People love their hoodies and sweatshirts, and if you are in the garment customization business, they should be integral components of your fall and winter collections.&nbsp;<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a style=\"background:#075f96;display:block;text-align:center;padding:10px 20px;max-width:400px;color:#fff;border:2px solid #075f96;transition:0.3s;margin:20px auto;border-radius:7px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/pullover-hoodie\/\">We Have Wholesale Hoodies Your Customers Will Love!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you get started, though, you need to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/pullover-hoodie\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">make sure you\u2019re using the right wholesale hoodies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and crewneck sweatshirts. With endless options to choose from, deciding what to use can be tricky. Fortunately, we\u2019re here to help! Read on to learn how to select the best hoodies and sweatshirts to custom print.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3778\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/colorful-different-hoodie.jpg\" alt=\"colorful different hoodie sweatshirt Isolated on white background\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/colorful-different-hoodie.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/colorful-different-hoodie-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/colorful-different-hoodie-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: inchic\/Shutterstock.com<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Style<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When shopping for sweatshirts, you have two primary options to choose between: Hooded and crewneck. Hooded sweatshirts are available in pullover and full-zip styles, and just about everyone has a few of them in their closets. Pullovers are your best bet if you plan on adding a design to the front, but both styles work well for designs with back designs.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Crewneck sweatshirts have seen tremendous popularity growth in the last couple of years. While they haven\u2019t quite reached the same level as hoodies, they have become wardrobe must-haves. To keep your customers happy, we recommend offering both hooded and crewneck sweatshirts.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Fabric<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/t-shirts\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like wholesale t-shirts<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, sweatshirts are made from several different materials. Apparel made from 100% cotton is always a popular choice because it\u2019s soft and cozy. And polyester is great when you\u2019re looking for moisture-wicking performance. When it comes to garment customization, though, cotton\/polyester blends are perfect.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you use cotton\/poly blends, you get to enjoy the benefits of both materials. These hoodies offer the comfort of cotton that customers love, plus a smooth surface ideal for customization.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Weight<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3779\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Couple-in-love-looking-into-camera-on-blue-background.jpg\" alt=\"Couple in love looking into camera on blue background.

If you are trying to keep your customers toasty and warm, heavyweight hoodies are the way to go. When you\u2019re trying to create garments that are perfect for those days that are a little chilly but not freezing cold, though, light to mid-weight fabrics are a better choice.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offering sweatshirts in multiple weights is an excellent way to meet your customers\u2019 needs, but doing so can be expensive \u2014 especially for new or small businesses. If your budget doesn\u2019t have room for multiple weights, we recommend sticking with mid-weight hoodies and sweatshirts.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Brand<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are lots of brands that manufacture hoodies. There\u2019s <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gildanbrands.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gildan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Dodger, Alstyle, and Jerzees, just to name a few. When you <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">buy bulk sweatshirts from a trusted wholesaler<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 like The Adair Group \u2014 you don\u2019t have to worry about receiving sub-par products from unreputable brands. You can rest assured that, no matter what brand(s) you choose, you\u2019ll be getting high-quality apparel to customize and resell to your customers. For this reason, choosing a brand primarily comes down to personal preference when you order from a trustworthy wholesaler.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If shopping elsewhere, look for established brands that stand behind their products. Visit various manufacturers\u2019 websites to learn about their commitment to important issues like sustainability, eco-friendliness, and human rights. In doing so, you\u2019ll be able to weed out the not-so-good brands and choose apparel that comes from reputable companies.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Customization Method<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3775\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-printing-on-shirts-and-textiles.jpg\" alt=\"screen printing on shirts and textiles\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-printing-on-shirts-and-textiles.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-printing-on-shirts-and-textiles-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-printing-on-shirts-and-textiles-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: Prpos\/Shutterstock.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some fabrics are better for specific customization methods than others. Screen printing is versatile and works on just about any type of fabric. But if you\u2019re thinking about sublimation printing, you will need blank apparel made from 100% polyester. 100% cotton yields the best results for direct-to-garment printing and heat transfer. Understanding what materials work best with your chosen customization method is crucial in selecting the right products for your business.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a style=\"background:#075f96;display:block;text-align:center;padding:10px 20px;max-width:400px;color:#fff;border:2px solid #075f96;transition:0.3s;margin:20px auto;border-radius:7px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/t-shirts\/\">Shop Wholesale T-Shirts and Hoodies from The Adair Group<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding the perfect hoodies and sweatshirts for custom printing requires knowledge and forethought.
