Custom East German Trabant Car Hoodie
A computer-generated, black and gold, image of a customized East German Trabant automobile. The customized car's nickname, Trabasaurus rex, in an appropriate font, appears both on the vehicle door and below the image. The vehicle bears an Idaho license plate reading "TRABI REX" as it was customized by mythical Warsaw Pact Wonder Wheels (Classic Commie Cars) in Sandpoint. The logo of Warsaw Pact Wonder Wheels appears on the back. The Trabant was the people's car of East Germany "Trabant" means travelling companion and was inspired by the Russian word "sputnik" with the same meaning. Over 3 million Trabants were produced in the span of 30 years. The Trabant's engine was underpowered, inefficient and created much pollution. The much maligned Trabant, or Trabi as it was commonly known, has long been the butt of jokes, but has become trendy in recent years. Some have been imported to the United States. The roof, trunk lid,hood,fenders, and doors were constructed with Duroplast, a hard plastic akin to Bakelite, made of recycled materials: cotton waste from the Soviet Union and phenol resins from the East German dye industry. This made the Trabant the first car with a body made of recycled material and was partially responsible for the misconception that it was made of cardboard. Various crash test results showed it performed better than comparable contemporary Western hatchbacks.

Kids Pullover Hoodie, White, Youth XS
Zazzle made three attempts to get the logo scaled properly and failed three times. We just wanted to get the next size up (kids' large), and the logo applied is much too miniscule. They tried to fix this, printed it exactly the same way, and tried a third time, and it was again printed exactly the same way. Very frustrating. In the photo, the old, smaller hoodie is on the left, and two new ones with poorly-scaled logos are on the right.

Due to COVID-19 my grandkids made their own souvenir hoodies. But from the sound should have upped his size because we never know when we will have cold weather here. Overall really liked the hoodie. When I got them to them the printout was a big hit with them seeing that it was not a decal. Sorry I didn’t take pics to show how they came out.
