Who doesn't love Gertie? Steve hand-drew this adorable Hurdy Gertie design for everyone to enjoy. We all love this hoodie and we’re sure you will too! Design © 2023 Printibee LLC.
This Gildan® 18500 Unisex Heavy Blend™ Adult Hooded Sweatshirt is relaxation itself. Made with a thick blend of cotton and polyester, it feels plush, soft and warm, a perfect choice for any cold day. In the front, the spacious kangaroo pocket adds daily practicality while the hood’s drawstring is the same color as the base sweater for extra style points.
Key features:
-
Spacious pockets: Kangaroo-pouch front pocket will always keep your hands warm.
-
Drawstring hood: Adjustable hood with self-colored woven cord.
-
No side seams: Knitted in one piece using a tubular knit, it reduces fabric waste & makes the garment more attractive
-
50% Cotton / 50% polyester: Made from specially spun fibers that make for a very strong, smooth fabric. Polyester fibers are extremely resilient, resistant to most chemicals, stretching, and shrinking.
- Medium-heavy fabric (8.0 oz/yd² (271 g/m²)).
- Classic fit.
- Runs true to size.
- Made & printed in the USA.
Hooded sweatshirt printing process:
This is a direct-to-garment printed item, which will not crack or peel like a vinyl iron-on graphic would. The ink is printed directly from a printer into the fabric (not sitting on top of it), so it may look a little “grungy” in comparison with the images in this listing (this is normal & expected). Also, if the hoodie has a vinegar-like scent, it is likely due to the fabric treatment the printer uses to help the ink permanently blend into the fabric; it should go away after 1–2 washes. If it is still present after 2 washes, please reach out to us and we will help you correct this issue.
Please note:
Due to monitor & device differences, the actual color of the finished graphic, size of the graphic & hoodie color may vary slightly from the photos in the listing.
Washing instructions:
For a longer lasting design, always machine wash inside out in warm or cold water with similar colors. Not washing inside out can stretch the fibers, which then stretch the embedded graphic, and it may end up cracking. Tumble dry on low or air dry for the longest life. Bleach as needed. Do not dry clean. If you iron, use steam or dry on low heat; avoid ironing directly on or near the printed design.
Size:
The Gildan 18500 hoodie that you’ve ordered is a unisex size (it is not like a women’s fitted shirt). If you would like a more fitted look, we suggest sizing down from your normal size. For a more relaxed look, order 1–2 sizes larger. Not sure which size to buy? Just lay your favorite hoodie out on a flat surface & measure from armpit to armpit and compare to the size chart in the listing.
Returns or exchanges:
Due to the nature of personalized items, all of our hooded sweatshirts are custom printed just for you; therefore we do not accept returns or exchanges, even in the case of incorrect order sizing. If there are any issues with the hoodie (damaged in shipping, poor print quality, etc.), please feel free to message us so we can help.
Production & shipping:
Please allow 7–10 business days once you receive your tracking number to receive your item. If you have any issues at all with your item, please let us know so we can make sure that you're happy with your hoodie! :)
