A tip ‘o the hat to Notcot once again for finding the tee version of this hoodie (though I have also seen it featured on this excellent shirtspotting post), but I figured that since HYA is meant to be a sleeved clothing blog I’d mention the long sleeved version, even if you don’t often find yourself wearing them all that much during these sunny summer months.The tee version is pretty much the same, except the background colour is white and the pack of foxes (I think wolfsrudel means ‘wolf’ but they look more like foxes to me) remain a dark grey, but to me is makes more sense to have a dark base colour because then the print blends in a bit, which adds to the traditional sneakiness of the foxes, although I doubt many animals can maintain their sneakiness when they smell a kill. It’s nice to see Marthuba making use of the funnel collar as well. I guess that me posting an item from a Swiss company is a good way for me to prove that I’m not at all bitter about England not being in Euro 2008… not bitter at all…

Costiness=89 Swiss France (almost exactly US$89) Link

… and apparently the Swiss are also quite adept at designing cool clothes, if the selection available at plus41 is anything to go by.

We also may well have found someone that ties with me as hottest product model in the history of HYA. Yeah, your right, she ain’t got nuffin on me.

This hoodie (that doesn’t seem to have a traditional hood) is actually more clever than I orginally gave it credit, I thought it was just a selection of geometric blocks, kinda like tetris with angles. But upon closer inspection I can see a bear, a dog, a bird, and a Swiss cross, there’s probably a load more that I haven’t seen too. Oh, and the print begins (or ends) in one of the kangaroo pouches, super nice.

Costiness=€75, from here.

*Just noticed that the design is called Tangram Animals, guess the bear shouldn’t have been much of a surprise afterall.*
