Just opened two of the crew necks I ordered from Jiberish to find out there sizing is a bit different. Maybe it's just me but for a company as good as Jiberish I thought the first drop was quite weak even if it was just a prequel for what the second drop will have in store. There old clothing is constructed great, designs are always amazing, and always was steezey, Has Jiberish gone mainstream?

nope. i think these are there best two drops to date. jiberish is a streetwear company and i think they do a fantastic job making the whole spectrum of sizes so all their customers are happy.

The 09/10 drop was amazing last year was pretty good too, I'm excited to see the second drop. Hopefully we won't be disapointed.

it does seem to go a bit more towards streetwear now, with out the almost facemask thingy on the hoodies, but still not mainstream and still pretty dope.

designs:
#1- 0809
#2- 0910
#3- 0708
#3- 0607
#5- 1011
#6- 1112

fabric:

#1- 0607
#1- 0708
#3- 1112
#4- 1011
#4- 0910
#4- 0809

The designs this year really suck IMO, for both drops, just not my style. I've heard the fabric is legit though, just not nearly as good the old stuff :/

agree completely with the fabrics, not so much the designs. the only thing i'm not happy with is they're basically reusing old designs and patterns.

The Second Drop was good, although it is really weak compared to the years before. Mainstream was a bad choice of words it's more like streetwear now, not something you'd wear on the mountain.

Not mainstream as in EVERYBODY has it, it's more focused to a modern look

I'm starting to lean towards Saga these days, their designs are always fresh and I always love their products. Really good quality too. Opinions?

I just got my first jiberish piece in a few years and couldnt be more stoked on how the crew neck feels and fits. It is super comfortable, the ribbing is perfect and its nice and warm. I stopped buying jiberish basically because it was too expensive and trendy but my faith has been restored.

I'd say it's semi mainstream for lil kids riding park. Don't get me wrong, they make sick clothes, but they're pretty overpriced. Little skittle-pimps who haven't heard about finish line, burlington coat factory, etc, will still shell out $30/t shirt though lmao. Whoever started it sure figured something out =p

no not at all. the old jiberish collections were more like outerwear with awesome designs. Now a days its tailored to a more modern style something you'd find at Zumiez or at a Billibong store

1. saga's "streetwear" is complete shit compared to what jiberish produces. they have yet to produce a t-shirt/hoodie that can ever hold a candle to what Jib releases every year. the only reason their (Sagas) stuff even sells is because of the name brand it carries. i realize that Jiberish is the same way to a certain extent, but at least they have some quality materials and cut & sew construction to back it up.

2. jiberish has NEVER made anything like outerwear. how would you possibly consider their previous drops to be similar to a jacket or pants? they're only released 1 water resistant piece ever; and that was in 06/07...which they only made eight of.

you're so retarded, i'm not gonna lie.

wool 5 panels? cord hats? REAL leather letterman jacket? full wool coat? definitely doesn't sound like any Zumiez i've been to.

I dont even understand what this thread is about. Mainstream means popular, well known, but you are talking about fits? Wut?

though not outerwear, the freshkut, windbreakers, and vests are all more water resistant than the all over.


and can someone please define the term streetwear?

here's my shot at defining streetwear in a single sentence.

Not to be confused with street wear (any clothing worn on the street), streetwear is a market segment of apparel that emerged from the urban, surf, and skate scenes, and focuses on producing graphic tees and sweatshirts as well as cut and sew clothing, generally in limited quantities that are only available through certain retailers, creating exclusivity.

part of the reason i bought it, that way no one will have the same hoodie.


first time i bought a jiberish hoodie and i am super happy with it, not so much with the price though.

some retard kid at my school bought a nerd, decided to give or sell it to some fat loser who has no clue what jiberish or streetwear is, and i want to kill him.



I am super angry about this stuff though. Somehow, random-ass kids in my school end up with streetwear stuff, through various trades or something. like the fat football player idiot that wears a The Hundreds fitted everyday. I have considered buying that from him just so i don't have to watch him wear it anymore.

how does that make me sound mad? simply laying out simple facts.
plus this isn't a video game and i'm pretty far from a nerd.

nice try though Larry, good luck "slangin numbas at the ladiez".

Also if Jiberish is street wear which has been defined, thank you, how are they able to sponsor skiers and snowboarders?

i was so amped to buy a hoodie from the second drop. until i looked at the price, $86 for a hoodie? im all set. Props for them for establishing a company where people pay that much for a hoodie, but i rather help out some other company that sells stuff for cheaper
