THIS ECO HOODIE HELPS BABY LOBSTERS! For every sale of this product, 15% of the profits will be donated to The National Lobster Hatchery in Padstow 💙
The NLH is a pioneering marine conservation, research & education charity that aims to conserve native lobster populations. Baby lobsters are raised at the hatchery until they reach a life stage at which they are better able to survive in the wild. At this point they are released back into our waters with the help of local fishermen and dive schools.
The NLH's innovative hatchery techniques help to improve juvenile lobster survival rate by around 1,000 times, compared to those born naturally in the wild.
Lobsters never stop growing - but we don't really know how long they live because lobster traps are only designed to catch smaller lobsters. They're tricky to catch as well because they will eat each other if they're hungry and there's no other tasty snacks available! They have teeth in their stomachs - well sort of - they use a gastric mill-like process to break up their food in their stomachs. Proportionally they are super strong - one claw can use 100 pounds of pressure per square inch! Definitely a contender for Deadly 60!

Each little Blue Panda design is conceived, sketched & brought to life by our in-house artist Steve.
"I’ve always loved animals & have been drawing them as far back as I can recall, dragging wildlife encyclopedias around with me as a small child.
Rediscovering this passion as an adult brings me full circle & I love the fact that I’m able to keep the entire process in-house.
From a simple sketch I can bring the animal to life with the use of stitch types, angles & thread colour choices - embroidery digitizing is an art in itself & I absolutely love doing this part of the process.
With each design I try to capture the spirit of the animal and I hope you can feel this too."
