PRICES JUMPED!!! Hoody, 50 poly/50 cotton $11 @ Amazon - PRICES JUMPED!!!

Edit: See post #3 below for links.

This price is current, but will likely go up very shortly. I'm wearing one now. I love it. Got mine for about $15+tax at Amazon. One shortcoming I'm aware of: Doesn't have those grommets where the draw string pulls into the hood. I figure that's the Achilles heel. So, I bought a grommet kit and installed them myself on the one I'm wearing, 2 grommets. Having the kit, I ordered 7 of these today at way under the price they were going for. They have around 20 colors to choose from. Many are priced substantially more than the ones I bought: $11 for the Sport Grey, Dark Heather, Navy. The Safety Green is $9.09, a steal. I love those for bicycle/skating.

I've bought several sweatshirts from that brand the last few years (but in the full-zip variety), and they are my favorite sweatshirts. I pretty much wear them as my winter coat in the SE.

They are very soft and warm. This is what I bought in case anyone else like the full-zip kind (more expensive than what is listed above though, and price varies among colors):

Very nice and soft. I have about 15 sweatshirts, maybe 20, most of them hoodies and I bought 7 of these 50/50 Gildan hoodies today because I prefer 50/50 blend. Seem to wear better and as UsandThem said, nice and soft. Personally, I don't go for zip-up sweatshirts, prefer pull-overs. Like I said, these lack grommets, but I have a grommet kit, put a pair in the Gildan hoody I already have. It's not hard to do, will do it in the others. I had to make a slit behind the existing hole, pull the cord out of the way, install the grommet, pull the cord back down and through the grommet and then sew up the slit I made. Did this for each grommet. Other than that, seems like an ideal hoodie for me. And at $11? I was at Costco a 5 days ago and they have a special on a Puma hoody. I had a look. It's 60/40, cost about $15 after discount but also lacked grommets and I didn't get one. And $9.09 for a bright Safety Green hoody? Man, I prize those for the safety aspect. I snapped up 3 of them today.

Yeah, the pricing can be all of the place with different colors and sizes. When I bought mine (XL), I bought several different colors, and they all were between $14 - $17 each. Maybe you can catch them at a lower price through a place like CamelCamelCamel. They are really good quality.

100% poly sucks, yes, 50/50 rules, especially for shirts and pants... no ironing! This 50/50 hoody (I'm wearing it now) is terrific. Feels better than all my other sweatshirts and I have close to 20. 50/50 is where it's at.

But suit yourself...

 

[UsandThem]

Nah, all polyester sweatshirts suck. 60/40 or 50/50 cotton & polyester is the magical balance amount.

I was just typing out the same thing.

I never machine dry my hoodies, dry then on a line in the sun, so wouldn't know. Anyway, the deal's dead, most of them are over $20 now.
