It's not the same one, though. I see what you're saying, it's a long sleeve shirt with a hoodie as opposed to a fleece hooded sweatshirt. Right?

I keep blowing the margins-I think I found a similar hoodie. it has a similar graphic for the logo and a lining in the hood. the strings are black however, but the logo is gray.

Here is a link-maybe part of the logo is bunched up in the folds of his hoodie in the picture?

I talked to Adidas yesterday. They said it was an old model or a prototype. It might be sold in outlets if it is an old model or it may have been made specifically for the outlet store.

There are Adidas outlets in North Texas obviously-if it is an older model or made for the outlet stores, they would know there.

And yes, I agree that there is likely a little girl on his lap.

Are there any North Texas locals on the thread here? Is the media getting the word out??

Not sure what number you were connected with, but I see that adidas has a concierge service for hard to find items. They're not open right now, but just in case here it is:

eta: looks like they'll customize team and group orders, so maybe that was a special order/event item like the hat was?

Ohhh, now the one you posted does say tech fleece hoodie, but it looks more like tee shirt material, like cotton or something...just looks thinner than the hoodie the kid is actually wearing.

Adidas does a pretty big business with the custom orders-my belief was that the service pertained to that. :)

It would be kind of funny if we did find a similar hoodie online and the service rep I spoke with missed it.

There are plenty of similar, just with the color reversed white on gray rather than gray on white. I'm sure you've seen them -- just sayin'. I must've combed through thousands of images by now, including overseas and the "hard to find" sites and I'm just not finding it. Very, very strange!

the graphic on the hoodie is definitely in the heritage style...Argh. This is making me nuts.

I have put it on my personal FB page and a few FB pages I belong to but have not seen it anywhere else online. I will post it again and ask that it be shared.

Hey, I was looking on ebay last night. This is not exact but closest I have seen due to the all caps lettering, lines over and under lettering, thick hood draw string. The color is not white and the lining is solid color not multicolored.

This seller, is the only one offering these (at least with that description):

Jersey Girl- I sent the info you gathered to Adidas and asked them specifically to find out if it was made in white, when and where.

We will try this again with the hoodie search.

I agree margarita-fyi, Salem doesnt want us posting pictures of him in the event he is a victim here.

We all agree he looks young. In a way he looks 13-15. There must be a reason authorities say 15-20. They saw the full pictures not released.

He looks young, but I'd say 14-15, not early teens.

I think he's a victim. Usually when they're looking for somebody involved in the crime, they say so. He looks to me like he's talking on Skype or some similar program, so he's looking at the picture of the person he's talking to instead of at the camera.
