Going to post in the review section when I have some time, but for now:

Sweatshirts they have in stock = bomb. Very similar style to this years Saga, but with a few changes - I love both, but just a heads up for any buyers out there. I got the zip up hoodie in Large, and it was in my hands in a few days.

Uni-threads is a little lighter weight - more casual wear around town, vs Saga, which I would take up to the hill and ride in. Theres also a little bit of a difference in colors, Uni is more muted than Saga's bright and flashy. Again, not a bad thing, the differences lend them to different occasions and styles. Its a bit shorter than your Large Saga, but still what I would consider Tall, even in a Large. Dare I even say a little sophisticated.

But my favorite thing has to be the Needle logo. I'm a Seattle native, and I've just got to love it. The little details are growing on me - the lining of the hood, the deep side pockets... its just the sex. Soft as hell lining, we'll have to see how that stands up after a few washes... but I'm really impressed. Really cool to see this little Seattle upstart put out some great gear.

I'd really like to know about the button hoodie if anyones snagged one yet, both in fit and quality. Post if you got it and want to review it, I really dont need another sweatshirt, but man....

i guess we were stupid to think they would actually drop it today like they said. i mean, they did such a good job keeping the original date of over a month ago.
looks like my money will be going to the jiberish drop tomorrow

Haha. Have some faith, UNI is going to have arguably just as sick stuff, very high quality and extremely affordable compared to jibberish. Don't be another typical kid and spend all mommies money on overpriced clothing.

damn guys real sorry. Have just been fucking stacked with other stuff. Stuff will drop as soon as were ready. Thanks everyone who is waiting for this stuff, really appreciate it. Like I said earlier it's not a huge line, just a little something before the next sweatshirts come out.

Chill man, he already apologized and learned his lesson about this. He's a busy guy with a lot going on, and not all the stuff has arrived yet. He's running a business, and its hard to release stuff when not all of it's ready. Just give it some more time, if you can't do that, then quit bitching and buy a different hat.

He did apologize but generally it's pretty bad rep for a company to be so far behind production date. I know the quality is going to be amazing that's only reason i am waiting.

Good things come to those who wait, when you're a small indie you get screwed by suppliers sometimes. Happened to us before for sure. If you want a snapback now, go to Wal-mart, I dont mind waiting.

if you can manage to get it, XXXL is 39 inches. coming in at 36 inches, their XXL is as tall as 4X jiberish. what isn't tall enough for you?

ya, I am 6'6 and the XXXL is pretty damn big. Collin Collins has it on in an edit somewhere and I'm pretty sure he is at least 6'4 maybe even taller. They just dont put 12 X's on their tags haha

New UNI is the freshest out there! If you guys don't by the snapbacks you will seriously regret it. the have padding on the inside boooyyaahh. and mines held up through a whole weekend of shredding at hood so they're definitely good quality.

shirts and crew is top notch too.
