George Washington's Christmas Day Crossing of the Delaware Crewneck sweatshirt — The Christmas sweatshirt for history nerds
Our original design celebrating George Washington's crossing of the Delaware the night of December 25 and his surprise attack on Hessian forces in Trenton, New Jersey the following morning.
This is the perfect gift for the history nerds and history lovers on your Christmas list! They will immediately get the reference and take pride in answering the inevitable questions from those who aren't so well-versed in history.
On the front, the bag of "gifts" George Washington is delivering to Trenton. (The back is blank.)

This is a lightweight sweatshirt, and much lighter than the hooded sweatshirt. Sizes: S-5X. 7.8 oz. Main image is on the front; the back is blank. See size chart
This design is also available on a made in America t-shirt, made in America long-sleeved shirt, and a hooded pullover sweatshirt.

Timing
We try to ship orders within three business days of receiving them. This applies to in-stock items. Framed items or items requiring personalization may take up to two weeks longer. If there is an extended delay, it will be noted on the product page.
We close for a week over Independence Day and Christmas. A notice will appear at the top of every page of the site in advance of this closure.
We ship most orders via USPS, so if the post office is closed, we won't be shipping orders that day.
If you need to receive your order by a certain date, such as to give as a gift or have for a trip, we recommend ordering at least two weeks in advance, especially if you are using USPS shipping.
If you're looking for reliable, on-time deliveries, we strongly suggest upgrading to "UPS 3 Business Day Select Shipping."

- When fulfillment takes longer, such as around the Christmas holidays, we'll put up an announcement in the site and will list recommended shipping deadlines below.
- If an item is out of stock, we will contact you.
- If one of your items is an advance order, that will be noted on the product page along with an estimate of when it will ship. If that estimated date changes, the product page will be updated.

Great addition to my Christmas apparel
I absolutely loved my sweatshirt and wore it on Christmas Day! I’m 5’9” and got the 2x bc I love baggie sweatshirts. It was long enough for me! Super soft, excellent quality, and vivid printing. Well done! Incredibly brilliant design, and I love to be able to tell the story of the Crossing to those who asked about its meaning. God bless you all!
I have been eyeing this sweatshirt for a long time. I ordered it recently and got it in time for Christmas. My Brother who is a history teacher would love it too and I got a size that would fit him or I can keep it and it would be oversized for me and I could put a turtleneck under it. It is so pretty too! I can't decide but it is a great shirt!! Thank you!!
I teach middle school history, and I am so excited to wear this during the month of December! It will also make an appearance at our family Christmas Eve party. The crewneck is soft and fits very well. I am 5'6", 160 and I can wear both M and L. I wanted it to be more fitted, so I am happy that I ordered the M. Not too small, perfect fit.
This is my first and only Christmas sweater (well, sweatshirt)! I have been wearing it all week. I enjoy explaining it to people—though it would certainly be better if I didn’t HAVE to explain. It is also very soft.
Great quality! Super comfy and fit perfectly! I will definitely be purchasing from @thehistorylist again.
Perfect weight, quality print, and fits as expected.
