I'll be the first to admit it: there's something sort of silly about plastering the face of the President of the United States of America on a hoodie. But that's what makes it so fun. The Barack Obama Head Hood is one of aseries of sweatshirts designed by Brooklyn- based designer
Clinton van Gemert. In addition to President Obama, he has other icons like
Michael Jackson,
Mr. T,
Marilyn Monroe and
Elvis Presley.
Once you pop it the sweatshirt, the graphic hood gives the surreal illusion of a floating celebrity head -- guaranteed to get a lot of stops, stares and comments. It's goofy, but great! Would you wear it?If the answer is yes, log on to
Head Hoods to snag your own. They retail for around $49.99 each.
