Ok. I know this thread is mostly dead, but that hoodie is great, but the site’s in japanese. This hoodie is perfect http://www.jamesperse.com/ShowProductImages.do?productId=prod180093&packCoupon=&showAlternateView=false&onlyOnRegularPrice=true&onlyOnSalePrice=false&urlTokensContext=/men/fleece/vintage-fleece-zip-up-hoodie&refreshOnClose=true
but costs $200.
The one linked above is pretty close, but just doesn’t have the same look or shape.
Any other suggestions for cheap ($30-$60ish) hoodies that I can actually buy?
Otherwise, I love the look. I’ve been looking at the J. Crew chambray for a year waiting for the price to drop- it’s good to see you all think it’s worth it, might go pick it up.

Solid choice with the Varsity pen. Say no to the hoodie go back to the classic crew neck.

Hey, Fisher’s already on the American List!

(Columbia Knit needs to be on there…made in the USA, better quality than American Apparel, but their focus is on quality and not porno ads…..)

The Varsity and the Parker Jotter are great for bag and desk pens. For a pocket and wallet pen, you can’t do better than the Fisher Space pen family.

The bullet pen is great for your pocket, but I stick with the stowaway, which fits right in my wallet.

From a design perspective, the bullet and the classic pens look pretty good.

Also, they’re made in the USA.

That UNIS wax pea coat is killing me, so nice. Such an amazing brand IMO.

For all the hoodie lovers… this one came up on google and looks awfully close: heather gray w/o the ugly white fleece lining.

“All of this can be had on the cheap if you look for it. The quality might not be there, but the spirit will. It is also important to say that if you spend the money and buy high quality goods they will last you much longer, saving money in the long run. Just please, try to avoid Wal-Mart, at this point they only care about price which is in my mind un-patriotic. —ACL”

Agreed. I find it hard to put my money where my mouth is. I have been looking for a chambray shirt for a while spending $60 or so at gap for one that is most likely made in a sweat shop seems lame when a good one costs $100 plus but is too expensive.

Steve — the 1000 Mile comes in three colors, brown, dark brown and black. I personally like the dark brown the best. — ACL
