Description

The ZeitStitch Honest List “An Attempt Was Made” Vintage-Wash Hoodie salutes the season with humor and heart. On the back, bold chalk-style lettering lays out Santa’s famous choices—NAUGHTY and NICE—before landing the real verdict: a big check beside AN ATTEMPT WAS MADE. A red Santa cap perched on the top box adds a hit of cheer, while the front keeps things subtle with a tiny hat micro-graphic so the joke lands when you turn around.

Design idea: celebrate effort over perfection. December is full of best intentions, tangled lights, and late-night wrapping—so we built a piece that feels easy from day one. The garment wash creates a lived-in patina and soft hand, like a hoodie you’ve already broken in. Mid-weight cotton-blend fleece is plush inside and smooth outside; the roomy hood, kangaroo pocket, and rib cuffs/hem deliver warmth without bulk. A relaxed, drop-shoulder cut layers comfortably over tees, thermals, or flannel, and holds its shape through the rush of the season.

Palette keeps styling effortless while letting the print pop: Charcoal Black for crisp contrast, Slate Grey for studio-fade vibes, Army Green for outdoorsy calm, and Oat for a light winter read. Throw it on with denim and sneakers for coffee runs, or pair with cargoes and beanie for tree-lot scouting. It’s equally at home on airport days (instant icebreaker), office gift exchanges, market strolls with hot chocolate, or après-ski when the playlist goes nostalgic.

This is holiday spirit with a wink—honest, good-natured, and seriously comfortable. If your year looked like most people’s—busy, messy, but heartfelt—this hoodie tells the truth in the best way: you tried, you showed up, and you’re ready for more.
