Escudo de Guipúzcoa 1466-1979 (Spain) Hoodie Design
Embrace the history and heritage of Gipuzkoa with this striking hoodie design featuring the original Escudo de Guipúzcoa (Coat of Arms) used from 1466 to 1979.
Heraldic Composition
The design is a faithful representation of the historical coat of arms, a powerful emblem of identity and autonomy. The artwork is divided into three distinct sections, each rich in symbolic meaning.
Dexter Chief: Royal Presence
In the upper left quadrant, a crowned king sits regally upon a throne. This represents the historical connection of Gipuzkoa to the monarchy, with possible allusions to figures such as Alfonso VIII of Castile or Henry IV, figures historically associated with the region.
Sinister Chief: Victory in Battle
The upper right section showcases twelve golden cannons arranged on a vibrant red field. This commemorates a pivotal moment in Gipuzkoan history: the capture of twelve French cannons by Gipuzkoan forces during the Battle of Velate in 1512. It serves as a visual testament to the region's strength and military prowess.
Lower Section: Landscape and Legacy
The lower section of the coat of arms depicts three yew trees (Taxus baccata) set against a backdrop of blue waves. The yew trees symbolize the lush, forested landscapes characteristic of Gipuzkoa, while the blue waves represent the region's coastal identity and its close connection to the sea. The inclusion of these elements highlights the geographic features that define Gipuzkoa.
Unisex Heavy-Blend Hoodie

Product Highlights
Made from a thick cotton/polyester blend, this hoodie feels plush the moment you put it on. The fabric traps warmth without feeling bulky, and the soft brushed interior keeps it gentle against the skin — perfect for chilly mornings, late-night walks, or working from the couch.
Practical details matter: the spacious kangaroo pocket gives your hands a place to warm up and keeps small essentials close, while a matching drawstring adds a refined touch that won't clash with print or embroidery. Built with reinforced seams and a balanced weight, it wears like your favorite sweatshirt from week one.
