So yeah christmas has been and gone, sorta disappointing i didnt get my mums present on time, in fact i still havent got it, so hopefully i will get it this week, but apparently its just little things and nothing too expensive which is good if it doesnt arriveĬhristmas was good, had a mexican meal on the 24th, oh my word stuffed after that one, had some tacos, carne asado, tortas, soups and quesadillas, one soup was rather rancid but i tried a bit, its like all the bits of the cow u dont wanna think about in a soup, needless to say i ate every other thing first and then was a full so i gave it a miss!Ģ5th was a huge turkey with nearly everything, no roast potatoes, oh well santa is revisiting on the 5th of feb so their will be roasties then! seriously huge dinner again, was nice tho, wasnt much pigging out on the usual deserts and any chocolate that u have so all in all a healthier christmas which was nice Rival company Russell may have invented it in 1922, but Champion came up with the flocking process that allowed all manner of team logos and university names to be emblazoned over a sweatshirt’s front, thus driving its popularity.Well i sorta felt that new year had already happened cause i always have a clock on home time so it was sorta funny talking to mum while new year was happening in britain but was cool celebrating with some friends here too! was a fun evening! US company Champion, once more entertainingly known as the Knickerbocker Knitting Company, founded in 1919, was a pioneer in the development of the sweatshirt. Not for nothing has the hoodie had a long, illustrious history as the all-purpose garment of choice for subcultures as diverse as punk, hip-hop and skateboarding meaning the hoodie has always managed to maintain a certain degree of edginess without necessarily the more recent criminal overtones. Style-wise, there’s everything from teched-out running options to classic jersey cotton, all with the same well-established sporting pedigree and at prices that leave plenty of room for manoeuvre.īuy now at Nike The History of the Hoodie The Oregonian sportswear giant has been in the game since the 1960s and has been heavily involved in the hoodie’s rise to prominence.

It’s the security blanket of the menswear world and should be treasured as such.Īt its core, the hoodie is a piece of sportswear, and there are few brands that know how to do that better than Nike. If the onesie is, to be frank, something no man should be seen dead or alive wearing, the hoodie is the next best thing for feeling wrapped up. But that’s not really what the hoodie is about.
But it does mean that there’s scope for the hoodie to at least step towards respectability.Īs with so many things, the more attention that is paid to quality – the best hoodies come in a heavyweight, all-cotton fabric, with reverse weave and loop-wheel manufacturer all helping to raise standards – the greater the potential the garment has for smartness. This doesn’t mean you should start to wear a hoodie over a dress shirt or with dress pants (think, rather, dark wash jeans or chinos). At the other end there is the dark, trim-fitting, plain hoodie, which is sleek and presentable. But there are degrees: at one end there’s the sloppy, slightly outsized faded and printed hoodie that’s fine for slumbering on the sofa or popping to the pub on a Sunday. It’s not in any way formal and, unlike a sweatshirt, is hard to even dress up under a sports jacket.
Today’s hoodie is still definitely a casual garment.
