Neighborhoodies is a
Brooklyn-based independent clothing manufacturer that specializes in
custom made apparel and original in-house designs. They claim to be the
only company in America that creates one-at-a-time hand-stitched
sweatshirts. They have received substantial media attention for their
business, including write-ups in the
New York Times and People magazine. In December 2007, Rachael Ray
featured their clothing in her magazine and television show. That month
the founder, Michael de Zayas, was a guest on The Big Idea with Donny
Deutsch on MSNBC. Neighborhoodies sells clothing through their website
and their headquarters and showroom in Brooklyn. In addition to custom
tees and hoodies, the company also produces "readymade"
t-shirts, publishing 10 new in-house
designs each weekday on their website. Amond the thousands of readymade
designs include customizable Enfield Tennis Academy shirts, a reference
to
David Foster Wallace's
Infinite Jest. The "Utah get me two" has launched them into the
world stage as the definitive creators of
Gary Busey tees.
