It Is Not a Leak. It Is a Weep: Auto Mechanic Hoodie

A weep is dampness without a drop forming. A leak forms a drop. That distinction decides whether the repair gets authorized, and the same seal can be either one depending on who is looking at it.

Everybody else reads crying. They hear somebody insisting they are fine, and they are completely sure the shirt is about feelings.

Two sentences, two lines, hard full stops, no ornament. Filed as a warranty assessment with CLAIM NOT SUBMITTED beneath, which is how that argument usually ends.

What it is

• Unisex heavy blend hoodie, 8.0 oz/yd² (271 g/m²)
• 50% pre-shrunk cotton, 50% polyester, spun from air-jet yarn, which is what makes it feel soft and keeps it from pilling
• Double-lined hood with a matching drawcord, and a front pouch pocket
• 1x1 athletic rib-knit cuffs and waistband with spandex, and double-needle stitching at the collar, shoulders, armholes, cuffs and hem
• Quarter-turned body, cut that way so there is no crease down the middle
• Sizes S through 3XL
• Eleven colors. Four light ones printed in near black ink, seven dark ones printed in cream

How it is made

Custom printed in the USA. Every hoodie is printed here, one at a time, on a heavyweight fleece blank woven overseas.

Nothing is printed until you order it, so nothing sits in a warehouse and nothing gets thrown away.

Getting it to you

Free US shipping on orders $45 and up. Under that it is a flat $8.00. We make it after you order it, which takes 2 to 5 business days, and it then takes 3 to 4 business days to reach you from a US facility. Most orders arrive in 5 to 9 business days. You get a tracking number by email as soon as the label is created.

Care

Machine wash cold, inside out, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print.

The White colorway

White on this hoodie reads as a soft off-white rather than a bright white. That is the blended fabric doing it, and it is expected rather than a fault.
