Big Dogs clothing has been around since 1983 but I never heard of it back then.  Five years ago I began going to the Myrtle Beach Bike Rally with my older brothers and I would see the Big Dog transporters with all their motorcycles.  So, I thought it was like the Harley Davidson's Hog competitor.  Then I noticed the t-shirts but still thought it was to advertise the motorcycle.  About two years later my brother and sister-in-law went to the mountains of NC for the Thanksgiving holidays and while there they brought me and several of the girls from church back some goodies.  Well, obviously they had gone to a Big Dogs store because everything was Big Dogs.  They brought us glow-in-the-dark Christmas t's, canvas totes and sweatshirts.  I got lucky because one of the sweatshirts was a youth size that didn't fit the girl they wanted to give it to so I got my sweatshirt (junior small) and the youth (12/14).

The sweatshirts are made from 75% cotton and 25% polyester excluding any design.  Caring for the sweatshirts is easy as 1-2-3:

  1. Mashine wash in cold water with like colors.
  2. Do not use bleach.
  3. Tumble dry on low.
  4. Warm iron as needed.

I'm a very cold-natured person because my body temperature is slightly lower than normal, my BP is low and I have a low BMI (Body Mass Index).  It's not unusual for me to be sporting a sweatshirt in June.  So when my family gave me the sweatshirts I was excited but I didn't realize just how much I would enjoy them.  

My pink sweatshirt that I saved from a laundry catastrophe has a wooly lining in the hood and both have the hand area.  These sweatshirts provide enough warmth for me that I've never had to layer with them.  They're casual but I can wear them at the office with either a denim/khaki skirt or with jeans on Friday. 

The Fun & Attitude Pullover Hoodies are just that.  You will either get a very sarcastic saying on the hoodie or a cute picture.  My pink one only has the words Big Dogs in large letters across the chest with flowers.  The youth one that was given to me says Angel With An Attitude (Don't Let the Halo Fool You).  I reviewed them as "All Sizes" because my brothers and nephews also wear them.  They are made the same no matter the gender or size.  The only difference is going to be the designs.  And my friends and I wear a lot of patterns that would be considered unisex designs.

They are a little pricey but worth it because they last a long time if you take care of them.  We get them at cheaper when we go to the Bike Rallys because then they do a discount when you buy more than one.  Get my two brothers, our friends and me shopping and we have enough to get a group discount.  If you buy them at the website www.bigdogs.com you are going to pay $57.99-64.99 depending on the size but for every one you purchase you get another 50% off and if you place an order for $100 or more you get free shipping.
