    My grandparents worked at the OG Russell factory in Alexander City for years until they got bought out by Fruit of the Loom in 2006. There was a little Russell retail store by the factory that was shaped like a piece of pie and raised up by columns.

      This guy just resells T-shirts. T-shirts are throwaway items. Jackets, sweaters are better items and made to last a lot longer.

    IVE LOVED RUSSELL HOODIES!!,
    I still remembered when I stumbled upon one at the Goodwill bins and thought to myself “Damn this looks like a comfortable ass hoodie” went home to try it on and I never looked back. Have almost every color

    My favourite essential crew necks are all Russell! With the exception of one Lee. Wasn’t aware that Russell actually invented the Crew neck though! Love this series, definitely keep it up Paul.

      Kith is douchey rich people brand for people w/ no style. I see a lot of out-of-towners with that stuff. It is trash. People that buy that stuff are just paying for the name. Kith stuff looks like some random Urban Outfitters stuff. People in the real world don't care about Kith or wear it. I see 10,000-15,000 people a day at my job. No one wears that stuff basically.

    I love me some vintage Russell Athletic I feel like the crewnecks are a lot more easier to find as I have a variety of colors that I've thrifted but for some reason the hoodies and sweatpants are a lot more harder to find in my area I was able to find one hoodie and one sweatpant so far but i'm going to keep looking.

    My boyfriend owns a printing shop so I have worn or felt and not worn every brand…. Russell has become my favorite ever since I found a random hoodie in his shop and had the best softness. my question is what crewneck do they have now, that would be a true vintage feel, no stiff sides, that would make good blanks for a project I have in mind. I would like to keep each piece same brand and have vintage feel… tee, crew, sweatshirts, joggers and I was wanting to go with Russell Brand

    Paid advertisement by Russell. They have always been a cheap but decent manufacturer of sweatshirts/hoodies/sweatpants. They are exactly the same quality as Champion, Hanes or Fruit of the Loom. They are definitely not a cool brand or worth a lot of money. I've been thrifting almost 30 years, not gonna buy into the "label" hype BS. You are a sucker if you are paying a lot for labels, just making resellers rich. They are buying this stuff for $1-$5 maybe. Just go to your local thrift store and find something on your own.
