Whilst we’re browsing the
80s Purple store, I thought I’d point you towards this
hoodie. If you’re a really old school reader of HYA then you might remember me posting this hoodie in
2006 and
2007. The posts still get a surprisingly large amount of hits (usually from spammers), but its no longer on
sale at the buy links on the old posts, so I thought I’d post this new link as 80s Purple still have stock, and because its still a pretty cool hoodie, the bullet on the zipper is a great touch. Oh, and its fake fur, in case you were wondering. I know that celebritee day has been and gone, but in the gallery there is a picture of Jessica Alba wearing this hoodie, which is, y’know, a thing.

See guys, I told you that I liked funnel
hoodies!I’m not actually all that excited by the pattern on this piece, it kind of looks like you’ve already had it for years when you first get the parcel, and the way that they’ve tried to match up the two sides going across the zip is pretty lame, but for some reason I still like it overall. Possibly because if I were going to be a bandit, I probably would own an old
hoodie, and I’d probably be too busy dealing with bandit related business to be concerned with the pattern not lining up across the zipper.

Cars and guns, now that’s a recipe for success!
There’s something totally 80s about the way that they’ve got a blue to pink fade going on with the print, which I guess makes sense considering Cardboard Robot’s inspiration comes from the most 80s-tastic version of the Grand Theft Auto series.

Today’s item is very much out of the ordinary, and I applaud that whole-heartedly, I’m not going to post something just because it’s different, but there is something unique about this piece so I feel it deserves an airing on my corner of webspace.
Cardboard Robot has been rather bold and added fur to a hoody, not a jacket, it looks like a regular cotton zip-up hoody but then they go an confuse me by adding fur (faux, probably, hopefully?).
The design on the front is is realy nice too, spanning quite a lot of the front but still being quite understated.
I’ve just noticed something esle, is that a rifle bullet on the zipper, if it is then golly-gosh, that’s an excellent item of clothing. Also, it’s for girls, see, I’m trying to get the balance back.
