Damn, if only I could afford those...what's a poor man's option? Stan Smith 2's? Sigh. I was thinking about stretching my meager finances for some sperry x band of outsiders... e.g.

Well you know, it's clearly important to take care of your teeth so getting a plebe toothbrush just won't do. kop the oral-b, son!

I thought the point was to compare it to whats out there and hear people's opinions? By your logic you can just say, its just a shirt, its just a pair of jeans, its just etc?

Only noobs ask about ridiculously average items. Dude, it's a ******* hoodie. You're not dressing to impress in a hoodie. Stop trying to rationalize your dumb question. Despite what people say, there are stupid questions, and yours was among them.

It's a terry lined thick ass hoodie that I can wear as outerwear in the spring, so I guess I'd be rocking it a lot and its on the higher end of cost, so I'm asking whether its worth it to get that one or cop a cheaper w+h or whatever other basic brand. Could have just said yes/no in response initially?

what do you want to hear? its a grey hoodie. if you want to compare between two items then put up a comparison of should i get this one or this one ... but putting up a VERY generic piece such as a non-descript hoodie can't garner any discussion. the only thing "semi" diff about the hoodie is the elbow/arm patch. so unless you want people to tell you dont wear hoodies or dont wear grey wear blue, its a pointless question edit: well the hoodie your posting is very similar to w+h or reigning champ and you answered your own question that you will wear it alot since its thick and can be worn as straight up outerwear for spring, so do it. does the w+h accomplish the same aesthetic? yes. is it as thick as the one your posting? no. do you need it to be?!?!?! ... only you can answer

Shut the **** up Nahneun.

That Rag & Bone hoodie is nice, probably one of the nicest I've seen, but at $200 not the bloated msrp it's listed at. Buy a W+H hoodie that's undoubtedly as high or higher quality, and then come back at sale time to try and get it on sale. You'll have two great hoodies for the price of that one if you can do that successfully.
