we're melting. it's 38 degrees C here in adelaide at the mo but for some reason i'm thinking ahead for winter and am about to purchase the original ableton black hoodie.

so fellow fanboys/girls (I know some of you here will have one) have they always only offered size M or XXL only?

Buy a plain black hoodie, then have the logo put on it by a print or embroider shop. I will be cheaper that way.

you can also buy a plain black hoodie, cut up a carboard stencil and use fabric paint too.

My mate bought an official ableton hoodie and have to say that the quality is not good.

Tranfers look ok but it shrinks and miss-shapes in the wash. Must be Primart/Wamart/Peacocks reject/seconds.

Not fruit of the loom by any stretch......

think ableton went for the cheapest option. expect more for 39 euros.

Not a good product, makes you wonder about the rest of them.

Anyone bought the stickers and manual?

perhaps some ableton y-fronts are in order?

every hoodie I've seen has bee a nice quality stitched logo hoodie, no iron on stuff, embroidered bars that raise up off the hoodie. it's just big enough to wash my car with.

I don't think all the posters are in their closets because they're recording vocals.

I'm still in shock over how much CRAP Fruity Loops offers, they even sell FL underwear!

My experience is a bit different I guess, I got the hoodie too, and mine's excellent quality, much better than I was expecting to be honest. I have a whole closet full of hoodies, and my Ableton one is by far the best made. Maybe they used different vendors now? Mine's about 2-3 years old I think, and it looks beat to hell now ;) I must have worn that thing a few hundred times easy.

Yes, but does it do real sound on sound overdubbing?

yeh, when I washed my manual it got all miss-shapen too - I haven't washed my stickers yet, but after hearing this I think it might be a bad idea

Try using Radion & always read the label
