Even Pirates Had a Bedtime ~ Garment Dyed Crewneck

Rebels by Day, Asleep by Eight

Half past seven, dishes done, phone on the charger, a perfectly good evening politely declined. Turns out one of the busiest crews of the Golden Age had the same policy, in writing. For the parent counting hours to bedtime, the friend who leaves first, and anyone whose wild side has a curfew.

• Straight From the Articles: The crew rules recorded in Johnson's 1724 General History for Bartholomew Roberts had lights and candles out at eight at night, with late drinkers sent to the open deck without a light.
• For the Early Sleeper: Mother's Day, Father's Day, or the housewarming where everyone leaves by nine.
• Permission Granted: An honorable excuse for the 8:15 goodnight text.

Every crew has that one sweatshirt that ends up on every voyage, and this is the one ~ a Comfort Colors garment-dyed crewneck with a cotton face over cozy fleece, a relaxed fit with a rolled-forward shoulder and that broken-in feel from the very first wear ~ made for bonfires on the beach, chilly harbor mornings and plotting the next adventure
