The garment is the best fitting, best made, heaviest weight hoodie that I have ever owned. It was especially important to me to buy an American textile due to the insane amount of shuttered mills in my area.

I am not a sweatshirt or hoodie person, but I have two that I really like. Both were gifts so I have no idea how much or where to find them. (I prefer the zip up versions though)
One is your typical Carhartt which is thick, extra heavy sweatshirt material. Very warm and pretty wind proof.
The second is my favorite. It is an Under Armor one. It is even thicker than the Carhartt. I'd say windproof in all but the strongest of winds. Some kindof thick felt like material. Sherpa type stuff inside.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Oz_Shadow,

man... I just bought a hoodie yesterday to replace the 2 that I've somehow magically lost over the past year. It was 13 bucks. The two I had before lasted me a decade each of nearly everyday wear. I just can't imagine spending so much on one.
Now the real question - Who actually uses the hood on their hoodies? I use mine all the time and people look at me like I'm the damn unibomber while they're wearing a beanie with their hoodie. Hey guys, you have a hood BUILT IN. Why are you wearing a hoodie if you won't use the hood???

My go to hoodie for bad weather is from SORD Pricy, but worth the cost. Mine is 3 years old, warm, dry and functional.

These guys are about a half hour from me but I've never heard of them before. Spendy hoodie! Looking at his address there's no manufacturing in that area all residential. Must be sourcing it elsewhere and drop shipping them.

When I bought my shirt from them I called and the owner answered the phone. Just from the site and it sounds like a home business. There used have to photos of them taking the blankets to a local laundry mat to shrink then dried. They are handmade. I have worn mine in the goose blind on some really cold day 20+ kept me warm wool will still keep you warm if it gets wet a plus. Very well made. They say Buy Once Cry Once for good stuff. Chris

Mojo sportswear are the most wonderful hoodies I've ever seen. They are designed for saltwater fishing, and the pictures don’t do them justice on the quality. They are having a 50% off Black Friday sale staying at 6pm tonight, so there will be an amazing price on these!
I'm ordering another one tonight, and getting one for my son too.
I know you posted this as a joke, but please don't order from DressLily. It's a Chinese clothing ripoff site, with a long history of problems.
Basically they try to replicate designer clothing cheaply in Chinese sweatshops, using the cheapest materials and slave labor they can find. And the end result is a piece of crappy clothing that's nothing like what you ordered/wanted. That's if it ever arrives at all.
There's a 50% chance you order will never arrive, a 50% chance that it will arrive but look nothing like what you ordered, and a 100% chance of you wasting your money.

got me an American Giant Classic Full Zip - very well made. Right up there with my Flint and Tinder 10-year hoodie.
