Upload 5 family photos, add your family name and year for a custom Christmas bootleg sweatshirt or hoodie. 280 GSM fleece, 11 colors, XS-5XL, crewneck or hooded.
Turn five of your own family photos into a personalized Christmas bootleg sweatshirt or hoodie with your family name across the chest and your year at the bottom. We rebuild that oversized 90s bootleg tour look — cracked distressed lettering, a cut-out photo collage, airbrushed flames, snowflake splatters and pine branch accents — around your favorite people and the most wonderful time of the year. Upload 5 photos, type your family name and your year, and choose crewneck sweatshirt or pullover hoodie in 11 colors, XS–5XL. Printed on 280 GSM heavyweight cotton fleece so it wears like a real vintage piece, not a novelty print.

This custom Christmas family sweatshirt runs XS through 5XL in a true unisex cut, and the crewneck and hoodie share the same measurements — handy when the whole family wants a matching set. For the authentic baggy bootleg silhouette, order one size up. Between two sizes? Size up — the 280 GSM fleece drapes better with a little room. Full shoulder, chest, sleeve and length measurements plus height and weight guidance are in the size chart image above.
What size should I choose?
Sizes run XS–5XL in unisex fit, and Crewneck and Hoodie use identical measurements. Pick your normal size for a regular fit, or go one size up for the oversized 90s bootleg look. The size chart image lists shoulder, half-chest, sleeve and body length in cm and inches along with recommended height and weight.
What is this sweatshirt made of, and is the hoodie the same fabric?
Both styles are 80% cotton / 20% polyester fleece at 280 GSM — a heavyweight, brushed-inside fabric that is warm without feeling stiff. The Hoodie adds a double-layer hood with drawstrings, a kangaroo pocket and ribbed side panels. Everything is pre-shrunk with double-needle seams and a tagless collar.
What kind of photos work best, and what am I allowed to upload?
Use 5 clear, well-lit portrait photos: one strong group shot for the large center spot, then four more — candid holiday moments, individual portraits, different occasions. Blurry, very dark, backlit shots or tiny distant group photos won't print well — if one won't work we email you before printing so you can swap it. Upload your own family photos only. We cannot print copyrighted material such as stock photos, celebrity images, brand logos or professional studio photos you do not own the rights to. This is an original bootleg-style design, not a replica of any existing product.
How long does my custom sweatshirt take to ship?
Every piece is made to order. Our team builds your collage first, then prints and ships within 5–10 business days. Because each order is individually designed, ordering early for Christmas, reunions and birthdays is strongly recommended — please order by early December to guarantee delivery before the holiday.
How do I wash it so the photo print lasts?
Machine wash cold, inside out, and tumble dry low. Do not bleach and do not iron directly on the print. Treated this way the design resists fading for 50+ washes and the fleece keeps its loft instead of matting down.
What exactly do I customise on this Christmas family sweatshirt?
Three things: the 5 family photos, your family name and your year. The name prints as big distressed stacked lettering across the chest with a hand-written script overlay, and the year prints in distressed numbers at the bottom — most families use a wedding year, an established year or the year a child was born. Names up to about 12 characters keep the boldest look; longer names still print, just slightly narrower. The year takes 4 digits.

| Wash durability | Resists fading for 50+ washes | Gradual fading is common over time |
| Best suited for | Photo collages and distressed vintage artwork | Simple flat graphics on light cotton |
