Would EVGA be willing to make a new hoodie if enough members show interest or preorder one? EVGA could make a few designs for members to choose from before placing a preorder, give members the options to choose between zip-up or pullover type hoodie.

while i like the idea,i have to mention the price will be all wrong...as it is the Polo shirt is 45!!! Sorry but thats a insane price Especially since it has so little embroidery work or screen print being done. I could go to the gap and buy one for less and make my own sadly . If they do it im going to guess a 74.99 price tag ,and thats just insulting .

If the price was good, I would be on board. I would order a shirt but anything I put in my cart that is small like that ends up being crazy expensive and I am only a couple hours away.

I shop at walmart for clothes, which mainly consists of basketball shorts because I live in Louisiana. lol
At the same time they do have to make a profit in order for it to be worth it to them.
You figure to order polo shirts, say a bulk discount, $10-15 a piece. Then to have a embroidery made is another $5-10. Factor in the shipping and then the overhead and what not. So yea at $45 they're likely making $20 off the shirt but once you figure the process it wouldn't be worth it to them if they were only making $5-10 off it.

EVGA already has some stuff here: http://www.zazzle.com/teamevga/gifts which will give you a pretty good idea of the prices we would be facing, I would think. :(
Yea the hoodie prices there aren't terrible. I don't agree with the regular t-shirt price though. No way that should cost anywhere near as much as the hoodie. That shirt should be no more than $19.95

Actually I know they have sites to where you can create your own design and then it'll be for sale. I've seen this with some shirts.
We would have to get a few people together though. However, I won't be one of them as I haven't worn a sweatshirt in 10+ years lol.

I would buy one if it had this poster picture on it. And yeah Bio you are right it does cost around $75 for a hoodie. Generally the $55-80 price range. This Assassin's Creed hoodie cost $180. Lets not forget shipping and handling plus tax.

just a quick google search later...ya even XXL is 9.35 per hoodie (8.35 all other sizes ) when bought in bulk of at ONLY 12 ! Not to mention i would bet evga would get even a better deal..so ya ... +9 per Hoodie +5-10 for Embroidery work per hoodie is VERY generous when in bulk deals +5 (a generous number im sure) shipping 19.00 (hell round it to 20.00) to the possible selling point....sorry but that 50-75 sell point is a serious price gouge with a HUGE % profit. If they are going to do these things they need to cut back the profit margin to a point where buying them is viable to make a profit and not be stuck with stock. At anything above 45(shipped)imo its a insult and doomed to fail And at that point its still about 40% profit per item. They cant expect to sell clothing at the same insane markup prices of in demand GPU's and custom Mobo's .

After looking at few pictures of hoodies received by other customers of zazzle, it looks like the hoodie is thin, like the ones you see at walmart that cost $8-10. I could be wrong, it hard tell 100% without seeing/touching one in person. HAZMAN_THE_GREAT

Yeah it does say that but they deceive us because its a hoodie with an overall vest on top of it. When the sellers say jacket the price skyrockets up. Look at this one Msim. It has a zipper like a jacket but its still a hoodie.

Have that poster hanging above my bed. Would be pretty sweet on the back of a sweatshirt.

that doesn't seem like Official EVGA merch. The EVGA polos are Nike branded so the price doesn't surprise me.

Yeah if they're Nike branded I'm surprised they aren't more actually. I wear Nike polos on a daily basis and they can run well upwards of $50 each usually.

Nike, Reebok. All the same really. At that point you're simply paying for the logo/name.

Assassin creed is a jacket not a hoodie.
Not surprised being its only 10 bux more than the t-shirts, lol. T-shirt with a hood essentially, I guess. @Neocrisis.... I don't know for sure if its EVGA themselves but if its someone else they would at least have to get the ok in writing to use evga's trademarks, concept art etc... and sell it. Of course, at that point im sure EVGA would want their share of that profit, which I cant really blame them.

Still waiting on the hoodies since..........
T hose who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way. Affiliate Code: 3T15O1S07G

$45-65 if they use a quality hoodie and have a nice design on it, not just a big EVGA across it. Make a custom design like they on the shirts from few years ago, not the new ugly EGC design they use on the mouse pads.

We had hoodies made last year for the Quakecon senior staff. We had Quakecon and our handles embroidered on them. it was about $50/person.
The problem with the hoodies you want is that it would be a screen print with multiple colors which add way up.
