Vintage GDOT Sweatshirt

Editors Notes

Navy heavyweight crewneck sweatshirt with small orange "GDOT We Believe In Safety" print on left chest, ribbed neckline, cuffs, and hem; Lee Heavy Weight tag at neck; classic relaxed workwear fit.

This sweatshirt comes from Lee’s Heavy Weight line, which was popular for its durable fleece used in workwear and promotional garments from the late 1980s through the 1990s. The GDOT "We Believe In Safety" print points to its origin as a safety or staff piece for the Georgia Department of Transportation, part of the long tradition of branded work crew gear. Lee is historically known for rugged denim and workwear, and these sweatshirts extended that reputation into comfortable cold-weather uniforms. Today, vintage work and promo sweatshirts like this are sought after for their authenticity, sturdy fabrication, and understated graphics. Pieces like this sit perfectly in modern wardrobes that mix utility, normcore styling, and a fondness for regional or institutional logos. It’s the kind of garment that looks just as good with beat-up jeans as it does layered over a crisp button-down for a casual, lived-in look.
