it's to the point that either you buy one that looks like a pantone color experiment...

or

you look like you had a war with a curtain store...

there's maybe 2 that i'd consider. :roll:

i blame icecream and nigo for ruining hoodies forever.

after 25 years of running things, carhartt is still the one.,

A couple of "seasons" ago, Gap did the best hoodie mankind has ever created. Plain colour, thick cotton but with a thinner ribbed bit down the ribs to keep you cool. As much as I hate the brand, I've got about 5 of the hoodies in my wardrobe. Now you can't get one out of there without "Gap" in big chunky letters all over it, for twice the price. I don't wanna be a walking billboard for your sweatshop merchandise kthxbye.

Now I'm all about TK Maxx. Pikey as fuck but you can't beat plain colour hoodies for under a tenner.

too right

hoodie and jeans is my standard get-up-and-go gear

not cos i'm a walking billboard or have been dragged through a paintball arena, just cos its comfy and chilled out

the mad designs and price tags to boot can take a running jump....

Primark's good as well. So's Matalan for the basics like jeans but they sell an awful lot of gash.

<£10 Zip up hoody, tshirt for some band or label, jeans you don't really care about, converse all stars (20 quid and sharp as fuck imo), sorted.

Yeah man nice. Got an MHi neon spray paint hoody that I bought in the January sales that I fell like a right plum in these days.

Stop with the shitty allover prints aswell please.

I dunno man I kinda like those print hoodies as long as they aren't ridiculous. Carhartt bits are always a bit dull.

I need to get something thats a bit lowkey but not something a hiker would wear.
