Embroidered Australian Shepherd Halloween Sweatshirt: Witch Hat Aussie with Custom Name Sleeve

The Embroidered Australian Shepherd Halloween Sweatshirt carries a blue merle Australian Shepherd on the left chest, dressed for trick-or-treat in a black witch hat and holding an orange jack-o’-lantern candy bucket. The pup is stitched as a blue merle, with grey and black patches, a white blaze and chest, copper cheeks and legs, and a little pink tongue above the pumpkin bucket. Your dog’s name is stitched on the sleeve, so the sweatshirt says whose pup it is.

What is on the Australian Shepherd Halloween sweatshirt?

The Australian Shepherd Halloween sweatshirt has two embroidered details:

• The witch-hat Australian Shepherd: a blue merle Australian Shepherd in a black witch hat with a purple band and a gold buckle, holding a jack-o’-lantern bucket, about 3.5 inches wide on the left chest.
• Your dog’s name: stitched on the sleeve, just above the cuff, in the font and thread color you choose (white script is shown).

Both are 100% real high-density embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed, so the hat, the fur and the pumpkin have a raised texture you can feel.

Which sweatshirt color shows a Australian Shepherd best?

A blue merle Australian Shepherd shows best on a warm or deep colored sweatshirt. Its coat mixes grey, black, white and copper, so grey garments blur the merle, white garments swallow the blaze and chest, and black garments swallow the dark patches.

• Best contrast: Heather Deep Royal (shown), Maroon, Forest Green and Light Pink.
• Neutral option: Sand, where the merle and the white chest both still read.
• Skip: White and Black.

Which size should you choose?

Sizes run from S to 5XL on the crewneck sweatshirt, hoodie and quarter zip, and S to 4XL on the T-shirt. Personalized pieces are not eligible for size exchanges, so compare the measurements with a top you own in our size guide before you order.

How should you wash an embroidered sweatshirt?

To keep the embroidery bright and flat, follow 4 steps:

1. Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing.
2. Wash it cold on a gentle cycle.
3. Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
4. Iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.
