How is the quality?  Is it soft and thick and comfortable?  Some cheap sweat
shirt in San Francisco is thin like T-shirt (yet, they sell it at price of a
sweat shirt).

I don't think the price is too bad (*not* that I am rich).  Any good quality
college sweart shirt is almost, if not more, as much.  (at least it's true
at UC Berkeley).

If the price is $38, I will buy two.  (Gee, I missed the T-shirt last time,
so this time I won't give this up.....)


Thanks Lars!
