Also, they are harder to make with large prints on the front because there's a zip, and they're split into two halves! The two halves have to be lined up perfectly during printing - otherwise there's a mismatch in the final design - and that's really tricky to do with clothing because the material moves and is stretchy. Also the final design often looks a bit s**t when there's a zip running up the middle of it.

That's why most merch has a single, smaller design - usually on the left breast - on zip up hoodies.
Be that as it may, the Sisters are the only band that I've seen in the last twenty years that haven't had a zip hoodie. Is Von just being churlish on purpose..

.. ah.

As you were.

I still think a Sissies zip with just head and star, no writing, or new very plain head and half a star no cogs 2020 tour style on breast pocket would work, due to plain classic designs.

Let's deal with HL first.

Was hoping for a PROWY too, but I'm not grumbling, it looks nice, so I'll treat myself to an early birthday present.

Β£52?

Is the zip made of solid gold?

Heh. It is a bit on the dear side but I figured that since there's very little likelihood of a tour this year, a Christmas present to myself was justified! :wink:

Yeah, I much prefer a pullover one, but this one looks pretty swish... I'm particularly taken with the sleeve logo.

I'd prefer a pullover one with no hood.

Not really. Just a regular fleece thing would be great :)

Really sorry, but that new official hoody just looks way too 'busy' for me - quite ironic really. Holding out for the fabled Forum zipped hoody now I think
