    Update! We have decided to open up a design submission contest to see who can submit the best looking designs for each winter item (beanie, hat, hoodie, etc). If you would like to read more additional information or submit a design please visit this thread (http://www.wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?p=217716).

    --------------------------------------------------------

    I would like to see all of us outfitted nicely for the coming cold weather. I was thinking hoodies and hats or beanies (yes, they're actually going to be made this time).

    I have a few questions before I get into pricing though. Please answer the poll above.

    "Flex" Cotton w/ Full zipper front?
    [​IMG]
    A fitted sporty unisex hoody in our Flex Fleece fabric. Shown with our BB401 Poly-Cotton Short Sleeve Crew Neck.

    • Flex Fleece (50% Polyester / 50% Cotton Fleece) construction
    • Hooded with contrast white drawcord and zipper
    • Kangaroo pocket
    • Matching rib waistband and cuffs


    Full Cotton w/ Full zipper front?
    [​IMG]
    Just like our classic drawstring pull-over hoody, but with a zipper.

    • 100% California Fleece cotton, combed for softness and comfort (Heather Grey contains 10% polyester)
    • Kangaroo pocket
    • Comfortable hood with drawstring
    • Stretchy, comfortably fitted double-stitched* cuffs and hem


    Full cotton track jacket w/ full zipper front?
    [​IMG]
    One of our best sellers. Featuring contrasting white piping and zipper.
    • 100% California Fleece cotton, combed for softness and comfort
    • Reinforced collar to maintain shape through repeated washings
    • Stretchy, comfortably fitted double-stitched* cuffs and hem
    • Unisex size – women may prefer to order one size smaller.


    Cheers,
    alex

    I voted for the Full Cotton w/ Full zipper front and the cotton beanie but LMK when they are ready I want both the above and a track jacket as well. Any ideas of what colors you will have? What is the design gonna be?

    Not sure on either account yet, just wanted to throw the feeler out there. I was thinking of blue or black but you tell me.

    American Apparel models only come in 1 style -- cracked out.

    As with anything, enough in qty lowers the price some. I am trying to set the price point of these @ $35 or less. Trying to keep it reasonable for everyone :)

    Not really digging the jackets, though it could be the models.

    I'd certainly be down for a hat and beanie.

    well from the choices given I guess Full Cotton Full Front Zip and the beanie are the best.

    Why not a hoodie pullover sweatshirt also

    A full pull over is definitely an option, I just posted up a couple styles I thought would be popular.

    Track jacket in black would be cool. I have 100 beanies, but one more couldn't hurt. You thinking embroidery of logo on front of jacket/sweatshirt or ???

    Those are all hoodies, just not pullovers. I am getting the consensus though that everyone wants a simple pullover, which is fine. I can get those and they're even cheaper.

    If you do get pullovers get soft cotton/polyester rather than the cheap cotton ones that have tight collars and fuzz on the inside. We got those for wrestling camp one year and they were so uncomfortable to work out in and wear in general

    Heh - I'm kinda feelin this...

    But ya - definitely think a standard pullover hoodie might be a little better - I dunno - it could just be the chicks modelling them... Which, btw, #2 ftw...

    Definitely the embroidery though over the silk screen - much more high class... Other than the pull over - the track jacket's very nice - definitely go with black or charcoal gray though... And I'd vote for the beanie over the flex hat. :)

    As far as pullovers go - if we're talking about a cotton/fleece pullover hoodie on both inside and out - perhaps a charcoal gray? What about a pullover jacket similar to the track jacket but w/o the zipper? What about something w/ vinyl exterior and fleece interior for wind & weather resistant? Maybe again in charcoal gray? I guess I prefer charcoal gray for a couple reasons... Black shows any blemishes you get on it - rub against something - boom - you can tell... Dog hair, cat hair, dust, lint, etc... Charcoal gray doesn't show any of this nearly as well and matches everything...

    I do like the track jacket though even w/ the zipper - I think the models just make it look bad... Either way - imma quit ramblin now...sleep is good!

    Alright so the general opinion is for a full pullover w/ a hood. I am talking with embroidery guy this week and we'll be moving from there. A full pullover w/ a hood will reduce our costs a good bit as well.

    As for the graphic, I am working on a few and we can vote from there. If you have suggestions or would like to submit your own graphic please email it to me!
