Can someone explain why JE uses cotton / poly blends in their grey sweatshirts and sweatpants? I don't doubt the quality as I've owned a pair of grey escos for a few years but just curious.
That's pretty standard for lots of brands. I've seen various brands do this even for T-shirts. Short answer is that it's just easier to achieve that color that way. It can be done with cotton as well, but it's a bit more complicated. I very much prefer 100% cotton construction and avoid polyester when possible.

So bummed! JE canceled my order for the vintage white Folsom tee in small. I guess their system wasn’t correct or something? Hoping the Thermal doesn’t get canceled.

That must be the case for all the Medium restock messages I get at 12:01am every night.

Yeah makes sense. Reason I asked this is ALD just switched to a 75/25 cotton poly blend on their grey uniform hoodie this season, which I didn't realize. With JE using poly blends as well I figured someone in this thread would know

My girl in a candid photo of that infamous bomber that really pissed me off. She just got off work and excuse the mess, it was a bday/Halloween party.

As a homeowner, the zipper and country of origin on the bomber is by far the least painful part of this picture. That yard, or what’s left of it, could use some immediate attention.

Haha I think the pic doesn’t help. Yea the grass could be better but we have a big tree yielding lots of shade and a couple of dogs plus a lot of dogs that visit and are wrestling/running all over the place.
Idk if these pics help paint a better or worse picture hehe


Does she know how much you despise it?
I don’t despise it I despise paying for what I expected then not getting it but no, I just let her enjoy it.
