Pitbull Christmas Lights Sweatshirt: Embroidered Pit Bull in a Play Bow with Lights and Snowflakes

This pitbull Christmas lights sweatshirt catches a pit bull in the middle of a game: a solid black silhouette in a play bow, wearing a red scarf and tugging a string of colored lights under falling snowflakes. It is a ready-made design, stitched to order in real embroidery.

What is on the pitbull Christmas lights sweatshirt?

The scene runs across the middle of the chest, wider than it is tall.

• The dog: a black pit bull silhouette with its front legs stretched flat, chest low, rear end up and tail raised.
• The scarf: red knit, wrapped around the neck with the ends hanging down.
• The lights: a cord gripped in the mouth, with yellow, red and green bulbs trailing over the front paws.
• The snow: white snowflakes arched above the dog’s head and back.

What is a play bow, and why is the pit bull doing one?

A play bow is the pose dogs use to invite a game: front end down, back end up, tail ready to go. This pit bull has found its toy in the Christmas lights and is daring you to come and take them back. Pit bulls are known for strong, muscular builds and a big, goofy love of people, and the play bow shows off the goofy side. The silhouette style keeps the outline bold and simple, so the red scarf and the colored bulbs pop against the black. That is the idea behind this pitbull play bow sweatshirt: a powerful dog acting like a puppy because it is Christmas.

Which color should you choose?

Choose the sweatshirt you want in the options above, then a color, and the photos switch to match. The black silhouette shows its full shape on light and mid-tone fabrics, where the scarf and bulbs stand out as well. On the darkest colors the dog turns into a soft, tone-on-tone shape, and the red scarf, colored lights and white snowflakes carry the design.

Who is the pit bull Christmas lights crewneck for?

It suits a pitbull mom or dad, a rescue volunteer or foster, or a friend who just adopted a bully breed. With no words in the design, this pit bull Christmas lights crewneck works for tree trimming, holiday parties and Christmas morning, and it stays easy to wear into January. The design comes as a crewneck sweatshirt only, with no hoodie or T-shirt version. More ideas are in our dog Christmas sweatshirts and dog lover gifts.

Can you add a name to the sleeve?

Yes. Add your dog’s name or initials on one sleeve, with an optional icon, font and thread color. White thread is preselected for the darker colors; for light colors, pick Black or another dark thread.

Ordering, sizing and care

Once you order, we embroider the sweatshirt and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. You will see a free design proof by email first, and edits are unlimited. To receive it by Christmas Day, order by December 8 in the U.S. or by November 23 outside the U.S. Size exchanges are not possible on made-to-order pieces, so measure against the size guide on this page. Wash it inside out in cold water and avoid ironing the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Is the pitbull printed or embroidered?

Embroidered. The dog, the scarf, the cord, every bulb and the snowflakes are stitched in thread, so the design has a raised texture and will not crack or peel.

Can the dog look like my own pit bull?

This silhouette is a ready-made design, stitched as shown. To embroider your own dog from a photo, choose the custom dog Christmas sweatshirt, which also comes as a T-shirt.

Are there other pitbull designs?

Yes. Three pitbulls in Santa hats and scarves are on our pitbull Santa hat sweatshirt, and more are in our pitbull sweatshirts.
