A French company selling hooded sweatshirts online is facing some scrutiny after anti-crime campaigners slammed them. The sweatshirt is being sold for 60Euro and comes complete with a zip-up top and zip-down hood that only exposes your eyes. Currently they are only being sold on the Internet, but are expected to go on sale in Britain soon.
The anti-crimers are mad because what? Criminals wouldnt be able to get ahold of ski masks otherwise?

Well, it might deter supervillianism. Look at that guy, for cripe’s sake! If he’s sticking up anything, it’s secret military labs with his evil DestructoRay.

That’s so dumb. The clerk will tell police, “he’s wearing one of those stupid mask sweatshirts!”, I think criminals will opt for the removable mask.

lol, yeah…
lets see… I need to blend in… how do I do that? Oh, I know! This neon green hoodie thing will hide my face and allow me to blend into the croud un-noticed for my escape! Its great! Much better than one of those “normal” masks or better yet, a getaway car
