I came back to this thread to post the same exact thing! I really hope it doesn't arrive while we're traveling. We leave for the Adirondacks on the 22nd to visit my parents for a week. :PI really want to wear it out there -- I'm gonna need it, since the mornings there nowadays are usually below zero, haha.

I have a feeling it will come either on the 23rd-25th I really hope you get it on time though. I had wanted mine like, the entire past week I've been sledding. And watch all the snow melt once it arrives

Haha, I know, right? I can imagine it would be really warm (and fashionable!) to wear while sledding. Hope we both get them sooner rather than later! We're supposed to get a few more inches of snow out here later tomorrow ...

Have you checked your 'expected delivery' date? o.o mine says its expected Thursday and that it was sent by 'two day shipping' so maybe I wasn't crazy when I read 2-day shipping, although it technically would've taken 4 days by Thursday xD I just kept thinking 'I read somewhere.. 2 days..' and then got all bummed out when it said 7-10 :I ANYWAY here's to hoping yours says the same and that it comes before your trip!! Hopeful for ya

WOOHOO! Just looked at my tracking info and mine's set to arrive tomorrow too! You were right about the 2-3-day shipping -- maybe they did that because they were backordered and then the ship date was pushed back again? Anyway, I'm so happy I get to wear my hood to the Adirondacks! My parents will give me a funny look like, "There goes that crazy husky lady again," but I won't care because I'll be so happy and warm in my Spirit Hood, haha.

Let's post pics of ourselves wearing them when they arrive!

I ordered one for my niece and it's still back ordered! It's not gonna ship until Jan 4! I'm so bummed.

Oh, no! What a bummer. They must have not anticipated they would get so overloaded with orders after they put out that Black Friday online coupon code. Hope it ships on time (Megan's and mine were delayed but then shipping got delayed another couple days even after that) and gets there quickly when it does ship!

Well, I just started snooping around and saw that zappos has them, so i ordered one from there and i'll just cancel the one from spirithoods.com. I'm really hoping that one makes it on time!

Good luck Jen! Yeah ours were ordered November 29th, supposed to ship December 10th, then actually shipped December 15th. I hope it arrives tomorrow although I'm in no rush since the snow is all gonna melt by tomorrow, but I really hope yours Liz and Jen arrives in time for the trip and the niece!!

Those spirit hoods are nice! Although, there is no way in hell I would spend $100 for one of those lol. I do like the fact that some of the money goes to endangered animals.

We got it for $80, but I also like that its an /american company/. You can get a million husky hats on amazon, for $20 made in china, but this one is hand-made, not from a factory in china, right here in the US. Call me old fashioned but it makes me feel all good inside.

I agree! I probably wouldn't have bought it, though, without that coupon code. It IS a lot of money, but it's a good cause and a good company I feel good supporting. They seem really busy this time of year, at least from what I've heard and experienced anecdotally, since a lot of their items are backordered! Glad they seem to be doing well, though.

Can't wait to get my hood tomorrow!!!

My thoughts exactly. Is it tomorrow yet? Sigh.

I completely agree with what your saying Megan. I would much rather have good quality over cheap over produced items.

I completely get what you were saying though. It's funny, because when I first saw them advertised on my facebook, I went "PFFFT!!!! Whose gonna spend over $100 on a stupid 'spirit hood'?! Not me! losers!" and kept scrolling. Then Liz posted it and I was like 'its a husky hat? Wait.. are those.. they are.. gah..' and like Liz also said, the only reason I bought it was because of the awesome sale mwahhahaa. But I did have to research the company first a bit before I decided to shell out $80, and when I learned about it all being hand made and in the US, I was sold.

That and I'm just so persuasive.

I hope you are all happy, hundreds of four year kids in China are out of work because "haters" like you buy American!  Think of the children! (I hope you get that's suppose to be funny)

Thank you! I ordered hers on the 29th too! I really want one for myself, but I can't decide if that would put me over the line to the crazy obsessed dog lady... Although, truthfully, I'm probably already way over that line!

I'm way over that line, too. I figure, why not embrace it? If you've got it, flaunt it!

Lol yes! I embrace it every day. I probably look stupid enough with my walking belt and poop pouches and treat bags, rofl.

I do the same thing. I've always got my treat tote and poop bags on me. Next step is to invest in the walking belt, but I'll probably wait until Layla's bigger and/or we add more dogs to the pack.

Walking belt is your best friend. Doesn't help, Abby got the alpine one so it doesn't look noticable, but I got the SASS one so its got like tons of padding so it looks super weird. It's really comfy though so I don't care xD and its purple

Great, now my spirithood from spirithoods has shipped AND the one I ordered from zappos has too! This year has turned into a pita.

I know it sounds like it was meant to be then!

My friend has the black wolf one, and I'm so jealous! But hats don't look good on me let alone a full hood with ears!
