Overdye Indigo Pocket Sweatshirt - School Bus

Our crewnecks were the first garments to get treated to this special indigo dyed French terry. By your response and feedback, these special sweatshirts have struck a chord. Today we have a fresh take. You know the start, a heavy, all cotton French Terry. It's a big 14 ounces and has a nicely vintage feel to it. The use of indigo dyed yarns creates a star out of this garment. You simply can't get color this beautiful using any other type of dye. This version is an impossibly deep, inky dark indigo. We then overdye the garment in a bath of bold color. The color bath doesn't change the fundamental dark indigo character we love. Instead, on the surface it adds a subtle color cast. The loop back reveals the dip color in all its glory, as does the thread. With time, this sweatshirt will evolve and age like your best pair of raw denim. The color will soften around the hems first as it takes on a wear pattern unique to you. Wear this one well.

Construction details are classic and sturdy. Raglan sleeves create a great fit through the shoulders Double needle stitching is used to attach the heavy ribbed collar and ribbed "v" insert. Make no mistake, this inserted v shape is not all for show. It's a utilitarian feature that reinforces the collar by overlapping an additional layer of rib material. The added support will keep the collar from stretching out, even after years of wear. Vintage 3" ribbed cuffs and waistband contribute to the old-school appeal and supply even more durability. This is the right way to make a sweatshirt, without cutting any corners.
