Look at me keeping promises, I said I’d try and get more track jackets on the site and I’ve followed through with this beauty I found on Etsy.

I’m about to head out, so after getting your hopes up with the previous sentence I’m going to let you down by just using the blurb to describe this jacket:

“This super light jacket features a Seagull TLR (twin lens camera) in all its glory - perfect for Lomo junkies. This jacket is very lightweight and would be great for spring or cool summer nights.

Hand screened on a super-soft Alternative Apparel 100% cotton fleece jacket with exposed seams and raw edge trim

color: black on army
size: Men’s M, L, XL. let us know what size you’d like in the notes to seller at checkout.”

Interesting fact (if true), seagulls don’t actually exists, they just happen to be gulls that are by the sea.

I thought we’d take a look at a brand that’s on the slightly higher end of things since I was tipped off about them by Matt. True Love & False Idols don’t have an ‘about me’ page on their site, so I’m just going to have a stab at describing them myself. Lots of large, layered, vintage-look prints, some of which seem to have historical, religious and political connotations to their design, although nothing there’s nothing too in-your-face about the references.

I must admit, their hoodies aren’t typically the kind of thing I’d wear, but I know that kind of style is very popular with some people, and I think this selection looks better than most of the other hoodies in this style that I’ve seen before. Most of their hoodies are reversible too, which is always a bonus!

Like I said, TL&FI are a bit more on the high-end compared to HYAs usual assortment of college-kid-wallet friendly apparel, some of their hoodies are $235 (although you can basically half that if they’re reversible!), but a number of their tees and a few hoodies are on sale at Bazaar Adriatic at the moment, and with free shipping, which makes them rather more affordable. TL&FI are also available in a quite a lot of bricks & mortar boutiques, so look up the list on their site and go take a look if you get the chance (I’d love it if someone could report back about seeing these in the fleshcotton).
