This is an absolute gem for vintage collectors, car enthusiasts, or anyone hunting for that perfect heavyweight boxy fit. This piece is an authentic slice of American automotive and trade union history. The embroidered chest graphic commemorates UAW Local 551 out of the historic Ford Chicago Assembly Plant. The text honors the 2005–2007 production era of the Ford Freestyle, Ford Five Hundred, and Mercury Montego, which were proudly built by the union workers at that exact facility. Produced on a blank by Starter from their premium PRO30 Heavyweight line, this hoodie is built like a tank and has that incredible slouchy retro drape. Size: Large - Boxy, oversized 90s/00s fit with dropped shoulders and a heavy hang. Condition* Excellent Vintage Condition Beautifully broken-in with a soft, thick feel. The zip works flawlessly, the drawstrings are intact, and the white embroidery is crisp with zero unravelling. *May have slight discolouring on the front, barely noticeable* Colours Deep Burgundy / Maroon with a classic pale pink embroidered chest graphic and the Starter logo on the hood. Material Thick, ultra-dense Heavyweight Cotton/Polyester Blend with a cozy brushed fleece interior. This has the premium weight and durability that modern hoodies just can't replicate. The History: This is a true piece of American workwear. It wasn't bought in a retail store; it was custom-made for the Ford factory union workers in Chicago.
