How to measure
- Body: Lay flat. Measure from the highest point of the shoulder straight down to the bottom hem.
- Chest: Lay flat. Measure straight across one inch below the armhole, edge to edge. Double for full chest circumference.
- Sleeve: Lay flat. Measure from the center back of the neck, across the shoulder, down to the end of the cuff.
Cut as a relaxed unisex shell. The half-zip pullover construction layers easily over a hoodie — if you plan to wear over heavier layers, size up.

Every Weathered Sailor piece is thoughtfully crafted using premium materials and intentional construction. With proper care, your garments will soften, age, and wear beautifully over time—just as they were designed to.
Washing
-
Turn garments inside out before washing
-
Machine wash cold with like colors
-
Use gentle or normal cycle
-
Avoid bleach and harsh detergents
Cold water helps preserve fabric integrity, color depth, and any embroidery or printed details.
Drying
-
Lay flat to dry when possible (recommended)
-
Or tumble dry low heat
-
Remove promptly to minimize wrinkles
High heat can cause shrinkage and unnecessary wear—low and slow is always better.
Ironing & Heat
-
Do not iron directly on prints, embroidery, or patches
-
If needed, iron inside out on low heat
-
Never apply direct heat to decorative elements
Special Notes
-
Some garments may feature organic cotton, heavyweight fleece, or specialty finishes. These materials are intentionally designed to develop character over time.
-
Minor variations in texture or fading are part of the garment’s natural journey—not defects.
-
Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce softness over time and impact performance of natural fibers.
Storage
-
Fold heavier garments instead of hanging to maintain shape
-
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
All Weathered Sailor pieces are made to order.
We don't hold inventory. Every hoodie, tee, hat, and accessory is produced specifically for you after you place your order. This is a deliberate choice — not a limitation.
Why Made to Order
Mass production means overproduction. Excess inventory that gets discounted, destroyed, or sits in a warehouse. We chose a different model from the start — one that only creates what's actually needed. This keeps our environmental footprint low, maintains consistent quality, and lets us operate as a lean brand that puts resources toward what matters: the product and the mission.
Production & Shipping Timeline
- Production: approximately 5 business days after your order is placed
- Shipping: approximately 5 business days after your order leaves our production partner
- Total estimated time: 10 business days from order to delivery
Timelines may vary slightly during peak periods or holidays. If anything changes with your order, we'll keep you informed.
Tracking
Tracking information is sent to your email as soon as your order ships. If you don't receive it, check your spam folder or email us at aaron@theweatheredsailor.com.
Quality
Made to order also means made with intention. Each piece goes through our production partner's quality process before it ships. We use premium heavyweight fabrics, quality printing and embroidery, and construction built to last. Because we're not racing to fill bulk orders, we can maintain standards that mass production makes difficult.
If your order arrives with any issue — damage, defect, wrong item — email us at aaron@theweatheredsailor.com within 14 days of delivery and we'll make it right.
