This design is as close a replica as I can create to Robert Smith's original "cat sweater" as seen in photo shoots of The Cure in 1984. How many of us coveted that sweatshirt/sweater/jumper? The original he wears looks to be hand-painted, and I've done my best to get that feeling while keeping the graphics crisp, clean and easy to print. I chose slightly tinted colors so as to give it a vintage, not-brand-new feeling.
Note: Printing on all sides of a shirt is a complex process. Panels are cut by hand and sewn together after printing. Alignment of patterns on seams may differ from what you see in the preview. Colors may appear different from what you see on your monitor. These garments ship directly from the printer, and their policy is no returns/no refunds. If you're not satisfied with the final product, please let me know and we'll figure something out. Let's get happy.

Curethreads are designed by Kate. Her graphics are sent electronically to print shops who print orders on demand, and ship them directly to your door. This is called “drop shipping.” Most of these print companies are located in the USA. Select items (primarily shirts and mugs) can be printed in locations in the UK, EU, Canada, China, and Australia. This is why you’ll see items marked as “EU ITEM ONLY” or categorized in the EU Shop section. When you order an item printed within your own country or territory, you avoid paying a premium for international shipping expenses, while reducing your carbon footprint.
In most cases, the answer is yes. However, international shipping may cost an additional $10-$30 USD PER ITEM. Import/export taxes will automatically be added to US items at checkout. In some cases you may also be required to pay duties to your local post office when the package arrives. Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter whether the item is a “gift” or not. If you want to send it as a gift, but don’t want the recipient to have to pay duties, have the item delivered to yourself.
For best results, use my home-tested method: Treat Curethreads like lingerie. 🖤
1. Prep: Spot clean stains with mild detergent and cold water.
2. Turn all items inside-out before laundering, including socks!
3. Sort: Wash similar fabrics & colors together to prevent fading, friction, fuzzies, and pilling. I use mesh bags.
4. Lesson learned: DO NOT WASH Curethreads with JEANS.
5. Hand wash or machine wash on Delicates or Gentle cycle with cold water.
6. Use a mild laundry detergent. NEVER USE bleach, vinegar, or fabric softener. These weaken the bond of the fabric + ink.
7. Hang or lay flat to dry (including socks!)
8. Roll rather than fold.
All prints were created with a hot printing press, so AVOID HOT WATER to retain color & contrast.

Printidee ist genial 👍. Leider sind die Katzen sehr blass von der Farbe... Insgesamt sehen die Farben nicht kräftig aus. Der Schnitt ist ok, am Hals etwas eng, die Arme/Schultern ebenso leider etwas strange geschnitten... Muss ich leider anpassen. Versand ging an Freunde in den Staaten und war schnell und ohne Probleme. Ergänzung 08.06.2022. Zunächst kam eine nette Email... auf meine Antwort kam keine Reaktion, auf meine Erinnerung auch nichts. Sieht so aus, dass ich die Kosten für die Änderungen selber tragen muss. Schade, schlechter Service... ignorieren geht gar nicht!!!

Amazing seller! Can say enough about wonderful Kate was to work with. I had an issue with the print and the collar of a pullover. Kate went out of her way to make sure everything was corrected. Her communication and diligence was outstanding. Absolutely one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had. Cheer Kate!
