Hoodies & sweatshirts

For a hoodie or sweatshirt, start with the choice between pullover and full zip, then the fit and the fabric feel. After that, define the hood, lining, pockets, rib cuffs and hem. The references include cropped, oversized and fitted shapes with chest, back or all-over artwork. Large graphics have to be planned around pockets, seams and zips, and a hood lining or rib trim may need its own colour decision.

Printing and branding

Commercial terms

Fabric, construction, branding, quantities and packing all affect the quotation. Tell us which details are fixed and where you need development support, and we will clarify the specification and what sampling is needed before we confirm price and schedule.

Match the application to the fabric and design

Mark the position and finished size of each graphic, including anything that changes from one garment to the next, such as numbers. Sublimation, DTF, heat transfer and embroidery give different results, and the fabric and construction guide the choice. The printing guide covers the order of application and how to prepare artwork.

Questions on this garment type

Can a hoodie have an all-over printed body with plain rib trims?

Yes, an all-over printed hoodie with plain rib trims is already part of this range. The hoodie body panels are printed before sewing, while the rib cuffs and hem are a separate trim in a solid colour, specified as their own component. Give a colour reference for the rib and check on the sample how the printed body meets the plain trims.

Can a printed hoodie have a hood lined in plain fabric?

Yes. The cropped all-over print hoodie in this range has a hood lined in plain fabric. The lining is specified as its own component, with its own fabric and colour reference, and it is confirmed on the sample together with the hood shape and neck opening.

How is a hoodie graphic aligned across the kangaroo pocket?

The kangaroo pocket is a separate piece sewn onto the printed body, so alignment across it is set during sampling. Tell us whether the graphic should continue across the pocket or stop clear of it, and give the required clearance from the neckline and pocket edge. The result is checked on the sewn sample.

What should a custom hoodie specification include?

A hoodie specification should give body and sleeve length, the hood and any lining, the zip if required, pocket position, rib dimensions and artwork size. Show the intended fit, such as cropped, oversized or fitted, and mark which parts use a contrast colour or a different fabric. A measured reference garment helps where the fit is hard to describe.
