106th Air Refueling Squadron Crewneck Sweatshirt - Design Overview
This crewneck sweatshirt proudly showcases a design centered on the 106th Air Refueling Squadron (ARS) of the U.S. Air Force. The artwork is carefully crafted to embody the squadron's critical role in aerial operations and its rich history.
Design Elements
The design prominently features the unit's designation: "106th ARS." This serves as a direct identifier, allowing wearers to immediately express their connection to or support of the squadron.
Visuals likely incorporate elements symbolic of air refueling. This may include silhouettes of a KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft, the squadron's primary aircraft, in mid-air refueling operations. Representations of fighter jets or other aircraft being refueled might also be included to highlight the squadron's mission support role.
Symbolism and Meaning
The design’s color palette and styling may lean towards a military aesthetic. Color choices could include shades of blue, gray, and possibly a touch of red or gold to signify heritage and honor. The overall look seeks to convey strength, precision, and the vital strategic importance of air refueling.
The central imagery, with the KC-135 and refueling operation, symbolizes the 106th ARS's ability to extend the reach of the U.S. and allied air power, supporting a wide range of missions across the globe. The design is a representation of the squadron's commitment to strategic flexibility and global reach.
Unisex Heavy-Blend Crewneck Sweatshirt
A clean, dependable crewneck engineered for everyday wear. The cotton/poly blend keeps prints bright and the fit approachable — neither too boxy nor too snug. It's the sort of sweatshirt you reach for when comfort matters.
Product Highlights
Built from a balanced cotton and polyester mix, this crewneck gives you the soft hand of cotton with the color-keeping and shape retention polyester offers. That fabric combo helps printed artwork look crisp and vibrant, wash after wash.
Practical construction details — a ribbed knit collar that holds its shape and the absence of side seams — remove common annoyances so the sweatshirt feels smooth and lasting during everyday use.
- Cotton/poly blend for softness, durability, and color retention
- Ribbed knit collar to prevent stretching and keep a neat neckline
- No side seams for a cleaner feel against the skin
- Midweight construction — warm without bulk
- Made to hold print detail and color after repeated washing
Fit & Style Notes
The cut is unisex and intended to be versatile — choose your normal size for a classic fit or size up if you prefer a relaxed, contemporary silhouette. The length and sleeve proportions are tuned for easy layering.
Style it with high-waist jeans for a clean look, throw on a lightweight coat for chilly commutes, or match with joggers for a comfortable set. Works well with bold prints or minimalist branding.
