The All-Mighty have some great new stuff available and I’d say that the designs have gone from strength to strength over the time that I’ve been watching them.
There’s lot of cool and cute little touches on this hoodie, like the printing on the hood drawstring, frills on the cuff ands pockets, and yes, even elbow patches! Their use of the dog patch on the back left might not to be everyone’s taste, but if you don’t want a dog on your clothes then the All-Mighty really isn’t the place for you.

Have you seen
Johnny Cupcakes new site? Hot damn is it looking sweet, with the custom artwork that pops up on each of the site tabs and the cool pics (even though most of them are recycled from the old site). Apparently there’s going to be a lot of treats coming up over the next few days, and a new wave of designs coming in over time, so keep a look out for those.
I’m just going to give you their blurb for the pullover hoodie (the only hoodie they currently sell) because I’m about to go to watch Newcastle vs Levadia Tallinn (that’s ’soccer’ to most of the readers) and I’m getting a bit tight for time:
Jog! Box! Breakdance! And as my friend Mike Murphy say’s, “”chill out!”". You can do all of those, and MORE! In this comfy Johnny Cupcakes hoodie. *Runs a little tighter and is 100% cotton. I reccomend you get 1 size bigger than your normal size.
Yes, it may be a bit simple, but you gotta loves those cupcakes!

I realised today that I simply don’t do enough sweater posts, and it’s not because I have anything against them, there just doesn’t seem to be as many out there when compared to the ever-popular hoodie (zipped or not).
Luckily our friends over at Brooklyn Industries can always be relied on to put out quality designs, and whilst I’m pretty sure that the Griffin Instarsia design isn’t exactly new, its still good and will provide some much needed warmth now that the nights are closing in and the leaves are turning (expect me to say that for the next couple of months).
I like the stripes on the cuffs and hem, it feels like a bit of retro nostalgia. The griffin design on the chest might be a bit Pringle-ish for some, but I’d argue that it suits the style of the jumper, especially considering the stripes.

Communism (especially the Soviet kind) seems to be a pretty popular draw for clothing designers, and whilst most of the designs and prints are pretty simple they do have a bit of charm, despite my constant reservations over politically aware clothing. On a side note, the novelty/retro Commie-clothing that I saw in Russia was far less attractive than any ‘Hammer & Sickle wear’ that I’ve seen coming out of the US, though we are going back a few years with my reference, so the Ruskies may be undergoing their own t-shirt revolution that I don’t know about.
Red Army Co is a company dedicated to putting iconic Soviet style images on well-priced items of clothing. It seems fitting that a company like this keeps their prices low, though I’m not sure what Lenin would think about them using Amazon to power their shop! They also seem to be very active within the skateboarding and music communities, if their news page is anything to go by.
Some of their designs are the pretty standard fayre, eagles, the colour red, yadda yadda yadda, but there are some more creative offerings as well, such as this Imperial Guard hoodie (also available as a tee or track jacket).
It’s a pretty cool design, with a largely hand-drawn style, and its refreshing to see a distinct lack of red in the design.
