited to offer our newest in the Hardy Coffee Co T-Shirt Series: this time it is a special Chalco Drive-Thru exclusive designed by one of our favorites, local artist Julia McGuigan. See her work here.

An illustrator, educator, and Mom originally from Papillion, Julia now resides with her husband and three children in Benson. You may recognize her work from local markets where she sells art representing numerous Omaha neighborhoods. Maybe you remember the Benson patio illustration she created for a calendar featuring coffee shops a few years ago? That was her art. We were delighted when she agreed to create a t-shirt illustration for us.

What’s especially exciting about this particular design is it highlights the beauty of all the elements that make our @TACKarchitects designed Chalco Drive-Thru shop so unique. This is a preorder item, created in partnership with a local artist we love. Thank you for supporting small, local design and the stories that shape our shops

A collaboration rooted in creativity and community.

This design was created in partnership with Allie, founder of The Cold Hearted Co—a typography goods and gift brand built on bold color, humor, and a one-of-a-kind style meant to inspire and empower. Her work is intentionally designed to make you feel good and do good, now found in shops all over the world.

This piece was inspired by something we value deeply at Hardy: quality time spent together in coffee shops. No technology, no scrolling—just good coffee and conversation.

We’re so grateful to collaborate with local artists like Allie and bring designs like this to life. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Our Hardy Run Club shirts are here—well, almost!

Designed and printed locally by Joe Cutler at Yeti Creative Studios, these tees are as comfortable as they are good-looking. 

Whether you’re logging miles with the club or cheering from the coffee line, it’s the perfect way to rep Hardy and our running community. Preorder yours now to be sure you snag one.

Meet Betsy the Bison– brainchild of Joe Cutler, owner of Yeti Creative Studio, and designer of our newest pre-order t-shirt! We were delighted when Joe agreed to design something that represents Hardy Coffee Co to him.

“Coffee is such a habitual thing that is a part of my creative process, so meet the embodiment of that… BETSY the BISON.  She’s warm, she’s delightful, she’s glad to see y’all.

I want to encourage y'all to become a regular at your local coffee shop. It’s the best way to earn that “See you in the Mornin” from your favorite barista… who doesn’t judge you for cosplaying as an awake person right now.”

Outfit the newest Hardy Coffee fan with these onesies.

Screen printed by our friends at Relentless Merch, these tiny shirts are equal parts stylish and comfortable and a great addition to your shopping cart when gifting great coffee to fresh parents.

Created by our friend, Benson Barista, and super talented Graphic Designer Maddie Gromowsky, this design has a lot of meaningful elements.

We asked Maddie to tell us about her process and she had this to say:

I think that as a Barista I have seen not just what Hardy means to me - but also what it means to so many customers that love Hardy Coffee! Even if people aren't familiar with our shops, they are probably drinking Hardy Coffee at some of the other amazing shops around Omaha that serve our coffee. I've gotten to see firsthand how many customers truly love our coffee, as well as getting to meet so many people who are trying it for the first time! I LOVE getting to work for a coffee shop where when someone asks, "how is this made" or "where do you get your ingredients" I can always give a great answer & stand behind our process and recipes!

We think this shirt is amazing, and hope you do, too!

Anyone else like to get a momento when travelling? Our newest t-shirt design was created as an homage to this year’s coffee-sourcing trip to Guatemala.

We were delighted when our friend Mike DeKay, who serves as Partner and Creative Director of the local design and branding studio Grain and Mortar, agreed to design something that represents Hardy Coffee Co to him. 

“Inspired by Luke and Autumn’s recent journey to Guatemala, this shirt design brings the traditional hand-woven textile look into Hardy's brand identity.

I used the handmade cross-stitch pattern I created for the Dina Monterosso Farm special packaging and reinterpreted the Hardy bison and typography. The result is a textual, geometric look printed with indigo ink on an off-white cotton tee.” 

Mike pays a LOT of attention to the details, and is involved with a special offering we are launching soon, so he’s given a lot of thought to our product– we couldn’t be more excited to see this version of our mascot roaming the shops. Orders are open now, close Nov 22, and will deliver early December.

This fresh T-shirt design is perfect for anyone who is fueled by local coffee.
