  • Cries in a Cool Way Crewneck Sweatshirt

    Cries in a Cool Way Crewneck Sweatshirt

    $60.00

    High-functioning. Medium-sad. Great style.

    This navy crewneck is cozy enough for wallowing, but polished enough to wear to therapy. Which—let’s be honest—we all probably should.

    Made from 80% ring-spun cotton and 20% polyester, this sweatshirt is soft from day one—like something you’ve loved forever. The garment-dyed fleece and 100% cotton face give it that vintage feel (without the mothball smell), and the relaxed fit makes it a faithful companion for long days and low reserves. With side-seamed construction, ribbed trim, and a forward-rolled shoulder, it’s not just comfy—it’s quietly resilient. OEKO-TEX Standard 100-certified. Washable, wearable, wonderfully you.

    Most of the items in our shop are made just for you—printed and produced when you place your order. Because of that, we’re not able to offer exchanges. But if something arrives damaged or there’s a mistake with your order, we want to make it right. Just reach out to our customer support team (merch@katebowler.com) with a photo of the issue, and we’ll take care of it from there.
