moral of the story: don't buy hoodies over $70-100 or you'll slowly lose your sanity
@HeyImBoschea11 ай бұрын
Same goes for most clothes tbh. Outside of certain materials like leather. Almost nothings needs to cost more than ~$150, past that you're paying for the brand, original cuts, hype etc
@PostingCringeOnMain11 ай бұрын
Based on my experience, that seems to be the sweet spot. Spend more and you'll eat yourself alive constantly thinking about all the other stuff you could've bought with the money or never actually wearing the damn hoodie because you wanna keep it like its your sunday best only for "special occasions". Spend less and it won't last, will look like crap after 3 washes, will lose it's shape, colour, etc. The $70-$100 price point is definitely hitting the sweet spot where you can get something nicely branded, well made, good quality and fashion cut that you won't mind getting dirty through daily driving.

My favorite hoodie I have is a vintage 90's fruit of the loom xl that a guy sewed a band shirt onto the front and back of it (disincarnate - dreams of the carrion kind), they were built DIFFERENT back then. The material has held up so well and it is super soft and comfortable and has a distinct fade on it which with the slight distressing from wear over the years altogether gives it a lived in appeal, paid 50$ for it.

I own clothing line and hoodie are one thing that you really can have the biggest margin while still being competitive on pricing(I mean the cheapest cost to produce hoodie here is $3/4 so even with Gildan pricing the profit is double the cost. It cost me $20 per item and that's already the best hoodie quality from manufacturer that I can find around my area with front and back printing. I think spending $50 - $100 are the right amount if you wanna search for the best hoodie quality without paying hype or branding taxes.

My nicest, comfortable, good quality, nice weight, is that super oversized Marques Almeida hoodie that was popular like 5 years ago. $700. Definitely feels more expensive than the $250 Babar one. I had a $450 KTZ hoodie years ago, it had good weight and it felt good quality, but i gave it to my nephew. ~$200-300 seems the best range for me. But it really depends on the brand.
