Boston summers mean long, bright days, and for many, a shift in focus toward campus life. Even as the heat lingers outside, the truth is, a quality, comfortable sweatshirt becomes an undeniable essential once you step indoors, especially in air-conditioned dorms or for those late-night gaming sessions. This isn't about chasing trends; it's about investing in pieces that feel good and hold up, built from materials we can trace.
The Retro Arcade Skeleton: More Than Just a Graphic
When we designed the Retro Arcade Skeleton, we weren't just thinking about a graphic. We were thinking about the feel of the fabric against your skin, the way it moves, and how it performs. It’s a mid-weight blend of 80% GOTS Certified Organic Cotton and 20% Recycled Polyester, certified by OCS and GRS. This isn’t a summer-day layer, but it is built for comfort in those cooler, controlled environments, perfect for dorms or gaming setups where the AC is always blasting. And it’s PETA-Approved Vegan, ensuring a garment free from animal-derived materials.
We build our apparel to last longer, wear better, and tell a story worth sharing. That starts with verified materials, every time.
Curated for Enduring Style and Comfort
Our commitment to verified materials means you get a garment with integrity. This isn't fast fashion built to fall apart after a few washes. It’s about creating pieces for your rotation that stand the test of time, from the fabric itself to the printing process.

The GOTS Certified Material Truth
The Retro Arcade Skeleton Organic Sweatshirt is crafted from a blend of 80% GOTS Certified Organic Cotton and 20% Recycled Polyester. This fabric blend is also OCS (Organic Content Standard) certified, and the recycled polyester component is GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified. Our supplier, Stanley/Stella, is a Fair Wear Foundation member, ensuring ethical labor practices through third-party factory audits. The mid-weight 280 GSM (8.3 oz/yd²) fabric offers durable comfort, with the understanding that quality organic cotton requires a break-in period for optimal softness.
