Wrap yourself in the brilliance of scientific history with this Classic Unisex Pullover Hoodie, featuring the title page of Isaac Newton's groundbreaking work, Opticks.

This isn't just any hoodie; it's a tribute to Newton's genius, specifically featuring the title page from the copy gifted to his friend and colleague, Edmund Halley. This remarkable edition includes two handwritten Latin inscriptions by Halley himself. The first, 'Ex dono doctissimi Authoris,' meaning 'from the gift of the most learned author', highlights the esteem in which Halley held Newton. The second, 'Luceo,' meaning 'I shine' or 'I become light,' adds a profound touch, symbolizing the enlightenment brought forth by Newton's work on the nature of light and color.

This heavy blend hoodie is designed for comfort and durability. Crafted from a soft 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend, it offers a cozy feel with reduced pilling thanks to its air jet yarn. The double-lined hood with a matching drawstring provides extra warmth, while the front pouch pocket is perfect for keeping your hands warm or holding essentials. Rib knit cuffs and waistband with spandex ensure a snug and comfortable fit.

Whether you're a scholar, a science enthusiast, or simply appreciate the beauty of intellectual history, this Newton's Opticks hoodie is a must-have. Wear it and carry a piece of scientific legacy with you, and let the brilliance of Newton's mind inspire you every day.
