Collection: Palestine Hoodies

Every Palestine hoodie here carries a story: the map of historic Palestine, the olive branch, the key of return, the watermelon, Handala, the hanoon poppy and the oranges of Yafa. Each one is embroidered or printed to order just for you, in unisex sizes, and ships from San Jose to almost anywhere in the world.

M.E. Olives means Middle East Olives. We chose the olive because it stands for the resistance and resilience of Middle Eastern people, and because it is a source of life. Despite uprooting and destruction, olive trees persist. That is what every hoodie here carries. A map stitched at the wrist, a key across the back, a word in Arabic over the heart: small things that say where you come from without saying a word. We are the olives. We are the roots that refuse to be removed.

Which Palestine hoodie should I pick?

Pick by what you want it to say. Our embroidered hoodies keep the map or the olive branch small and quiet at the chest or wrist, while our heritage designs tell a bigger story across the back.

Embroidered or printed: what's the difference?

Embroidery is stitched into the fabric, so the design won't crack or fade the way a print can. Printing lets us put a large, detailed artwork on the back, like the Palestinian woman in her embroidered thobe on the Yafa hoodie.

Our embroidery is done by machine, made to order. If you want a design you can wear every day without anyone reading it from across the room, go embroidered. If you want the hoodie to start the conversation, go for a back print.

What do the symbols on a Palestinian hoodie mean?

Each symbol stands for land, memory or return. Here is what you are wearing.

  • Watermelon. Like the Palestinian flag, the watermelon is red, white, black and green, and displays of the Palestinian flag are often restricted or banned by Israel, so the fruit stands in for it.
  • Handala. The barefoot refugee boy was created by cartoonist Naji al-Ali in 1969, and he stays forever 10 years old, the age Naji al-Ali was when his family was displaced in 1948.
  • Key of return (مفتاح العودة). The key to a home that families still remember. Roots don't get pulled up, and keys don't forget their doors.
  • Olive branch. Despite uprooting and destruction, olive trees persist. We are the olives.
  • Hanoon (الحنون). The red poppy that covers Palestine's hills every spring, a sign of hope and sumud (steadfastness).
  • Yafa orange. The Jaffa orange from the orchards of Palestine's Mediterranean coast, and the scent of orange blossom in Yafa every spring.

Do you have a Free Palestine hoodie?

Yes. The World Stands With Palestine Hoodie says it in plain words, and the Watermelon and Handala hoodies say it without a single word.

For something that reads in Arabic, try the فلسطين Palestine Hoodie or browse our Arabic calligraphy hoodies.

Are these hoodies for men and women?

Yes, every Palestine hoodie here is unisex, cut to fit men and women alike. Pick your size from the measurements on each product page rather than from the label.

Sizes run S to 2XL or 3XL depending on the design, and the Roots of Return hoodie goes from XS to 4XL. Check the size chart on each product before you order.

Do the hoodies run small?

Some do. The Yafa Orange Blossom, Roots of Resilience and Gaza Roots hoodies run small, so order one size larger than usual.

The embroidered hoodies are a regular, true-to-size fit. Most product pages list measurements in inches.

Is there a Palestine zip-up hoodie or sweatshirt?

Yes, the Heavyweight Zip Hoodie has a metal zipper and an embroidered olive branch at the wrist. The Al Quds Jerusalem Hoodie is also a full zip.

Every Palestine sweatshirt in this collection currently has a hood. We don't carry a crewneck yet.

How long does a Palestine hoodie take to arrive?

Each hoodie is made to order, with 2 to 7 business days of production before it ships. You get a tracking link by email as soon as it leaves.

We ship worldwide from the US, with free US shipping on orders over $50. Unworn items can be returned within 30 days.
