What Makes Hoodies So Great
When it starts to feel chilly outside or in the house, there is nothing better than putting on a nice, warm hoodie. Hoodies are a convenient choice for spring, autumn, winter, and those cool summer nights. Teams and organizations often use hoodies as a way to promote unity and to make a group stand out in a crowd. Individuals of all ages wear hoodies to feel warm and look stylish. Whatever your project may be, you can’t go wrong with some new hooded pullovers.
Picking The Right Hoodie
If you are looking for a new hoodie, or a set of hoodies, you may not realize that you have so many options to choose from. There are many different styles, patterns, and materials that make each hoodie unique. Instead of choosing the first hoodie you happen to find in a nearby store, make sure that you take the time to consider your needs and preferences so that you end up with the best hoodie for you and your project.
To help you find the perfect hoodie, here are 5 important things to consider.
1 – Heavy Or Lightweight?
When you start looking for new hoodies, make sure that you consider what you want them to be used for. Are you planning on wearing your hoodie in a very cold environment, or do you simply need a lightweight jacket? Hoodies are traditionally used for providing warmth, but many people have started using them as a way to up their sense of fashion or to promote a team. If you plan to wear your hoodie in a warmer environment, you probably won’t want one that is quite as heavy.
In addition to warmth, heavier hoodies can also provide more protection and durability than ones that are made of a lighter material. Your own preferences and needs will likely determine your decision, but make sure that you consider the differences.
2 – Zipped Front Or Not?
Hoodies are made in many different styles. Some have a zipper going down the front while others are pulled over the head without a zipper. Many people prefer either option, so this is really a matter of preference. There are, however, some things that you may want to consider.
As you compare different hoodie styles, keep in mind the following facts about zipped and non-zipped hoodies:
*Zipped hoodies are easy to remove and put on quickly, so this is a good choice for active individuals who may need to remove or put on the hoodie often. On the other hand, a hoodie with a printed design might appear to be poorly designed if the zipper goes through the front of the image.
*Non-zipped hoodies slide easily over the head without requiring the use of a zipper. They might also be warmer because they don’t have a zipper down the front. On the other hand, if you regularly need to be able to put it on or take it off quickly, a non-zipped hoodie might not be your best option.
3 – Two-Tone Or One?
As you consider your choices, you will have the option to select a two-tone hoodie or one. It all comes down to your purpose in getting a hoodie.
Two-tone hoodies are quickly becoming a very popular choice. If you need a set of hoodies for an athletic team or an event, this is a great option to consider. Athletic teams usually have at least two team colors, so this can be a great time to show off your favorite team colors in your hoodie. Two-tone hoodies also tend to be more noticeable than one-tone, so this might be a good way to make a group stand out.
Hoodies with just one color are also a very popular choice. If you are purchasing a hoodie just for yourself, or for a group represented by one color, one-tone hoodies are probably a good option.
4 – Budget
Of course, you will want to consider the amount of money you can afford to spend on your project. Set a realistic budget ahead of time so that you are prepared with the amount of money you want to spend on your hoodies. The sooner you can set a budget, the sooner you will be able to define your limits and the types of hoodies you can realistically afford.
5 – Ask For Help
After considering these important factors, you will probably have a much better idea of the kind of hoodies you are interested in. However, you might still feel unsure. Often times, group orders can be specially designed to come in a variety of styles. This way, group members can decide which styles they are most interested in.
If you are having a hard time deciding, don’t be afraid to ask for help. We are more than happy to help you find the perfect hoodie for your project.
