Two sticks cross behind a shield with the dog at its centre, GOLDEN on the gold banner above it, RETRIEVERS on the banner below, and a puck at the point. Every piece of it stands slightly proud of the piece behind it, which keeps the drawing open — it never closes up into a solid block the way a tighter crest does.
Independent Trading Co. IND4000, a heavyweight hooded sweatshirt at 10 oz/yd² (340 g/m²) — a quarter heavier than the crewneck in this shop, and you can feel the difference lifting it. 70% cotton to 30% polyester, though the exact blend varies. Fleece-lined hood, split-stitch double-needle sewing on every seam, 1x1 ribbing at the cuffs and waistband, tear-away label. One print, on the chest. The back, the hood and the sleeves are left plain.
S to 3XL, unisex, cut classic. Take your usual size — this is a heavy fleece and it is roomy enough as it stands, unless you mean to get a layer underneath it.
Cold wash, inside out, low tumble. A hot dryer flattens fleece, so give it less heat than you think it wants.
