Coat of Arms of Artigas Department - Sweatshirt Design
This sweatshirt features a striking design inspired by the official coat of arms of the Artigas Department in Uruguay. The centerpiece is a shield bearing the department's flag: three horizontal bands of blue-white-blue with a prominent diagonal red stripe, a visual tribute to the region and its namesake, the national hero José Gervasio Artigas.
Within the shield and surrounding it, a rich tapestry of symbolic elements unfolds. In the lower left, a cow stands proudly on a patch of grass, representing the vital role of cattle ranching and livestock in the department's economy. The upper right corner showcases symbols of the area's agricultural prowess: rice and sugarcane, key crops, accompanied by wavy lines that symbolize the Cuareim and Uruguay Rivers, which form the department's boundaries.
Above the central shield, a vigilant lapwing (tero), a bird native to the region, is set against a radiant Sun of May, a national emblem of Uruguay. The lapwing signifies watchfulness, while the Sun of May represents freedom and national identity. A scroll arching above the design prominently displays the name "ARTIGAS."
Encircling the shield are traditional indigenous tools and weapons, including a bow, machete, lance, hammer, and arrows. These elements acknowledge the historical presence of the Charrúa people in the region. This carefully curated composition is a visual celebration of Artigas' natural resources, economic foundations, rich cultural history, and its crucial relationship to Uruguay's national identity.

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.
