Four Black Labs Christmas Sweatshirt: Embroidered Lab Silhouettes in Scarves, Hats and Stars

This four black labs Christmas sweatshirt lines up four Labradors across the chest, each stitched as a solid black silhouette and each dressed for the holidays in its own way. From left to right: a lab lying down with a red bow at its neck, a lab sitting tall in a red and white candy-cane striped scarf, a lab in a play bow with its tail up and a red Santa hat on its head, and a lab sitting and howling in a green and red elf hat with gold bells and a red scarf. Two small gold stars float above the row. It is a ready-made design: choose the color and size, add a name or icon on the sleeve if you like, and we stitch it to order. Every stitch is 100% real embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed.

What is on the four black labs Christmas sweatshirt?

The four black labs Christmas sweatshirt has 2 parts:

• The four labs: four black Labrador silhouettes in a bow, a candy-cane scarf, a Santa hat and an elf hat, with two gold stars above them, across the chest.
• The sleeve (optional): a name, initials or short word and an icon from the font and icon chart, in the font and thread color you choose, on the left or right sleeve.

Which color should you choose?

Pick a color in the options above and the photos switch to it, so you can see the design on that color before you order.

The black silhouettes stand out most on light and mid-tone colors, where every pose, the striped scarf and the gold stars read clearly. On the darkest colors the black dogs sit close to the fabric, so the red, green and gold accents carry the design. On a red sweatshirt the bow and the red scarves blend in a little, while the stars, the white stripes and the elf hat stay bright.

How do you order your sweatshirt?

To order your sweatshirt, follow 4 steps:

• Choose the sweatshirt color and size in the options above.
• Choose whether to add sleeve embroidery.
• If you add it, type the name or initials, then pick the icon, font, thread color and sleeve.
• Add it to your cart; we email a free design proof before we stitch.

How do you add a name or icon on the sleeve?

Sleeve embroidery is optional and goes on one sleeve. Type a short name or your initials, such as your lab’s name, and pick an icon, a font and a thread color from the charts in the photos, or leave the icon off. White thread reads best on the darker colors; pick Black or another dark thread for the light colors.

Is it a black lab silhouette Christmas sweatshirt for a home with several labs?

Yes. Four poses in one row make this black lab silhouette Christmas sweatshirt a natural pick for a family with more than one lab, or for anyone who loves how a lab can lounge, sit, play and howl all in one afternoon. The design has no words on it, and the gold stars give it a quiet holiday glow you can wear all season.

Is it a good gift for a black lab lover?

Yes. It suits a lab mom or lab dad, a breeder or a trainer, a hunter with a retriever, or a friend who just brought home a black lab puppy. Add the dog’s name on the sleeve to make it personal, and find more ideas in our dog Christmas sweatshirts and dog lover gifts.

Is there a hoodie or T-shirt version?

No. This design comes only on the crewneck sweatshirt, so the color and size options above are all for that sweatshirt.

What happens after you order?

We email you a free digital design proof, and you can ask for unlimited edits. Once you approve it, we embroider your sweatshirt to order and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. For delivery by Christmas, order by December 8 in the U.S. or by November 23 outside the U.S.

Which size should you choose?

Each piece is made to order, so it is not eligible for size exchanges. Open the size guide on this page and compare the measurements with a top you already own before you order; we suggest sizing up if you are between sizes.

How should you wash an embroidered sweatshirt?

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

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

Frequently asked questions

Are the labs printed or embroidered?

They are embroidered. The four labs, the bow, the scarves, the hats and the stars are stitched in thread, so the design has a raised texture you can feel and will not crack or peel like a print.

Can the labs look like my own dogs?

These labs are ready-made silhouettes. To stitch your own dogs from a photo in Santa hats or antlers, choose the custom dog Christmas sweatshirt.

Are there other black lab Christmas designs?

Yes. A single lab in a Santa hat beside a gift box is on our black lab Christmas sweatshirt, more labs are in our Labrador sweatshirts, and more breeds dressed for the holidays are in our embroidered Christmas sweatshirts.
