Looking for a new hoodie for casual wear and riding.. Interested in the new stuff for black Friday but I've heard the quality has changed over the years.

My last item of theirs was the '09 level 1 crew with the green band and it was everything I want and more. Are they still solid hoodies?

The quality is still good but the fit has changed. And the designs are boring AF now.

In my recent experience, only the Supima cotton shirts are high quality. The cheaper champion shirts are sort of shitty and shrink in the dryer.

Interesting, can you expand a little more?

Are the bodies wider and length shorter? Would bumping up a size compensate or would I just be swimming in it?

I hate wide, boxy feeling hoodies.

There was a thread maybe a month ago about the ribbing on the cuffs and around the waist.

I was hoping to see some more coat / jacket type of pieces again. A hoodie is a hoodie and I don’t need more. Something casual like the field coat they released a whole back would be primo

This- no way I should pay $80 for some pants only to have the graphics crack to shit after a week- hell I've nearly my entire elk windbreaker back print fall off. Quality is no where near what it used to be, designs are basic, and you can't even really buy baggy shit from them anymore cause they changed up their fit to some whack shit.

I've got a whole ass closet of Jiberish but there hasn't been anything in over a year that has peaked my interest- at least not at the prices they charge.




also fuck waiting a month+ to get your shit, had to cancel an entire order cause they fucked up the production of their chore jackets and told us we'd have to wait at least a month for them to get remade and shipped out to us. Fuck that- if you can't ship a single T-shirt out in a couple of days then you need a better system or better interns.
