Hooded Self-Expression

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Unique Sweatshirts to Hide and Define Your Identity

— November 8, 2008 — Fashion
Come on, admit it: This Batman hooded sweatshirt is one of the best hooded tops you have ever seen. It based on the original gray Caped Crusader Bat-suit, with a hood that features Batman's ears on its exterior and a drop-down mask on its interior that can be folded or kept under the hood.

Also featured is 'Marioflage' and the ever-awesome Stormtrooper top. It seems to be that this is the domain of geeks with all the retro gaming ones making appearances in this selection as well.
