Was debating American Giant or Reigning Champ, but AG has much more choice in color. Would love a double zip, but that seems rare in this realm for some reason, even though it's pretty common for fleece. Any other brands worth a look? The absurd number of panels Flint and Tinder use and their Bieberesque model turn me off of theirs.
Persimmon AG seems like a winner unless someone knows of something swankier. The N&F ones seem good, but colors are pretty drab.

My vote goes to American Giant. I don't own a Reigning Champ or a F and T so I can't comment on those, but I can tell you that the fit and quality of the American Giant Heavyweight full zip hoodies are excellent.

my vote goes to Reigning Champ, but only if you can get them on discount. As much as I love the fit and quality of RC, I wouldn't have paid full retail for my tiger fleece crewneck or full zip hoodie. Unfortunately, I think most online retailers have already cleared out their old 2014 stock to make room for the RC SS15 line. J Crew also sells some stuff by RC, so that may be worth looking into for a discount.
It sounds like you'll have to narrow your choices down based on preference, such as cost, colors available and style. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.

are hoodies something you would wear (apart from jogging or Halloween ...) after you reached 22?

Oh yeah, that's the original windup, isn't it? Yes, a really heavy hoody with shorts and flip flops. Nubby Adidas ones.

I don't do flip flops, but I do wear hoodies with pretty much everything. Denim, chinos, shorts, swimming trunks, sweatpants..I also pretty much wear any type of footwear with any type of bottom. I was rockin grey sweat pants and my bourbon Mora 2.0s the other day.

it's always good fun to read the extreme negative reviews in imdb on movies I love, like this one:
Why this cult around the character of "The Dude", one of the blandest, flavorless, most uninteresting comedy protagonists ever to be put on celluloid? He's simply some dopey hippie who loves to hang around ...

the guy summed it up correctly, but didn't get it .... at the end of the day most of us (definitively including myself) are just "hanging around" (those realising it, can have a good laugh with the Dude) .... perhaps a bit better dressed (at least the ones not wearing hoodies, shorts or flip-flops )
