Everything You Need to Know About Hoodie Fabrics
Choosing the right fabric for hoodies is essential for comfort, durability, and style. Each type of fabric offers unique benefits, making it suitable for different occasions and weather conditions.
What Fabrics are Suitable for Making Hoodies?
When selecting fabric options for custom hoodies, it’s important to consider the properties and benefits of each material to ensure the final product meets your brand’s quality standards and the needs of your target audience.
- Cotton: Soft, breathable, and ideal for everyday wear.
- Fleece: Warm, cozy, and perfect for colder weather.
- Polyester: Durable, wrinkle-resistant, and great for sportswear.
- French Terry: Lightweight, absorbent, and suitable for layering.
- Blends: Combining the best properties of multiple fabrics for enhanced performance and comfort.
What is Fabric GSM?
Fabric grammage, also known as GSM (grams per square meter), measures the weight of fabric. It indicates how heavy or thick the material is, which affects the garment’s warmth, durability, and comfort. When choosing the right fabric weight for hoodies, consider the following:
- Lightweight (200-300 GSM): Ideal for layering or warmer weather, offering breathability and comfort.
- Medium-weight (300-400 GSM): Versatile for most seasons, providing a balance of warmth and breathability.
- Heavyweight (400+ GSM): Best for colder climates, offering maximum warmth and durability.
Choosing the right fabric weight ensures that your hoodie fits your specific needs and preferences.
If you’re not sure how to choose a fabric gram weight, contact us and one of our designers will make a recommendation based on your design.
Popular Colors of Customized Hoodies
According to our more than ten years’ experience in producing sweatshirts, the most popular and best-selling hoodie colors tend to be those that are versatile and timeless, such as black, white, navy blue, grey, green, and brown, and these colors of sweatshirts are easy to match with other garments and fit most people’s favorites.
What's the Best Way to Apply a Custom Graphic to Hoodie?
Wanted to make unique designs and add graphics & logos on your sweatshirt? At our service, you have the freedom to create bespoke apparel precisely to your need!
- Screen Printing: Best for large orders. Provides vibrant colors and long-lasting designs.
- Heat Transfer: Ideal for detailed graphics and small batches. Allows for precise, high-quality images.
- Embroidery: Adds a premium, textured look. Perfect for logos and simple designs.
- Direct-to-Garment (DTG) Printing: Suitable for small orders with complex, multi-color designs. Offers a soft feel and detailed prints.
- Vinyl Printing: Great for bold, single-color designs. Durable and easy to apply for custom text or logos.
How to Choose the Right Print for My Hoodie？
To choose the right printing method for your design, consider the following factors
Order Size
For large orders, screen printing is the most cost-effective due to economies of scale. Its high setup costs are offset by low per-unit costs. For small batches or individual items, direct-to-garment (DTG) or heat transfer printing is more suitable due to their lower initial setup costs.
Design Complexity
For detailed, multi-color designs, DTG printing or heat transfer is ideal, as they can reproduce intricate graphics and gradients. Screen printing is better for simpler designs with fewer colors, while vinyl printing works well for bold, solid-color designs with minimal detail.
Durability
If durability is a priority, consider screen printing or embroidery. Both methods offer long-lasting results that can withstand repeated washing and wear. Heat transfer and DTG prints are less durable and may fade or crack over time, making them better for occasional wear.
Budget
Screen printing has higher initial setup costs but becomes economical for large quantities due to lower per-unit costs. DTG and heat transfer have lower setup costs, making them more affordable for smaller orders. Embroidery is premium-priced but offers a high-end, professional finish.
What's the Most Popular Hoodie Size?
When it comes to hoodies, size is crucial for comfort and fit. Studies have shown that the most popular hoodie size is large, followed by medium and extra large. A typical distribution of a bulk order might look like this:
- Small (S):20%
- Medium (M): 30%
- Large (L): 30%
- Extra Large (XL): 15%
- XXL: 5%
This will ensure that the majority of your audience will be able to buy them, while still catering to those who need a smaller or larger size. Keep in mind that people often prefer loose hoodies, so ordering the right size will ensure that you can reduce your inventory buildup and increase your sales.
How Much do Hoodies Cost to Manufacture?
The cost to produce a sweatshirt is influenced by multiple factors, including materials, labor, overheads, customization, and logistics.
Working with apparel manufacturers, the cost of a hoodie can be reduced to $12-$18 and the cost of a sweatshirt to $10-$15
What factors affect the cost of hoodies or sweatshirt?
1.Material Costs：
- Fabric：The type and quality of fabric (e.g., cotton, polyester, blends, fleece) significantly impact the cost. Higher-quality or specialty fabrics, like organic cotton or performance blends, will cost more.
- Additional Materials: This includes threads, zippers, buttons, and any other materials used in the construction of the sweatshirt.
- Label and package：Additional fees apply if you want custom labels and packaging for your own branding
2.Labor Costs
- Cutting and sewing: Labor costs may vary depending on the location of production and the complexity of the design. Countries with lower labor costs can produce sweatshirts more cheaply than countries with higher labor costs
- Embroidery/Printing: Adding custom embroidery or printing can increase labor costs. The complexity and type of decoration (screen printing, DTG, embroidery) also affect the cost.
3.Logistics and Shipping
- Transportation: Costs for transporting raw materials to the factory and finished goods to the market.
- Duties and Taxes: Import/export duties and taxes, which vary by country.
