At long last, we now have all sizes of our Lost Art Press USA-made sweatshirts in stock and ready to ship. Yes, there is still time to order one for Christmas – John is fulfilling these personally to make sure they get out.
That’s the good news. The bad news is that our current supplier has become unreliable. Why? We don’t know. But we know we can’t wait on them anymore.
So once this batch of sweatshirts is done we will be switching to a different supplier of USA-made sweatshirts: Royal Apparel of New York. These sweatshirts are a bit heavier, have a metal zipper and cost more. So prices will go up once this current batch is sold out, though I don’t know what the increase will be yet.
So if you want an USA-made Lost Art Press sweatshirt at $45 to $46, act now.

Yeah, but when is Pete Galberts book coming out? Jim >
Hi Chris,
I got one of the first sweatshirts and I really like the print. I think the sweatshirt itself, however, is cheap, thin and not worthy of your awesomeness. I am a bit of a sweatshirt connoisseur. This one is a poor example. Disappointed.
On the other hand I love your business and I want it to flourish so I don’t feel too bad about the money spent.
Very respectfully, Dave Rivers
I have one of the American Apparel california fleece versions and I have been wearing it for weeks now. It’s the perfect weight to layer in this crazy New England transitional weather. I couldn’t be happier.
I take that back, I would be happier with a Black LAP T SHIRT with the same design… and a pony!
Niels,
We are working on that shirt. Promise. You are on your own pony-wise.
Chris you are secretly work on the history of Trojan Horse? Or in the case of today smaller castles Trojan Pony including historically correct blacksmith fittings? I was looking for to the mad rush for those kinds of nails.
Unicorn loves you!
Will the new supplier be able to offer them in Fat Guy sizes? XXXL and XXXXL? Here’s hoping.
How long would you guess it’ll be before the new sweatshirts comes in? (While I am a fan of many American Apparel garments, their hoodies are bleh.)
We will announce it when the change occurs – probably two weeks or so.
Having it in a heavier fabric is a good idea. I bought one of the first versions and women have been running after me yelling your name Chris and trying to rip it off me. I am both elated and terrified
