For the ol heads, Champion was a quality no frills brand. Modern day Champion is trash quality wise, but anytime I can snatch up a vintage hoodie or sweatshirt I jump on it.
Champion has American made sweatpants......

I actually need some new sweatpants. Thanks for this thread op.
I think the only way we can practically bring any manufacturing back to America is to make all manufacturing jobs in tech. So no laborers, and very few employees per factory.for $150
give me that Chinese $40 pair
sorry America.
You simply can't compete with countries that use slavery like China or have their employees who do earn actual money working 12 hours a day, 6 days a week with no overtime. So the only plausible solution is an automated factory with a handful of Engineers and technicians running the machines. And a very lean administrative team in an office.
But at this point it kind of defeats the purpose of bringing manufacturing jobs back because most people think manufacturing means that a lot of people are going to be hired the way they are in Vietnam or China or even 1960s Detroit . But it just isn't practical.
Think I bought a championship hoodie from Costco last year 
It was on clearance, price ended in .97

Man I went to dikk's couple years ago to upgrade my joggers & the prices were insane , these muthafukas wanted like $100 for a damn jogger . I found some nice once at Ross . Buying name brand is like throwing away money. Dress for less my negroesfor $150

You sound easily finessed.
You sound ignorant as to garment quality.
Champion sweatpants are the most comfortable sweats out there hands down. Not worth anywhere close to $100 though.
Champion comfy af, gota be our version of Reebock

I got a few of these (that I caught on sale years ago) and the quality is nice
We used to run through their sweat suits because as soon as they touched the washing machine...game over... shrunk a full size and the fit was gone. Very poor quality threads. I managed to save a couple by stretching like they were rubber bands them as soon as they came out the washer but unless they use better quality threads

I wish I would give anybody 100 bucks for champion anything 
I got a few champion pieces right now and I’m sure if I round up the prices I paid for everything it’s not even close to 100. People be easily getting fleeced these days

Champion has become a premium brand these days; in the last 15+ years, its popularity has risen at least in America, especially with younger people (mid-30s and below).
I'm not familiar with whether they're popular outside of the US. I believe they're owned by Hanes, which might've contributed to their brand resurrection.
They're somewhat on the same level as Supreme in terms of marketing, but slightly more affordable. They make a lot of flashy hoodies, puffer jackets, packable windbreakers, etc, it's crazy, but their logo is somewhat iconic, like Nike's, which I think played a part in their popularity, y'know, things written in cursive are always gonna entice people.
