The Dallas premium crewneck, for the town that flies a red Pegasus over its skyline. A 9.9 oz cotton-rich sweatshirt with a smooth face and the Dallas vintage retro logo on the chest in black.

This is the softer, heavier of our two Dallas crewnecks, the one that becomes the three-days-a-week sweatshirt from October on. Smooth face, rich print, no scratchy tag. If you want the sweatshirt that feels like a favorite on day one, this is it; order now for cold weather and holiday giving.

The soft cotton crewneck you reach for first. A medium-heavy 9.9 oz blend of 80% cotton and 20% polyester feels substantial without weighing you down, with a true-to-size unisex fit. Ribbed-knit cuffs and collar, reinforced side seams, and twill neck tape keep it crisp through the wash, the smooth cotton-rich surface shows our retro artwork in rich detail, and a tear-away label means all-day comfort with no scratchy tag. Machine washable, ethically printed on demand.

Dallas began in 1841 as John Neely Bryan’s trading post at the best ford on the Trinity River, on the near-treeless Blackland Prairie of North Texas, with no harbor and no obvious reason to grow. Surveyed in 1844, named county seat in 1846 and chartered in 1856, it willed itself into a city when the railroads arrived in 1872–73 and cotton, banking and commerce followed.

The twentieth century gave the city its icons: Neiman Marcus in 1907, the State Fair at Fair Park from 1886 and the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition that left the world’s largest collection of Art Deco exposition buildings, the neon Pegasus over the 1922 Magnolia Building in 1934, and Reunion Tower’s lit-up ball in 1978. That mix of frontier ford and glittering skyline is the Big D confidence the mark on this piece is drawn from.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Apparel: wash cold, inside out, with like colors; no bleach; tumble dry low or hang dry. Embroidered pieces: iron inside out to protect the stitching. Caps: spot clean. Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

Who makes this?

Here is a small Dallas mystery: nobody is entirely sure who the city is named for. The usual answer is George Mifflin Dallas, the U.S. vice president of the 1840s, and it may well be him — but John Neely Bryan, who did the naming, never pinned it down, and historians have floated a half-dozen other Dallases over the years. The city has worn the uncertainty lightly. Long ago Dallasites shortened the whole question to two letters that settle nothing and say everything: Big D.

The land shaped the city as much as the people did. Dallas sits on the Trinity River — three forks of it — in gently rolling, near-treeless prairie, with no natural advantage but the crossing itself; everything else was made by rail and nerve. Early attempts to make the silty Trinity a navigable river failed, so Dallas bet on the railroads instead and won. White Rock Lake and the Great Trinity Forest give the city its green, and the wide prairie light gives the neon signs and glass towers room to show off. It is a city built on ambition rather than geography, and it has never pretended otherwise.

Why People Visit Dallas

Dallas rewards visitors who like a city with confidence: a skyline you can read like a history book, a world-class arts district, museums of real weight, and food worth crossing town for. Add the flying red Pegasus, the Art Deco of Fair Park, and Texas hospitality scaled up, and Big D makes a strong case for itself.
