Who makes the best hoodie?
Oct 3, 2010 at 9:18 PM Post #16 of 47
As much as it pains me to say it, just grab a lined (waffle, sherpa, fleece, whatever) hoodie from American Eagle. I hate their stuff, but I have an older Sherpa lined hoodie from them that easily classifies in my favourites. Plus, $30. Can't go wrong with that. And it's lasted years! I don't know if I can vouch for their build quality nowadays, though.
 
Maybe hit up a Winners? (Do they have those in the States?)
 
Edit: I also recall two or three hoodies I own made by Nixon being fantastic quality.

Yea I just don't like American Eagle in general but I'll give it a chance if I ever stop by their store. Nixons should be pretty nice as they are, I think -don't quote me on this-, a line off of Billabong who makes snowboarding, skating and surfing gear.

I dig the $10 hoodie's at Walmart. I stock up every winter.
 
EDIT: Not the ugly hoodie's with designs on them. The plain comfy Fruit of the Loom ones.
I think they come in 5 different colors.



Word.
 
I probably have three of those in my closet and they're magic. The only moderately annoying issue is that they're not particular fitting for tall folk and as a fella with a pony tail, the hoods could be larger.

I could not find those on the website. They do list a Starter brand hoody for $15. My last two hoodies, I got from one of those hip-hop boutiques. I paid $35 for two and one had skulls on it, the other some tribal bs. Nothing wrong with them, they're heavy and durable, but I'm past the age where skulls are cool. So I'll take one for the team and see how the Starter ones are.

J Crew is something I would get. Lightweight and warm, so I'll look into that. LL Bean only has mostly kids and women stuff for sale so I'll stay away for now.
 


I live.. 15 minutes from L.L. Bean they have pretty much everything for men.

Hi boostedsm, what stores sell Reigning Champ because I couldn't find anything off the website.  I'd definitely like to support a local BC company when I visit home next.

Wow! That seems super nice, I wish that they distributed here in the US.

All these have been turning out pretty expensive. A thin hoodie was what I was looking for, something to block the windchill factor. The one on J Crew looks very close to what I'm looking for, except it comes out to $75 shipped, any one got an around $30-40 shipped one for recommendation?
