I wrote about my love for The Hoodie.
#29 THE HOOD STAYS UP
True love.
In the world of Hoodies, I have another favourite.
Not a tie, but a close second.
The good old Crewneck Sweatshirt.
I think it is essential that everyone has at least two in their wardrobe.
For sure, a grey, any shade.
That is a given.
As for the other colour, your call.
I went with Navy Blue.
There is something about them.
Especially the soft ones.
Always go with the ‘French Terry.’
I think fit is equally important.
You want to go one size larger than what you usually wear.
Having the arms bigger and the chest bigger is such a nice feeling.
It is like wearing a blanket that only touches you where you want it to.
If I am out on one of those Sweatshirt rides, a white T-shirt underneath is a nice look.
Untucked and sticking out of the neck and waist.
It is nice to be ‘sloppy’ with them too.
You look even better.
Put one on, no concern if it is crooked, untucked, t-shirt hanging out.
Off you go.
I like to wear them out too.
A nice button-down shirt underneath, and you can get in anywhere.
I have a special one.
Unique.
One I have had for years.
I have been trying to find it again but have had no luck.
It is grey and has a pouch.
But to access the pouch, there are two black zippers on either side.
It is great to ride in, as it is a perfect place to put things and forget about them.
Secure.
In my searches, I did find something new.
It is pretty close.
A recent release.
Made by my favourite fleece manufacturer.
‘House of Blanks’
What a nice bonus.
They now have beautiful Crewneck Sweatshirts with a pouch.
House of Blanks makes the best fleece apparel in the world.
In fact, they say that in their bio.
Another bonus, they are Canadian.
Once you purchase one thing from them, you will never go anywhere else for anything fleece.
They are that good.
It is that good.
It is that well constructed.
Everything they do is stellar.
Promise.
It comes in a couple of greys too.
They know what they are doing.
Buy one.
Let people know you know what you are doing.
