Hammer of the Saxons Sweatshirt — Thunor Anglo-Saxon God of Thunder
Long before the Norse sagas were written down, the Anglo-Saxons were already calling on Thunor — their thunder god, wielder of the hammer, guardian of the common folk against chaos and storm. Thursday itself bears his name. This heavyweight crewneck carries that ancient charge: the same bold Hammer of the Saxons design on Gildan 18000 fleece, built to hold its shape and settle warm and steady on the shoulders through seasons of wear.
Also available as a lighter-weight option — the same design in 100% cotton with the Hammer of the Saxons T-Shirt.
