ACAB Laurel Wreath Men's Hoodie, Black

Blackletter lettering inside a white laurel wreath

Old German characters and laurel: the four letters run across the chest in ornate blackletter, laurel branches grow upwards to the left and the right, and their stems cross at the bottom. The effect is close to a coat of arms or a winner's badge.

White on black, nothing further

The garment itself is a single black shade, cords and ribbing included, which leaves the white wreath clearly in front. The design is stocked in a baseball make with camo or red arms as well.

Sizes and where it fits in

Available S to 3XL. Something for cool evenings on the terrace, for the train to an away fixture, or simply for ordinary days when the weather turns.

Cut and cloth

The sleeves join raglan fashion, so there is no shoulder seam. Two black cords run through the edge of the hood, and at the front a belly pocket opens from the left and from the right. Two thirds of the blend, 65%, is cotton; polyester supplies 35%, one for the handle, the other for shape retention.

Blackletter rather than a fantasy face

The broken script belongs to the same family of forms as old newspaper mastheads and certificates. Together with the laurel the print reads more like an emblem than a slogan. Everything is printed in one flat white, with no shading and no outline.
