Quick Answer

Custom hoodies start with the fit, fabric and finish

For hoodie sourcing, buyers should define the silhouette first, then choose fleece or French terry, full cotton, cotton blend, CVC blend or PC blend, GSM, finishing, decoration method, trims and size chart.

A realistic hoodie tech pack usually needs fabric composition, body GSM, rib GSM, hood construction, pocket construction, wash process, print technique, artwork placement and tolerance rules before costing can be accurate.

For sample/SMS orders, 20-50 pieces can be discussed after tech pack review. These smaller runs usually cost around 2x normal production unit pricing because development and setup costs are spread over fewer pieces.

Final Hoodie Types

Hoodie styles brands can develop

These are style and silhouette categories, not fabric categories. Fabric, GSM and finishing can be adjusted after the buyer confirms the target market and fit.

01

Pullover Hoodie

Classic hooded style with kangaroo pocket or clean front panel; strong for graphic, puff print and embroidery programs.

02

Full Zipped Hoodie

Layering style with front zipper, pockets and rib finish; best for left-chest logos, sleeve branding and back artwork.

03

Oversized / Drop-Shoulder

Streetwear silhouette with wider body, dropped shoulder and larger sleeve shape; needs careful grading and fabric allowance.

04

Heavyweight Streetwear Hoodie

Premium pullover or zip hoodie using 420-460 GSM fleece or French terry; at the upper range, color variation may occur after dyeing or washing.

05

Performance Hoodie

Active or athleisure hoodie direction using stretch, lighter-weight terry, mesh details or quick-dry blend planning where fabric function matters.

06

Crewneck Sweatshirt

Non-hooded companion style using the same fleece or French terry program; useful for capsule collections.

Fabric and GSM

Fleece and French terry planning

Use fabric construction, fiber blend and finishing language separately so the buyer understands what they are approving.

French Terry

Loop-back knitted fabric with a cleaner inside surface than brushed fleece. Good for all-season hoodies and premium casualwear.

Common range: 280-360 GSM

Fleece

Knit fabric suitable for warmer hoodie programs. It may be brushed inside for a softer, warmer hand feel.

Common range: 300-420 GSM

Full Cotton, CVC and PC Blends

Hoodies can be planned in full cotton, cotton blends, CVC blends such as 70% cotton / 30% polyester, or PC blends depending on hand feel, price and stability.

Blend confirmed by buyer target

Heavyweight Direction

For premium streetwear, 420-460 GSM can be used. At the upper range, color variation may occur after dyeing, garment wash or bulk production.

Premium range: 420-460 GSM

Realistic Tech Pack Direction

Sample hoodie specification points

These buyer-facing specification examples are based on common hoodie tech pack and costing inputs. They help buyers understand what Fair Cotton needs before sample or production review.

Body Fabric

CVC terry or fleece can be planned around 300 GSM for standard hoodie bodies, depending on hand feel, season and price target.

Rib Fabric

Cuff and bottom rib may be heavier than the body, for example around 500 GSM, to support recovery and shape retention.

Hood Construction

A hood can be double hooded or single hooded, with self-fabric inner or a lightweight jersey inner depending on weight and target hand feel.

Pocket Construction

Kangaroo or patch pocket size, placement and topstitch method should be measured in the tech pack before sample making.

Wash ProcessEnzyme wash, soft wash, acid wash or mineral wash can be used for different hand-feel and vintage effects.
Print DirectionSoft-hand screen print, water-based print, discharge print or distressed vintage print should be approved by strike-off.

Special heavyweight or heavily washed developments need extra shade, shrinkage and hand-feel review. For 460 GSM programs, color variation may occur and should be approved by the buyer before bulk.
