Your Ring Is in the Trap: Plumber Hoodie

The P trap holds a plug of water that blocks sewer gas, and it also catches everything small that goes down a lavatory drain. A wedding ring that went down the sink is almost always sitting in the bend.

Out of context it sounds ominous. A threat, a betrayal, a line from a film, and the word trap does all of that on its own. What it actually describes is the most gratitude a plumber gets in a year: pulling the trap and handing the ring back.

Filed as a work order note with LAVATORY DRAIN REASSEMBLED underneath, because that is the other half of the job. It is one of the few in this set a customer would buy.

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.
