VAGABOND SLAMMED HOODIE DUSKY PINK - The Drivers HQ

Slammed. The Slammed Hoodie carries Slammed in black italic capitals across the shoulders with Vagabond Automotive Apparel underneath, a small Slammed print on the left chest and a large one down the sleeve. It comes in Dusky Pink, Mustard, a deep yellow ochre, and Peppermint, a pale turquoise green, in sizes S to 3XL.

Dropped. The Dropped Hoodie is grey with black ringed arms and a large chest logo, in S to 2XL.

Mini. The Mini Hoodie in Pacific Green has white Mini writing on the front, the back and one arm, in S to 2XL.

Looking after the prints. Wash at 30°C and never iron directly on a print, as Autobrands advises. A fresh print can carry a slight vinegar-like smell from the fixing agent, which goes after the first wash.

The Brand

About Vagabond

Vagabond Automotive Apparel is a UK car culture clothing name from Automotive Vagabond UK Ltd, which rebranded to Autobrands in 2024. The company was founded in 2012 after a lifelong interest in cars of all makes, because its founders felt there was a gap for car enthusiasts to buy clothing about the love of their life, their car. It began at shows with cushions for rear seats and parcel shelves, soon moved its designs onto clothing, and grew from the VW scene into other makes, with brands such as Slammed and Dropped.

At The Drivers HQ we stock Vagabond online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop, including the Slammed Hoodie in Mustard, the Dropped Hoodie and the Mini Hoodie in Pacific Green.

Vagabond for little ones and the wider range

Babygrow. The VW Babies Babygrow is camo with white printing, in 0 to 3, 3 to 6 and 6 to 12 months, so you choose by the baby's age. Wash it before the first wear.

How the range grew. The company launched its first website in 2014 and a new online shop in 2017. Alongside Slammed, its brands now include Dropped, Automotive Stance UK, On Its Arse, Truck Master and Jap Power, and it is adding designs for the classic and motorsport scenes as well as more modified ones.

How the prints are made. Autobrands prints its designs with direct to garment machines and water-based inks. It notes that a bright garment colour can change how a print looks, especially black ink.
