just look at this if they would of added the crown instead of the wierd J

i disagree with putting the J crown on that hoodie.  I personally think that the J they have on the aristocrat looks better on that hoodie.  although, they should use the J crown more.

^if the big J crown were on a crewneck, that would be soo sick.  Just one huge J crown on the front that covers the whole front of the crew.  i would buy that in an instant. 
if they did black with a huge gold J crown crewneck, that would be amazing.

I think the old J is sicker than the new J, but whatever.
And yeah a Crewneck with an oversized, old J that covered the entire front would be sick

I agree.  Which is why I got a vest this year.  It was the closest thing to that as possible.  That J-Crown logo is dope.  The key logo is also sick.

not to rag on anyone cuz i know jiberish is expensive, but i think sometimes people fail to realize how incredibly graphic intensive and costly the production of some of those sweatshirts and crews are. sure, theres the simpler ones like the morado, but pieces like the jungle cat? holy crap.
jiberish pays attention to the small details which is part of what makes their stuff so sick.
ID tape, external labels, really nice polyester ribbing, etc.

Every piece of jiberish is a cut-n-sew, because they've custom made their own patterns over the years.
many other companies buy sweatshirts in bulk and produce from there. each jiberish piece is made for them.

i belive, someone correct me if im wrong on the number but the jungle cat has like 10 applique patches on it. originally, they had more planned but it would've made the sweatshirt crazy expensive. not only that, but the graphic alone on that hoodie is extremely difficult to make. that sweatshirt is 110 for a reason, not so that jiberish can make a ton of money on it, but because it actually costs so much to produce.
I've talked with pete and they pretty much lose money by selling the jungle cat, but when him and a couple of the guys saw the design they decided it was too sick not to produce.

for sure it sucks that its all so expensive, and i wish i could afford more of it too, but realize theres a reason behind the high prices, and jiberish as a brand really doesn't rake in as much cash as you may think they do.

Sparknotes: Jiberish is so expensive because it costs them so much to produce it.

They could make more of each product. It's a little too limited. Limited is good but not to the extent they do it.

i disagree. It being that limited is what makes it so cool. You just have to be on your game to get it which means only people who really like it and want it will be getting it.

Yeah i ordered one item. But like its a little unfair because I would have bought more I just didn't have the money. And the sizing this years whack. People will have the same crew same size and they will be a dif length. WTF is up with that.

I agree with Tom. Doesn't look that great with the jcrown. Here a better done verison. The jkey thing they have on it now looks way better for that style of hoodie.

I dont want to come off as sopunding arrogant or mean but they must be doing something right for their brand and line up increasing every year.  Im sure they have a business model, and a future plan in mind.  It is their business, they probably run it the way they want to.  Come up with you own clothing company and you may have different strategies to penetrate an already over crowded market.  I think jiberish is doing great things and setting themselves apart from most "clothing companies".
