What is the I'm The Reason Dad Is Like This sweatshirt?

It is a crewneck sweatshirt from Graphic Tees Co. showing a laughing grandpa in an armchair, lettered I'M THE REASON DAD IS LIKE THIS. It is a Gildan 18000 in 8 oz cotton-poly fleece, with no hood and no pockets, so it works as an easy layer.

How does the crewneck sweatshirt fit?

This Graphic Tees Co. crewneck is a classic unisex fit in sizes S through 3XL with a ribbed collar, cuffs and waistband. Order your usual size for a regular fit or size up for a roomier layer over a tee. If the size is off, the first exchange is free.

How warm is it and how do I wash it?

The sweatshirt is 50% cotton and 50% polyester fleece at 8 oz, a solid layer for a fall football game or a chilly porch. Wash it inside out in cold water and tumble dry low. That keeps the cream, mustard and navy inks from fading and the fleece soft.

Is it a good gift for Papa from the grandkids?

Yes. It suits the papa who tells the same joke twice and loves it, and it works as a Christmas or birthday gift from the grandkids, or from Dad owning the joke. From Graphic Tees Co. it costs $34.99 in Sand and Navy, and the free size exchange makes it safe to give.

Can I get it by Christmas?

Order by about December 8 and your Graphic Tees Co. papa sweatshirt should arrive before Christmas. Each sweatshirt is printed the day you order it, so ship times vary a little by location. Orders over $45 ship free, and the free size exchange covers a wrong guess.

How do I wash this sweatshirt?

Inside out, cold water, gentle cycle. Skip bleach and fabric softener, then hang dry or tumble dry low. Never iron directly on the print.

The story+

I'm the reason Dad is like this: this papa sweatshirt is for the grandpa who takes full credit for every groan at the holiday table, worn to birthday breakfasts, ball games and Sunday dinners.

The print is a 1950s cartoon scene: a white-haired man with a neat white mustache, round glasses, a mustard cardigan and blue slacks, laughing in a red overstuffed armchair with one house slipper dangling from his foot. I'M THE REASON runs above and DAD IS LIKE THIS. below in heavy slab capitals at full width: cream and mustard on Navy, navy and brick red on Sand.

Give it to the grandpa who has never told a joke only once. Original art, made for Graphic Tees Co. and printed the day you order it.
