It's 2021 and we've all been trapped indoors. Time to reward ourselves with a hoodie!
Each hoodie will be:
Each hoodie will be:
- Embroidered on the left chest with the Island Judo logo in white/red thread.
Screenprinted center back with the Island Judo logo, website and phone number in white/red inks.
Optional: right chest can be embroidered with your name in white thread. There may be the possibility of putting either Kokushikai or Shidokai above the unique name but this has not yet been decided.
Selecting the hoodie images below will take you to the vendor page where they are purchased so you can see the color choices to choose from. These should open in a new window and will be best read from a desktop computer although it also worked fine from sensei's tablet. The vendor page will also list the available sizes for each style - Gildan goes up to 5XL.
Things To Know
Things To Know
- Pricing below is for sizes S-XL only. If you need a bigger hoodie, please add $2.50 for each size ordered above XL.
- Pricing includes the taxes.
- As the hoodies will be embellished with white/red inks and threads, this will look best on medium to dark garment colors. A lighter color hoodie will not display the white ink/thread very well so please keep that in mind. A red hoodie may or may not work well as the garment color may be too close the red ink used to show nicely. Sensei will get a digital proof from the printing company with all garment colors chosen with artwork imposed so if your garment color doesn't show well, he will be in contact to discuss it with you with the option to change it before ordering.
- While the Gildan and ATC brand hoodies are fairly comparable to each other and are sold at the same price, the ATC line is slightly better. There are metal grommets for the drawstrings, the ribbing seems bit denser, the arms are a bit longer and the whole feel of the fleece is a bit softer. Gildan however has wider color and sizing choices.
- The Gildan brand hoodies are in flux at the vendors and are getting harder to obtain. When making your color selections, please look closely at the color swatches - if an asterisk * is in the swatch, that indicates the color is currently only available in case lots of 72 and are not sold individually.
- There is no guarantee on inventory - some colors in some sizes will simply not be available. Please have a secondary color choice picked out in case your first color can't be ordered.
- The standard hoodies are 13oz weight, 50/50 cotton polyester blend and have round drawstrings.
- The premium hoodies are 15.7oz weight 75/25 cotton polyester blend, have flat ties and zip higher on the neck for more protection. They are noticeably softer than the standard hoodies.
- The Independent brand Sherpa Hoodie is lightweight at 12.5oz 70/30 cotton polyester blend but is incredibly warm. It fits fairly tightly to the body (what is know as "fashion fit"). The right front pocket features an additional interior pocket for a standard cellphone with a buttonhole/grommet that punches through the interior layers to feed your audio headset wires if you want to tuck them inside the jacket. There are flat drawstrings in two colors and thumb-hole slits at the cuffs.
