If you love meaningful custom embroidered sweatshirts, this one keeps the moment personal, classic, and gift-ready.

Dad Est 2026 Pocket Badge Design Details

The Dad Est. 2026 design is machine embroidered as a pocket-style chest badge on a Forest Green sweatshirt, using five thread colors: vintage cream, faded orange, warm brown, forest green, and black. The artwork measures approximately 20cm x 18cm and features a tiny mustache above bold DAD lettering, with EST. 2026 tucked beneath and two small stars framing the year. The warm retro palette gives this mens embroidered sweatshirt a dadcore look that feels nostalgic, not novelty. For an extra personal detail, you can add a child’s name or short quote embroidered on the sleeve for +$5, creating a subtle keepsake without crowding the front badge.
