I don’t post nearly enough hoodies considering that HYA used to be a hoodie blog, so I thought I’d try and redress that balance a bit after I saw this simple

Impressive new collection from Sin Star, I’d say that it follows a lot of the trends that are hot in the UK at the moment, but I’m fairly sure that does Sin Star a disservice since they’re probably actually influencing the scene at the moment. There’s a load more in the collection but I didn’t want to put too many images in this post.

You can generally tell how much I like a collection by the amount of pictures that I share of it, sometimes if it’s a big release from a brand I might skip one or two of the items just for the sake of brevity, but in the case of this #TokyoTribes collection from Project A Apparel I’ve included every item, if not all of the many, many lookbook photos the are available. Here’s what Project A have to say about the collection:
Project A Apparel are back with their first drop from their SS 2013 line, this time taking a trip to the far east with #tokyotribes. The first release from the collection focuses on the brand’s experiences and influences from Japan, taking in imagery from classic anime movies , Bosozuku biker gangs and video games. Featuring graphic tshirts, sweatshirts, a zip up hoody, hats as well as their very first illustrated oxford shirt. The new collection showcases two guest collaborators, Dublin artist Morgan who worked on the Lucky Pussy tee and patch graphics and world renowned Irish godfather of graffiti, Rask.
The collection was actually released on May 1st, but as I was away I’m sure you’ll forgive me for being a bit tardy with this one.

I am constantly impressed by the quality of designs at Sevenly, but it’s so depressing hearing about all the people that they’re helping with their charity donations. Can’t a guy just bury his head in the sand and enjoy the fantastic artwork?
This week $7 from every tee sale if going to the Polaris Project, which works to help fight against human trafficking and modern-day slavery.

I was going through the lookbook for the third season of releases from LUVD and just when I expected it to end a new item popped up, which has resulted in the massive gallery you can see below, and I haven’t even included all the images!
It is a wonderful release from LUVD, my standard yardstick of whether I like a collection is whether I would wear it, and in this case I can say yes, I would wear absolutely every item. The standout piece for me is the ‘Forgive’ t-shirt, I like the typework on it, but they’ve done a good job with the logo items as well. Great lookbook photography really helps to bring it all alive too. Tee are $24/26, and hoodies will set you back $45.

SS13 Lookbook Video from Rawvault on Vimeo.
I like lookbook videos, especially when they come from brands that I haven’t heard of before, it’s a really good visual introduction and helps give a good feeling for what the brand are about. However, in this case it also brought up a fairly large error from the outset which distracted me for the rest of the video. Just after the title splash we can see the front of one of their new hats (best view at 10 seconds), with Rawvault in large text and the phrase “Get What Your Given” embroidered on it. Unfortunately, I haven’t made the typo in that phrase, they have, as if should be “Get What You’re Given.” As the range is not yet on sale on their site (though lots of other cool stuff is from their own brand and others, nice to see The Quiet Life in there) hopefully that means it’s samples in the lookbook and they can have the correct spelling on the full run because I wouldn’t buy something if I knew there was an error on it as Iwouldn’t want to wear something that would lead to know-it-alls like myself correcting the spelling on my clothing. Or maybe it’s meant to be spelled wrong, that seems like something that cool brands might do.

I’m usually fairly cynical about charity t-shirt sites, Sevenly has proven to be an exception since they always (always!) have good looking tees and give a good portion of the shirt cost to charity, but the effect that this weeks donation can give has really floored me. As usual, buying a shirt from Sevenly will result in $7 going to their chosen charity of the week, which this week is End7, a charity dedicated to eliminating seven neglected tropical diseases by 2020, a lofty goal, but why aim low when you’re dealing with diseases?
You’d think it would be quite expensive protect children from seven different diseases, but it’s actually just 50c, and that’s not for one dose, that’s protection for a whole year, so your $7 will ensure that 14 kids don’t get “elephantiasis, river blindness, trachoma, snail fever, hookworm, whipworm and roundworm.” It’s amazing just how much of a difference such a small amount of money can make.
Also, the designs look great!

Sevenly have teamed up with Next Door (a charity fighting domestic abuse) to raise some money for their important work. As usual the designs are top notch, they seem to always have a solid line-up of designs over at Sevenly. $7 from each sale goes directly to the charity so if you like any of the designs then pick one up and feel better about yourself for helping someone out!

Sevenly have partnered with Autism Speaks this week, giving $7 from each sale as usual to help the charity. Five very nice designs available in various styles and colourways, have at it!

Last week I was lucky enough to review a sample from MKNK Clothing! The tee arrived a pretty funky pizza box style packaging with some lovely cute freebies.
When I was first told about this site I hopped on their site to see what they were about. I enjoyed the site, it’s clean, crisp and bold and all their designs have a flow as if they are part of a cohesive collection.
The designs are all pretty cool, with gaming, music and they are all on white tees. I think it works because it makes the designs pop. The hoodies are on black and grey and they look awesome too. All the tees are guy fit but I’ve started just throwing them on with leggings, dead comfy! I particularly like this design called Bolt Dismay! All the designs are original, you won’t find anything like these anywhere else.
The quality of the tee I received was first class! It was an absolute joy to wear and I’m totally looking forward to wearing it in the summer with my bright yellow shorts! It also washed super well the print is still as perfect as it was pre wash.
MKNK have also have had some product shots done on models and they are very current and in touch with the young un’s of today. I would definitely be inclined to buy one of these tees or hoodies for my 16 year old brother and I know for a fact he would be happy to wear them.
Drop by their FB page https://www.facebook.com/mknkclothing and also they have a $5 discount code on the go until 30th of April : BUNNYHOP
You also get a cute paper toy to make up! Amazing idea! Haven’t made mine up yet but I am gonna!

New Urban Boutique are having a sale, go check out some of their stuff, something might catch you eye from brands like Alphabet Pony, Death by Cutie, Dirty Smart, Doccia, Manna and Who Clothing to name a few. Those three t-shirts caught my eye.

Clouds release these wavy t-shirts and hoodies, the Nike inspired ‘Just Do It’ tee is a spring 2013 release, which the text says exactly what you should do, while the rest is winter 2012-2013. Their products might come across as rebellious and explicit but aren’t we all rebellious at some point in our life’s? Yes, I thought so, but people can also be generous, use this promo code 25OFF, to get 25% off any order online.

Could anyone really be a big enough Star Wars fan to wear this hoodie from 80sTees when they weren’t at a convention?
I’m fairly sure that this is meant to be a women’s hoodie, but since the sizes go up to 4XL I think that it could fit guys too, if you want to look like Princess Leia.
Costiness=$50 Buy it at 80sTees

File this one under interesting. There’s a company called Flint and Tinder that are used to making belts, rucksacks and manly outdoors things, and they’re now turning their attention to making hoodies, but not just any hoodies of course, hoodies that are built to last.
They argue that we, the general public, have been conditioned by clothing manufacturers to believe that clothes have a short lifespan. People expect something from Primark to last for just a couple of nights out, and they’re priced that way, but there’s no reason why a good quality hoodie shouldn’t last for a long time even if you wear it regularly. F&T give lots of reasons for why their hoodie is built to last, and I’d be inclined to agree with them, largely because they’re offering a 10 year free mending service, so if the seams come apart or you get a rip in it over the next 10 years you send it back and they will mend it for you, not replace it, but mend your own hoodie and send it back.
Clearly, other people think that this is interesting too, because with 40 days to go (I’m writing this on Tuesday afternoon) they’re at $373,097 pledged, far ahead of their $50,000 goal, so you know that if you pledge this will get funded, and they’re not a fly-by-night operation so it’s hard to foresee any problems in them delivering the hoodie n the short term at least. If you want to get in on the action yourself you’re looking at $89 for a hoodie, which actually seems like amazing value if it lasts as long as they say it will.

MKNK, founded in Turkey last year, just dropped a hoodie in a couple of colourways and a couple of snapback hats too. Very cool to see Derin’s brand expanding it’s range and offering a wider variety. You’re looking at $60 for a hoodie (limited to 70 pieces in each colour) and $35 for a snapback (limited to 50 pieces of each design). For the next two weeks you can get $5 off your order with the coupon code HIFIVE too, which is just lovely.

Anything Goes seem to have had a meteoric rise over the past year (and it has been exactly a year since they released their first design), let’s see what they’ve got for us in this collection:
The range consists of Daddy’s Girls tees in dark heather and navy, Axes & Arrows pocket tee in white, new colour-ways for our So Gangsta and Set Sail tees,
new colour-ways for our Day Of The Dead beanies, a brand new Set Sail hoodie printed on American Apparel two tone hoodies and two collaborations on jewellery
based on previous Anything Goes designs.
As I write this their store is currently down for maintenance in prep for the release, so I can’t give you any pricing info, but it certainly is a strong looking release.

Pretty big release over at atslopes. It’s surprising that no one has come up with the Obey connection before, but if they have I’ve never seen it.
