Our second batch of new, improved hoodies will be here by wednesday. They will be 100% colorfast, preshrunk, and in the correct extra large and tall sizing. They are also now available in XXL Tall and come in colors to match all the tees:

- purple with yellow accent
- yellow with purple accent
- red with white accent
- blue with yellow accent

Prices will go up around Wednesday when they become in stock and the new colors are very limited, so get yours quick! All other items are in stock and ready to ship immediately.


Enjoy!

your stuff is so dope! You guys should make a prototype suit for John in Joss, perhaps a few to get your name out there even more!

Keep up the awesome work

I'm 5'11" and I want a hoodie that goes like half way between my knees and waist.  I want it a little longer than my xl jiberish.  What size should I be looking at?

im sorry i was quite ticked off with the quality with the huge wait. Too lazy to return it. I mean it looks good but no that tall and big. Super thin. Horrible quality. There i said it.

The first batch had color bleeding issues and were WAY smaller than they were suppose to be. The new ones are 100% colorfast, and are the correct sizes as shown on the website. (The XXL Talls are 5" taller than the normal XXL's which are already HUGE.)

Because of the first batch being messed up, we paid shipping costs both ways for all hoodie customers to exchange/return them and allowed them to change sizing, colors, etc for the new ones regardless if they were worn, damaged, whatever.

wow guys thats awesome.  two of my friends got hoodies and they were way smaller than they expected. but its dope that you guys are hooking up all the kids that were disapointed with the smaller sizing with any color or size.

Props for having great customer service

so any sweatshirt that is bought now will be from the new batch which is bigger and taller. Also are they still tall even if they don't say tall next to the size?

I dont want to be a pest but is this still an option? I have only worn mine a handful of times and would really appreciate a larger size. I love the hoodie, design, fabric, colors, just its too small.

NO shut up. this company actually understands how to run a business, free returns when the mess up and you can actually talk to the owner, the sweatshirts are already like $48 and you want 10% off more for their main targeted audience? pay the extra $5 you lazy ass

First Drop! I preordered a purple/yellow hoodie last January, and I'm extremely stoked to get it. When should I expect it to arrive? I understand they were supposed to ship the first week of March... so fucking stoked! The way you guys have been dealing with everything is awesome; I haven't heard a single negative comment. If only every company had customer service so awesome...

Looks dope but you guys should diversify. All those colors are super loud, if you had some darker (like brown and white would be sick) i would buy one in a second

Calm your hormones. If you didnt notice most of my posts are SARCASM. Get that thru your thick K9 skull (sarcasm)... Take a pill. I dont want 10% off, $48 is already insane for a sweat shirt. GET OFF MY DICK.

.I'm 6'1 and my xxl tall teeshirt and jersey go an inch below my knees. I got the tall size because of how small the xxl hoodie WAS, but it's crazy. I'll put up pics of shirt and jersey later if anyone wants

I would probably buy one, but the shipping to the UK costs more than the hoodie ($62).

All the hoodies did in fact arrive on time- yesterday (Wednesday) and we have been packaging and shipping them out around the clock. Everyone should get a tracking number by Monday.

All items on the website are now in stock and ship immediately. Outerwear is almost sold out completely, we have a few Large black and XL blue jackets left...
