leroy jenkins bite

[ice grillz]

i can't afford to cop leroy at the moment due to not having a job and credit card bills stacking up, so i decided to make one.
if i remember correctly, there was another dude on here that made one himself, too.

[Corn]

can u give tips how to make to us poor guys ? :D:rolleyes:

[Hendriks]

Look good man, wanna make me one too?

[C to the J L]

lemme ask you something..how much total did it make you to put that together..

[Young_Gav]

so theres no way i could buy this one that you have on or you could make one for some serious cash?

[dblockdosmil]

damn thats looks very professional nice work...............idk 4 some reason i think he's runnin a sweatshop in his basement..........

[ice grillz]

can u give tips how to make to us poor guys ? :D:rolleyes:


i am not good at explaining things, but i will just summarize what i did.

1. go to local art stores like joann's fabric , hancocks , international fabrics..etc.
2. pick out 2 fabrics (both outside and for lining)about 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 yds depending on how big your hoodie is going to be. i am a size small, so i only needed about 2 1/2 yds. remember, it's better to have more than have less, so i recommend buying more than what you are going to use, because i made few mistakes along the way and had to go out and buy more.
3. don't be stingy with zippers. more $ you put down, better quality. i used YKK reversible. doesn't work smooth, but they were the only kind they had.
(useful hint; in order to make your zipper move more smooth, zip your zipper then go over the zipper with wax.)
4. patterns; you can browse and buy one at the store or you can be cheap and just wing it. i basically found a hoodie that i wear all the time and basically used it to trace out the patterns on my fabrics. it's a bit tricky and complicated, but this way i get the hoodie exact size i want it and i don't have to spend $6.99 on a pattern sheet. remember to trace on both outside and lining. they do not have to be perfectly cut but the more they align, easier for you to sew later. (remember; you are not dealing with fleece. if you are doing floral print or any other fabric other than fleece, polyester, etc, they will not stretch, so i suggest when you cut out the patterns, you want to give enough space. otherwise, you will feel uncomfortable wearing it.)
5. cut out the pattern you have traced.
6. sew the outer fabric to your lining with sleeves, hood, jacket.
7. attach sleeves and hood to your jacket.
8. with the hoodie you have bought at a thrift store for $.99, cut out the arm bands and a waistband nicely with a razor.
9. sew arm bands and waist band to your jacket.
10. attach zipper.



materials for my project;

3 yds of black floral print - $6
3 yds of soft pink lining - $6
24" YKK reversible zipper - $3.69
hoodie from a thrift store - $.99
pre cutout armbands - $2.99

total cost = $19.67 + 8% tx tax
labor = about 8 hours because i suck at sewing and i have massive add.


thanks for all the comments and i hope this helped a little.

[dblockdosmil]

damn is this your first time cuting and sewing?

[ice grillz]

yeah, i could make more and make $$$, but i don't like the idea of making floral prints and keep biting leroy not for myself but to sell.

it only took me under $20 + gas fee to make this because it was my first project and didn't want to spend too much, but in the future, id like to make one with silk lining so it would feel smooth inside when i wear.

and because i did not use fleece, the hoodie is really light so i can even wear them during day time in texas.

[ultra_Vitalence!!!]

can you post closer pictures of the ribbing, i dont understand how you hid the seams sewing them on last.. the way you presented the steps wouldnt work.

[AfrocentricAsian]

yo that looks freshh. i know u dont wanna sell. but if you ever re-consider. hit me up. ill pay $$$ for a hoodie like that.

[ZOKU]

*nod* Damn, it looks sweet, dude...

[nigglesnsf]

does it have pockets?

[dblockdosmil]

lol i think not, good thing we have pants

[ice grillz]

i may have written down the steps wrong but if i understood your question correctly, i have sewn the sleeves, the hood, waist band...etc so that it looks clean from looking from the outside and inside. you won't see any messy threads popping out. my mom does a lot of sewing and she taught me how.

yes, if you look closely at the first picture, there are pockets.
see the pattern? they don't quite match because there are pockets.

like i said i have not thought about making more for $. i simply made one because i am poor and i have a lot of time on my hand. if i do decide to make some, i know i won't rape any of you with heavy $. this was my first ever hoodie and there are few flaws that i need to fix. i will keep working on it til i am satisfied with it then i will start selling.

i can make some now and sell, but i would not feel good about selling something that i thought wasn't perfect.

[danegerous]

you did a real nice job, bro. You could walk around and people wouldn't even know it wasn't Leroy...you may have just put em outta business. Fake leroy's, here we come!

[nigglesnsf]

true, what machine do you use? cause i wanna do my own cut and sew hoodies in 2 or 3 months...but for now i've just been drawing up concepts and stuff....

[tomxkaws]

nice job. very impressed

[Diamond]

It's cool that you took the time to make the hoodie and all, but tryin to sell them is not very cool:stoneface: . Come up with your own idea or hoodie concept and sell that.... Biting what someone else has done and selling it is just plain wrong.
Hahaha.... U might as well make some Hundreds or Bape screens and print your own shirts. I smell a future bootlegger in the making.
Next thing you know this kid is gonna start his own factory in china and start making fake Nikes. Get the fuck outta here!:thumbsdown:

[M.E.M.P.H.I.S]

You guys are retards. How can you tell if that shit looks professional? You can't.

And don't even try to front on me like I'm just hating to hate. That's a given'. I'm just telling it like it is, because I've sewn enough shit to know what you can 'hide' from the eye, especially with a lo-res image taken from six feet away.

[jaywalkent]

tha dude that made it even said it was nowhere near perfect and he wouldnt start sellin until he perfected...so whats tha big deal hes not trynna pass this off as professional hes jus showin his work, good work by the way

[ice grillz]

diamond,

like i said on my first post, i wasn't going to bootleg leroy or anyone for that matter. i simply made one for myself and myself only but when people asked i was thinking about making some for them for very little $. hell, i'd make em for material cost + shipping. this way, i'd get a lot of practice on my cutting and sewing which will only benefit me.


and memphis, you are right. i still have a lot of flaws with my hoodie but it's my first one and hopefully it will only get better from now on.
thanks for your feedback.


again, i appreciate all the + / - comments.
it's been really helpful.

[nextup85]

Forget them man, you should start selling these IMO the materials used are better than the Leroy Jenkins ones, yall act like Leroy Jenkins is a real brand them dudes are just making custom hoodies using fabric its not such a big deal. Plus they wanna overcharge cats $250 a hoodie when ice grillz just told us it dont cost more than $30 to make one.Diamond, I know your cool with those dudes and the tiffany dunks are dope, but your sounding like a hater right now :thumbsdown: :rofl:

[ackbar]

dead that hater shit. diamond is right.

homeboy stole their idea and is now up here trying to sell bootleg hoodies.
take heed of your avatar. shark *****z.

[SayWord]

Yo Shut the fuck up, dude ain't trying to sell bootleg hoodies, that wasn't the purpose of this shit. Who said he would Just do Floral Prints anyway? Stop fucking hating in 06 and give the man his just do. I bet you couldn't do some shit like that. Jealous hating ass mufuckas.

props on that shit, Can we get some better qualty pics?

[lilkrnjasheekx]

verry nice job. u seem pretty legit with not wanting to sell your warez and all..

[ackbar]

the word "hating" should be banned from this board until y'all figure out the definition.

the kid said he made a leroy jenkins biten copycat hoodie...then he said he would start selling them. wtf are you reading?

lol @ me not being able to make my own hoodie. i didn't realize having tight sewing skills made you fly. i can afford to buy a motherfucking sweatshirt.

[ZOKU]

ice grillz has already made it perfectly clear with what his intentions are. Putting words into his mouth or making him out to be some bad guy is retarded.

Yes, he was biting on LeRoy Jenkins. He already said that. But who the fuck is LeRoy Jenkins? You know who he is? Some other dude with a fucking sewing machine. I don't see any LeRoy Jenkins corporation or institution so don't make him out to be some major league fashion designer. :rofl: :thumbsdown: :rofl: The kid has already stated this was his first attempt at cutting, sewing and designing his own hoodie. Fuck the floral print for a second and give him his props for making his own shit. He has already stated that *if* he were to sell them, he would doing so for the cost of materials and shipping. Moreso, this would allow more practice on his end. Calling him names and making him out to be this big-time bootlegger is completely false.

Did I use too many big words with too many complete sentences? Here. Let me break it down in a way that you might be able to better comprehend.

Stop twistin' people's words and actions to make them out to be some evil empire. There is nothing illegal whatsoever about what he is doing or what his intentions are. Take your parent's cash, buy a hoodie of your own and stop callin' this kid out like he's done something wrong.

How was that? :D

[ultra_Vitalence!!!]

man why are garments expensive in the first place beyond time and labor???
to weed out the inappropriate audience from wearing/having such garments..
so therefore dude completely defeats the purpose of there being a high price tag.

what he shoulda said:.. check out what i just made..

YOU ARE WALMART!! and ruin the value of the dollar

[Jest]

co-sign with ZOKU,

Diamond i really think it is very unprofessional of you to first call out Diamond and Bones (who is internationally recognised in the streetwear community, not some ass wipes posting their works up in forums) for rippin and now this poor kid cause he jigged somethin your homy made. I originally left the first post alone cause i really thought you were just voicing your frustrations (not that i didn't think it was still very unprofessional for a brand to do so on a forum) but now this. I said it last there's no such thing as rippin in 2006 it's all been done before, just remade, reinvented. You act like you own the diamond sign.. have you seen Thebrilliance.com recently, yeah go sue them too. It doesn't show much about what you've been reppin the past nine years as Diamond Supply Co. Is that really a rep from Diamond Co even? Do you guys have so much time to sit around on forums? I apologize if this comes around harsh but i'm just amazed that a company with 9 yrs going for it can be so openly blatant and un-professional on a widely viewed street culture forum.

:thumbsdown:

[Tronics]

PC brigade are all this thread...

Its been stated before. Well done on taking the time to put your skills to use.

But the problem lies with you leaning towards selling them. If you were to recieve 20+ PM's about the hoodies your telling me you wouldn't make any to sell??? Come on dont play dude...

You obv know how to sew better then some peeps, so put your skills to use and make your own hoodies etc. Screen print something etc etc.

[SayWord]

Again when did he say he was only gonna do leroy jenkins shit? If you can just go down to your local fabric store and by the same type of print for cheap and make your own shit easy, who really is the dumb ass, the guy paying $200 or the one paying 20?

[Jest]

It's all good if the kid wants to sell them. If he can garner a demand why not. That is what the game is all about right, garnering a demand for your craft. Common I'm not supporting this cause I think it's hot, leroy jenkins just started somethin I think is just whacky. common table cloth hoodies, 1 year from now (or even right as I speak) peeps will be spitting this like what was I thinking just like 80's fashion.. Wait and see! LOL but my point is the kid can do whatever he wants if he is good enough.. He can sell this of as being better than leroy jenkin joints, he can call it 'betta dan jenkins', start a site called www.bettadanjenkins.com and have higher quality, worksmanship, found fabrics, cut and sell it for the same price. Why not? Because it's copied, from a person that bought a hoodie template and fabrics from a arts and craft store. Common open your eyes people, it's both wack and we all know it but don't tell peeps what they can and not do.
Homey came in her all humble and honest I respect that.

[Tronics]

Its all well and good being humble and honest but he asked us for +/- comments....

The main point of it is the only reason he decided to make the hoodies was because Leroy Jenkins had done it before. Do you think if Leroy Jenkins wasn't around he would have cut his own table cloth and worn that as a hoody??? I think not...

And this my friend tends to lean towards biting. Zero originality, the guy didn't even go out and buy some Simpson’s bed sheets or something, he wanted floral, because of one brand...

The scene is small enough and saturated as it is, we dont need internal heads, fucking shit up for other heads...

If you cant buy Leroy Jenkins you cant buy it, dont go make your own...

Would you make your own Gucci shirt if you couldn't afford it??

[SayWord]

^^^That is the worst logic ever. If you can't afford it, you can't make your own version?

He also admitted to biting leroy, no one doubted that, not even him.

[Diamond]

Werd to Tronics, You got it right kid! Nuff said.

[DUM]

Leroy Jenkins is not some amazingly innovative design..it looks nice...but it's just a floral print on a hoody and I know that has been done before. So if kid wants to sell them...no problem imo...go for it man.

[Jest]

Sayword: Cosign, that was really a very illogical reply on the part of Tronics, and it still is baffling me how Diamond is still so blatant to agree with such a comment.

Dum: Co-sign precisely my point on what the kid wants to do!! grandma material made into clothes has been done many times before, even on hoodies!!

[DUM]

Making a Gucci T-shirt is different than making this hoody in that he made it with A floral print and not the one that leroy jenkins used...making a fake gucci shirt would be printing their logo...which is then bootlegging.

[Diamond]

Homeboy... continue making your own shit.... nothing is wrong with that.
just maybe think about taking your sewing skills and design something on your own....
Not a remake of what someone else is already doing. You have a brain, Use it!

[ackbar]

i don't see how i'm "twisting" anyone's words. he said he is making leroy jenkins bites and will sell them.
leroy jenkins bite
i can't afford to cop leroy at the moment due to not having a job and credit card bills stacking up, so i decided to make one.
if i do decide to make some, i know i won't rape any of you with heavy $. this was my first ever hoodie and there are few flaws that i need to fix. i will keep working on it til i am satisfied with it then i will start selling.
i was thinking about making some for them for very little $. hell, i'd make em for material cost + shipping.
you miswell cop some off brand forces from payless shoes while you're at it. make the cypher complete.

[kingkelly]

The kid made 1 hoody.
He likes it, I like it.
Is he gonna make 100 others just like that?
No.

Let him wear that sick hoody that he made with his bare hands.
Cant wait to see what the next one looks like.
Much love

[SayWord]

Yes because leroy jenkins was THE FIRST to use...floral prints. The only original thing about what leroy jenkins is doing is doing what the topic creator did, but jack up the prices.

And ackbar is making the ***** out to be a bootlegger which is false. Imitator yes. But he ain't putting leroy jenkins tags on his shit. he's thinking about selling floral print hoodies, at a better price the "name brand" and I use that term loosely. But the topic creator already know this.

[beathead]

^ word.. his intentions were good aint like he's taking the same exact fabric, tags and etc. Dude like the concept so he rolled with it.

[jjs home]

Jeroy Lenkins Hoodies


Its pretty funny ya'll are defending leroy Jenkins stuff like that. At the end of the day they are both just sewn up curtains, and if they didn't wanna get imitated they shouldn't have made theur hoodies out of shit ANYONE with 7 dollars can buy

[philpl]

hating on the guy for using floral prints is non-sense...just becuase leroy jenkins used floral prints doesnt mean its offlimits...its not even that nice...its almost the same as u guys attacking another another guy for making his hoody out of cotton becuase *oh no* u used cotton first...

i mean..x-large and bape could sue each other for having a gorilla head on their clothes...and if u think about...for a hoody to cost 250$ when it costs 20$ to make...thats just messed up..

[Texas Mike]

Hoodie looks good but I liked the one BigSpartacus posted several weeks ago.

[ice grillz]

haha, i love this.
let me clearify some stuff. (again)

i respect leroy and his work, but let me tell you, he isn't the first one to come up with floral print hoodie.
he may be the first to bring em out as streetware, but definately not the first.
if anything, he's the real biter.

only thing i have taken from him was the concept of using floral print fabric for my hoodie.
leroy DID NOT come up with his own floral print.
if i were to use the fabric he have made himself, then it would be considered bootlegging.
he probably picked some out from thousands of different floral print fabric.

don't tell me about originality when you use the misfits skull and replace all teeth with gold. it's still the misfits logo whether you change the color of the teeth or not. who were you trying to fool?
all you going to call out triumvir for bape copy?
the hundreds woodpecker?
nike's new full zip hoodie?


i will not apologize for anything for i have done nothing wrong, but i really appreciate everyone's honest feedbacks and i love it!

holy shit, chain gang hoodies are already out now?!

[SayWord]

Exactly, The misfits thing is a terrible bite especially if you are a misfits fan. The connection there is way off.

I think he explained everything and already knew what you lot was gona throw at him. Any more hating , biting comments being thrown to him anymore ? :S

anyways nice hoody and keep it up, i remember wen i used a sewin machine and it went everywhere lol =S

[KillaKate]

I think everyone is making some valid points..

So let me speak somewhat un-biased...

whether or not you think this kid is biting leroy jenkins, what he did, intentionally or not, is point out just how cheap CERTAIN garments are made that kids are buying in comparison to what the selling price is(markup is a bitch)showing you yourself can make a snazzy hoody for 30 bucks, versus paying 250 for something similar...now I know you may say "oh, gucci makes stuff for this much and sells it for 40 times as much or marc jacobs makes it for this much an sells it for this much more, why cant everyone else do that?"...yeah well...thats different...those garments are made alot better, and with very very different fabric composition and stitching..but yeah thats not what I wanna get into right now.

now is it right to make knockoffs of anything..no ...and is that what this dude is trying to do...I dont know...but im saying..Everyone in this part of the industry has taken something from someone else and altered it or used it for inspiration..and thats apparently acceptable to everyone, because so many people support the streetwear industry...and as much as I hate blatent knockoff shit, i mean HATEEEEE, this kid has a point when he says, the dude who makes Leroy jenkins did not design a specific floral pattern or polka dot pattern identifiable to ONLY LJ..this is fabric you can buy from any fabric store...now was LJ the first to make a floral hoody, no...but were they the first to make one for the streetwear kids..yes...im saying, my boyfriend rocks LJ...and he likes it...do I respect the creativity from the LJ brand as a fellow fashion head..yes I do...but do i think its themost original thing out there..of course not..If I was them, id make my own floral patterns and designs that noone could just go out and buy for 4.99/yard..therefore it wouldnt seem so silly to people to pay 250 for something a kid on here made for 30 bucks..not only that but it would give them even better brand recognition..

I dont know, my head hurts now.

[Fresh King Of M.I.A]

cant believe people dress like that

[thelion1856]

first off fuck a leroy jenkins, his shit was tight when he first posted his line on his website but the pricing for them was rediculous. 300 bucks for a fucking hoody that i know cost around $40 max to make is straight bullshit. Overpricing clothing to try and make it a professional line is like killin your own shit.

All u suckin leroy or bape dick need to open your eyes. I think these leroy jenkins groupies are just mad cuz they just realized that the leroy hoody they payed $300 to 400 bucks for only cost this dude 20 bucks to make. Now they thinkin damn thats not fair! Stop bitchin, this cat made some dope designing with his hoody.

Also the florar print aint all that what other prints do these fabric stores got, lets see a something different than a "floral print" lets see a "porno print", "bitches shooting guns print" "guns print" "knife in hand print" "tits and ass print" something out there & in your face ya know.

[ToddeFresh]

yea i would definitely not sell em when ur using floral patterns like leroy, but if ya wanna make hoodies n sell just use different materials then leroy and do something to set yourself apart from them mayb even have a smaller price tag

[Mackland]

^^ co-co sign

yeah, make some "bust_on_my_face_leroy" print.. them g's gon' cop it mos def!





yeah bitch, this co-signing is really fun :P

[Whizz]

In the age of post-modernism nothing is original anymore. That's this days biggest problem. If the kid wanted it to be and came up with that then i'd have a problem but he's openly admitted his intentions and as long as he doesn't try and sell it or rock it as a LJ then I have no problem. If on the other hand you want to start making designs, start drawing and drawing and drawing. Too many people are producing designs without a moments thought, even big brands like BBC.

[ice grillz]

seriously, i didn't expect this much response for my post. thanks!

i respect leroy and i always had.
so, i WILL NOT make any floral print hoodies in the future.

however, i am looking for alternative patterns (i'd even use whatever fabric for the outside and lining, fullzip or regular, total custom for your comfort) for my next hoodie and thinking about selling those in the near future, but as of now, my craftsmanship lacks a lot. there are many things i can do to improve and like i have said, i will not make and sell half decent work with my name on it. id rather take extra time and money for top quality rather than to make quick $ by using cheap materials and half the time it needs to complete.

ps. no more pm's because it takes forever for it to load and it takes forever to send so until hb stops lagging i do not want pm's.
you can write directly to my email at \, but do not ask me about floral print because i won't do it. (srsly, just read what i just said above)

again, thanks.

[bape_boi]

i tred this.... however if you use just fabric from the fabric store... it is extremely thin!.. not reely hoody-like... n its harder than this dude makes it seem... you COULD do it .. but its tough sewing everything, the armbands are difficult to sew on, so is the waistband, and the hood,a nd like i said its not reely hoody-like... i dont think a noob could just go do this without any help ... what i did after i tryed this was
1. bought a cheap zip up hoody from wal-mart
2. cut along the seams; the back, the hood, and the arms
3. lined it with fabric and sewed it piece by piece
4. sewed it back together...

it was a whooole lot easier and i got a unique reverible hoody! hope this helps

[p2theda]

i wish someone would post a video tutorial of exactly where u have to cut.

[bape_boi]

it depends on the hoody ... if you turn the hoody inside out .. look at the seems that are holding the hoody together.. take an exacto knife and cut along that ... mine was 4 pieces , the hood, the 2 arms and the back... all i had to do was cut out the hood and the arms ..

[p2theda]

by cut along u mean actually cut ontop of those seams?

or cut on the side of the seams

[spykeflipb01]

u should have added a few more extra little things to make it more distinct like maybe a detachable hood, design on the back, extra flaps or something.

i can REFUND you your money.
i told you i was busy with moving and school.
i have never been late with shipping things out.
i have done many many transactions and for a guy with 11 posts to call me out, that's weak.

btw, i never IGNORED your PMs. you sent me a PM today. TODAY, JUNIOR.

seriously, if you want a refund, let me know because i can sell to someone else just as quick.

Diamond: Can I ask how can you tell this kid not to bite Leroy Jenkins, but yet you bit Iron Maiden and the Misfits. You just made minor changes and put your name on it and sold it as your own? And please don't say they gave you permission. Permission or not, you used someone else's design and sold it as your own.
