It's not my cup of tea but if you like it, wear it.

It’s a 10/10 hoodie so for comfort - yes.
What’s your overall image? Are you going to look like you mugged a GenZ? If so maybe go for one of the more discrete styles they offer. If it suits your overall image, then style it.

I never wear anything with logos. Im not paying good money to advertise a big companies products for them.

Wear what you like. It’s one thing you can absolutely do.

@JustMyView13 I would wear it with gym leggings or some loose fitting trousers I have .. for a casual running 'around town doing errands' look

am I too old to wear one ? is it a bit young ?

I wear them and im 50!

Ineedanewsofa · 13/11/2025 09:15

I see them everywhere online but have never seen anyone wearing one in real life so I don’t associate them with a particular age group - if you like it wear it 😊

Whst does this brand of hoodie have that others don't?

I'm in the no logos camp TBH.

I’ve been known to pinch my daughter’s white fox hoodie. I think it’s fine if you’re happy wearing it. They do look very snuggly

They are the most comfortable hoodies I’ve ever owned - (I’m 45)
I have a couple of hoodies and a sweatshirt, plus some joggers, very warm too!

Absolutely not. That’s how everyone styles them - you’ll style it just fine! Buy - they’re sooo comfy.

I have just googled tham and like the look of them, but they would have to pay me to advertise their company. That's why I never bought a Gap sweatshirt either.

I wouldnt because I hate hoods on clothes (they never seem to sit right for me) but its just a mundane, everyday clothing item....why wouldnt you wear it?

(just once Id like to read one of these threads with abit of 'heft' to it.
So instead of 'hey, Im a slightly older woman, can I wear this totally normal item of clothing' we got 'hey, is 85 too old for a crotchless fishnet body stocking?')
😂
