The right hoodie can turn your logo into something people genuinely love wearing. Here is how to choose the style, fabric and finish that suit your brand.
Custom hoodies are one of the most popular branded products for good reason. They are comfortable, worn all year round and give your logo plenty of space. But with so many options, it helps to know what to look for before you order.
Start With Who Will Wear It
Think about the people who will wear your hoodies and where they will wear them. A sports team needs something durable for training and travel, while a clothing brand may want a heavier, oversized fit that feels premium.
- Staff and workwear: comfortable regular fit, easy-care fabric
- Sports teams: durable fleece with names and numbers
- Clothing brands: heavyweight or oversized fits with custom labels
Pick the Right Style
Pullover hoodies are the classic choice and offer the cleanest front for your logo. Zip-ups are easy to layer and popular for staff, while oversized and cropped styles suit fashion drops.
Choose Your Fabric Weight
Fabric weight is measured in GSM. The higher the number, the thicker and warmer the hoodie.
Quick guide to GSM
- 280 GSM: light and great for layering
- 350 GSM: our best seller for everyday wear
- 450 GSM: heavyweight, premium streetwear feel
A heavier hoodie costs a little more, but it is the one people keep wearing for years.
