Sea & Solidarity Emblem
The Waves Emblem Hoodie is a quiet statement of care for everyone who crosses the Mediterranean. Two flowing lines stand for the sea; the rising dots echo people, lights on the horizon, and hope after a difficult journey. Simple, minimal embroidery – but with a clear direction: dignity for all.
The meaning behind the emblem
This emblem is part of the Sea & Solidarity capsule. It does not show flags, borders, or slogans – only waves and human forms. It is designed as a symbol you can take anywhere: to carry support for safe passage, rescue at sea, and human rights without needing many words.

Extended description: Gildan 18500
This hoodie uses the trusted Gildan 18500 base – a medium-heavy fleece that balances warmth, durability, and everyday wearability. The cotton-poly blend keeps the inside soft and smooth, while the outside holds embroidery details without puckering.
The classic cut works across many body types: not too slim, not oversized, easy to layer over tees or under a jacket. Ribbed knit cuffs and waistband help the hoodie keep its shape over time, even with frequent washing.
Gildan uses 100% ethically grown US cotton and is a proud member of the US Cotton Trust Protocol. All dyes are OEKO-TEX® certified for low environmental impact. Heather Sport colours (when used) are 60% polyester / 40% cotton.
Sustainability
- Blank hoodie made with ethically grown cotton and OEKO-TEX® certified dyes.
- On-demand production – each hoodie is embroidered when ordered to avoid excess stock.
- Durable construction designed for long-term wear, not fast fashion.
