Hoodie Poll!!!

Since the hoodies were such a success last year we were thinking about doing them again. There is just one small change we are considering, the color.
Here is everyone's chance to voice their opinion for one week before we order them.

Which do you want?

Black w/ White Printing Again?
Back

Front

or

Gray w/ Black Printing? The gray we are looking to use will be darker than the T-shirts we put out a while ago.

This is the color we are shooting for with the gray hoodies. Maybe not exact, but pretty close to this:

Same as last year for several reasons...Black on grey will be hard to read, I never got the old hoodie.

How about red on black for a change? I think that'd look pretty sweet.

Go with the gray. I dont think the black held up as well as it should have. Maybe it was the quality of the sweatshirt? IDK. I didnt wear mine all the time but its been a year and it looks like its 15 years old. New year.....new color......change is always good Depending on the shade of gray I would debate the print color. If its a dark color gray then you might have issues with seeing the print.....so maybe another color with the font. Light gray....not a fan of...it gets dirty way to easy!! Hopefully I was of some assistance with my opinion

with how small the print is in the logo i woudl have to wonder if having a fairly dark color like red on a black hoodie would lose a lot of the detail. balck and red is a cool look, jsut wonder if it will print well

red on black would be more expensive to screen print. The logos would have to be printed white, and the red would have to go over the white in order for it to show. Red over black by itself wouldn't show bright enough.

I like the white on black personally.

the sizes will be small through XXXL. pricing will have to wait until we actually get them printed. last year they were $35 i believe.

We want to make sure that we keep everyone covered

Plus the hoodies that we had before ran small. I'm 6'4" / 230ish and I had to get a XXL to fit me.

that was the same issue jsutin had last year. just have to order a size up from what you normally wear.

btw, i voted gray w/black print because i woudl like to see something new. we already did the black ones, time for a fresh look

That's the reason I had to go with a XXL....it fit me fine around my gut, but the sleeves on the XL were too short.

We might be going with a different (better) brand of hoodies this year, but we'll let you know before we start accepting orders for them.

One club.

One logo.

One color scheme.

You start mixing things and well look all ate up, like some half assed club that can't make up its mind about who they are. We set the black with white letting, stick to it, unless you want to pull out the black hoodies in a few years and tell stories about how when you were a kid inthe early days of NJFBOA....

White lettering, black hoodie.

zippered hoodie FTW! they tend to be longer and i need it because my torso is longer than most. whenever i order a shirt/jacket/coat it's always XLT, the 't' stands for 'tall'. and the 'tall' shirt/jacket/coat almost always has longer arms (sometimes i have to cuff the sleeve). if 'tall' isn't available, then i go with XXL.

as for color, i voted for gray. the shirt i have is gray and the hoodie will match it.

Even like fire engine red?

I never thought of the unity/nostalgia aspect of it, so I'd stick to black/white like I said before.
