Sweatshirts (Hoodies, Crewnecks, Loopwheeled, Vintage, etc.)

Large would fit me a tad roomy so I assumi it would fit you. Thing is, it wil eventually shrink and then it won't fit. I would just go with the W&H then.
-
Well I guess I'll find out soon. Ordered two W+H hoodies last night.
-
Sleeve length is good, too, which is important to me. I hate sleeves that can't make it past my wrists. I also like loose fitting hoodies, so I generally buy the largest size possible. I'd say get your usual size if you want a cleaner fit, size up to get a loose on

Has anyone tried one of these yet? 18 oz, tight weave, 10 year guarantee. Wondering how it stacks up to others mentioned here. http://www.flintandtinderusa.com/mens-shop/hoodie

Well, I just got my first really nice sweatshirt (IHSW-10)… so now that I know how wonderful sweatshirts can be I’m wondering what else is out there…
Basically what I am looking for is very thick fluffy sweatshirts that would be about as soft or softer than my IHSW-10.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Strike Gold makes a killer fleece. It's a bit different than IH, a bit more rigid but extremely heavy and soft.

Thanks guys!
I’ve been looking at these brands and I defiantly see these sweatshirts in my future…I have also recently found a sweatshirt that looks pretty nice it’s called Joe McCoy (related to real mccoy?). There is new sweat in my size at a pretty good savings ($165) I’m looking at… The seller who is also selling a couple of strike gold sweats says: “I owned and have owned every brand of loop wheeled sweatshirts, buzz rickson, strike gold, dubbleworks, deluxe ware, cushman, whitesville, two moons, samurai, full count, Phigvel, beams Plus, etc…etc.. None of the above compare in terms of weight, feel, construction, of the Joe Mccoy Ballpark sweatshirt.”
Not sure how good this one really is so I just thought I’d ask you good folks. Ever heard of Joe McCoy 12oz Ballpark sweatshirt?

Joe mccoy ballpark belongs to the real mccoy's. Look over in the real mccoys thread. Very nice heavyweight fabric, deadstock talon zipper on the hoodie etc. quality and attention to details are outstanding.

Flash also wears his ballpark hoodie in the waywt thread in other brands
The Ballpark heavyweight crewneck Sweatshirt itself is great too look over in the RMC thread you'll see some pics there too.

I am curious to hear a comparison between the Joe McCoy's Ballpark sweats vs. the Iron Heart Loopwheeled sweats. I've never experienced the McCoy, but the IHs are fantastic and I can't imagine the McCoys being any better. There are lots of people that say McCoy makes some of the best sweats around, so if anyone has experience with both, I would love to hear impressions. Thanks, in advance.
BTW, both of those look great, davito.

Just to make sure: Ballpark sweatshirts are supreme, heavyweight sweatshirts, but they are not "loopwheeled" - also, Real McCoy/Joe McCoy never claimed that they are.
However, a recent addition to the Joe McCoy line is "loopwheeled" - they don't go by the Ballpark label and they are not heavyweight…Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
