I am constantly looking for hoodies, and sometimes find other stuff along the way.
Nicholas K has been around a while, but they really started catching my eye in FW06. The cuts are more generous (the brother is the model on the site, and he is not a small guy,) which means that at 5'11" and 152 lbs, I wear a small in many styles. I really like the muted pallette, including the washed out French terry hoodies in brighter colors that are made wearable by having a soft, garment washed treatment. Not really cheap (hoodies are $225+), but there are tons of details on the pieces. lots of zip off (or snap off) hoodies, snap button closers, etc... Peasant had some pieces, as does Caravan in NYC (www.shopcaravan.com) and NewDandyism (www.newdandyism.com). Great outerwear as well.

I also really like Helmet of the Will hoodies ( www.helmetwill.com ) Active Endeavors (cough cough) carries their hoodies online, but Steven Alan and Uncle Otis have them as well (Otis has the best prices, even better than Active, at $180CDN). The hoodies are really well made, with great details like three piece hoods, and ribbed inserts on the hood (middle piece of hood is actually ribbed) and shoulder) as well at on the hem, side, and cuffs. Brand new brand started by an ex-Rogan designer. Brian tells me that he is getting the hoodies for fall.
