Design Description
The origins of what would eventually become STP are often tied to stories dating back to World War II. According to a long-circulated automotive legend, German engineers developed advanced lubricant additives to help military vehicles operate under extreme conditions, including the intense heat and abrasive environments of the North African campaign. American troops reportedly encountered German vehicles that seemed remarkably resistant to engine wear and overheating, leading to speculation that specialized oil treatments played a role in their reliability. While the exact path from these wartime technologies to postwar American products remains unclear, many German scientific and engineering innovations were studied and adopted by Allied nations after the war. Whether fact or folklore, these stories helped shape the mystique surrounding high-performance oil additives and the eventual rise of products such as STP, and for as long as racers have been racing, they've been running with the racer's choice!
Product Details
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature 'relic-ing' process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on super soft Gildan 18500 hoodies via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can't be accomplished with other printing methods. With a large front pouch pocket and drawstrings in a matching color, this hoodie is soft, stylish, and a perfect mid-weight for laying in cooler weather or keeping the chill off during summer nights at the beach.*Heather colors are 60/40 polyester/cotton. **Due to the nature of the printing process and different sizes of shirts offered, imprint position and scale may vary slightly from the product images, but we do our best to be as accurate as possible. Screen colors may vary due to differences in screens. Due to the natural nature of cotton, whites may appear off-white rather than bright white. Size Chart
Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our hoodies are made using premium, preshrunk cotton/poly blends, there can be some slight shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you're on the fence or just want to be able to layer over various shirts, we always suggest going up a size as hoodies are meant to be a little on the big side 😎
All sizes are provided in inches! Please note that variations in sizing of up to 1.5 inches are possible.
