Hoodfixed

Tossing out your favorite piece of broken-in clothing's like putting your child in the ground, but at this point that tattered "Amateur Gynecologist" T exposes your gut along with your medical ambitions. Reincarnate your threadbare treasures as a custom hoodie from Hoodfixed.

Thrillist - HoodfixedHF is run by Paris-trained Zoe Brent, a hoodie-making Dr. Frankenstein who uses Hogan-proof double stitching to reincorporate the cherished bits of your now unwearable wardrobe into an unstoppable new creation. Send her your Cub Scout uni, Little League jersey, whatever, and she'll snip and applique until you have a unique reminder of your generic American childhood. To up the luxury quotient, Brent can also line the hood and pockets of your sweatshirt with, say, the silk shirt you wore to prom--provided she doesn't choke on the toxic cloud of Eternity that clings to it even now. She can also push the outer limits by turning two hoodies into one reversible super hoodie, or by adding zippers, a collar, custom embroidery, and secret pockets -- plus, she can adjust the sleeves/length/neck-size, in case your secret pockets were holding HGH/Trim Spa.

This is a one-woman operation, so hit up Hoodfixed now. Before you know it, your Crüe concert shirt will rise like a hooded phoenix, even as your hope of someday becoming Dr. Feelgood comes apart at the seams.

Basic hoodie-jobs start at $50. Get your hoodie on at Hoodfixed.com
