Ever since we unearthed our first Polizei Sommerblouson bomber jacket and dove down the rabbit hole to recreate it, we've run into that same French company over and over again. Vetements, a high fashion brand, also attempted to fashion-ize the Bundespolizei in a rather low-effort way by making a hoodie under their label and selling it for egregious prices. And it got even worse when it got on the second hand market: The hoodie in question can be seen all over the internet for $700 up to $2000. So we got to work.
We found the closest match we could to Sommerblouson's iconic Forstergrun, and added reflective "POLIZEI" lettering on the back just like the bomber & many other garments the German State Police used until the 2010s. On the front, a highly detailed fully embroidered berlin crest with our brand.
Who's the real Polizei fanatic now, runway-fashionista?
Specs
Our graphic tees & hoodies are custom printed in the USA with high quality custom blended inks or an advanced direct-to-garment printing process that ensures quality, lasting designs.
Garments may have a slight odor due to the nature of the printing process when brand new, and we always recommend washing before wearing.
The easiest way to ensure the print stays intact and vibrant is to turn them inside out, and machine wash them on cold. After that, simply tumble dry on low heat.
High quality, soft, and fits great. Was a bit big when I received it but shrank a little in the first wash. Been living in mine since I got it
Nice quality, but the branding on the front was unexpected.
I like the hoodie, don't get me wrong. I don't really like the fact that after just about a month, the reflective letters are starting to peel off the back. Some glue will probably fix it right up but I would've prefered not to have to.
Work at a bank, on my day off went in there to get cash and a coworker thought I was the police. Works as intended.
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my boss. He was so jealous of my Sommerblousen, and the fact that he can't get one. So I got him one of these. First, I didn't realize that the KS logo was fully embroidered onto the hoodie, I figured it would just be a patch. The shade of green is so close to the Sommerblousen, that my eyes can't tell the difference. And this is a WARM AND THICCC hoodie. Not some cut-rate cheapo crap.
