Must-Have Staten Island Ferry Gifts (For Every Proud Islander!)
For Staten Islanders who regularly take the ferry, it's more than just a commute; it's a daily ritual, a view that never gets old, and a reminder of home (and a long commute we look forward to never doing again someday—sigh). We might not be able to sell you a whole ferry (sorry, Pete Davidson and Colin Jost—bet you're regretting that one!), but here's a better, more manageable way to bring that hometown pride into your or someone else's life. For those of us who've mastered the art of sprinting through the terminal while simultaneously dodging tourists and questionable puddles, these items are for you.
Staten Island Ferry Embroidered Hats
Show your Staten Island pride with one of these embroidered hats! Choose from the classic Organic Dad Hat, the relaxed Denim Hat, or the versatile white Dad Hat—each featuring a simple ferry illustration that nods to the island's roots. Perfect for anyone who's ever navigated the "interesting characters" at the ferry terminal or knows the terror of watching those doors close just as you're running to catch the next boat.
Staten Island Ferry Enamel Pin
Small but mighty, this enamel pin is a subtle tribute to Staten Island pride. Great for pinning on bags, hats, or jackets. This small but mighty enamel pin represents over 200 years of Staten Island Ferry history. Since 1817, the ferry has been connecting Staten Island to Manhattan, and now you can carry a piece of that legacy with you. Show off your Staten Island heritage without having to actually talk to anyone on your commute. It's a win-win!
Staten Island Ferry Mug
New York is famous for its delis, and every New Yorker knows the importance of a good coffee. This glossy mug is perfect for starting the day with a bit of Staten Island nostalgia, ideal for those who miss the view from the ferry on a crisp morning. It's something even Seinfeld characters would probably keep in the cupboard! Because nothing says 'I love NY' quite like chugging coffee to stay awake after missing the midnight ferry and having to wait for the 1 AM boat.
Staten Island Ferry Pint Glass
Perfect for the Staten Islander who loves a drink with a good view and a nice breeze. This pint glass brings back that unbeatable feeling of a cold beer on the ferry ride home after work on a warm summer Friday. Since becoming free in 1997, the Staten Island Ferry has become an even more integral part of New York City life, carrying millions of passengers each year. The commute might not be perfect, but a drink in this glass at least makes it memorable.
