It should come as no surprise that this wardrobe staple was first designed for athletes. In fact, the first hooded sweatshirt was manufactured by Champion Products \u2014 the same Champion brand consumers know and love today \u2014 all the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.championhoodie.com\/blog\/champion-apparel-brand\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">way back in the 1930s<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first hooded sweatshirt was designed to help athletes stay warm on cold, rainy days. But since then, it has become a favorite among everyone, from angsty teens to the most fashionable fashionistas.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a while, hoodies had a bit of a bad reputation, but they have enjoyed a considerable comeback over the last several years. Today, just about everyone has at least one hanging in their closet, but most folks have several. From the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hooded bulk sweatshirts you can order from us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, here at The Adair Group, to luxury styles from the heavy hitters of the fashion industry \u2014 including Versace and Balenciaga \u2014 there\u2019s a hoodie for every taste and every budget.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3835\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/finding-the-perfect-hoodie.jpg\" alt=\"finding the perfect hoodie\" width=\"830\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/finding-the-perfect-hoodie.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/finding-the-perfect-hoodie-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/finding-the-perfect-hoodie-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Finding the Perfect Hoodie<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You probably already have a hoodie or two hanging in your closet, but when you are trying to give your style a facelift, you might want to invest in some new ones. Or maybe the sweatshirts you own have already seen lots of wear and tear. Whatever the case may be, there\u2019s never really a bad reason to shop for new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/pullover-hoodie\/\">blank hoodies<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you click \u201cAdd to Cart,\u201d there are a few things to consider. First, are you in the market for a pullover hoodie or a zip-up style? Pullovers are the best option when your main goal is to stay comfy and cozy all day long. Plus, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.balodana.com\/blog\/guide-to-the-7-pocket-styles\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they have a kangaroo pocket<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that\u2019s large enough for both of your hands. It\u2019s a perfect place to stash your phone, wallet, keys and other valuables and accessories too. All in all, pullover hooded sweatshirts are the quintessential athleisure top, and they\u2019re great for the gym, lazy days at home and casual evenings out on the town.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are looking for something that\u2019s a bit more tailored, the zip-up style may be a better choice. Zippered hoodies often fit closer to the body for a more streamlined appearance. They also pair well with other garments to create outfits that are appropriate for work, date nights and more. Of course, they still work great as casual wear, too, and they\u2019re just as comfortable and cozy as their non-zippered counterparts.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weight is another appropriate consideration. Heavyweight sweatshirts are your best bet when you are looking for something that will keep you nice and toasty on cold winter days. Some heavyweight hoodies are even warm enough to rival jackets in terms of coziness and protection from the elements.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3838\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/man-wearing-layered-jackets-outdoors.jpg\" alt=\"man wearing layered jackets outdoors\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/man-wearing-layered-jackets-outdoors.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/man-wearing-layered-jackets-outdoors-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/man-wearing-layered-jackets-outdoors-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lightweight hoodie may be a better option if you are in the market for something you can put on to stay warm when the office air conditioner is cranked up just a little too high. Lightweight styles are much less bulky, too, making it easier to create a stylish, streamlined look.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brand and price shouldn\u2019t necessarily be your primary concerns, but both are worth considering. Even if you don\u2019t have the disposable income to buy designer hoodies that cost hundreds of dollars, you can still look stylish in sweatshirts from trusted brands like Jerzees, Gildan, Dodge and Alstyle. Products from these brands are of the highest quality and, thanks to their low prices, you can fill your closet with them without blowing your budget.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pay close attention to fabric blends. Hooded sweatshirts made from cotton and polyester blends are the most comfortable, durable and versatile option. They combine the softness of cotton with the durability and smoothness of polyester to form garments that feel as good as they look.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hoodies made from 100-percent cotton are cozy, but they are more susceptible to damage and shrinkage. For most applications, cotton\/polyester blends are the safest bet. There is one exception, though. Go with cotton if you\u2019re thinking about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/t-shirts\/white\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">buying <\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/pullover-hoodie\/\">wholesale hoodies<\/a> or white t-shirts for tie dye<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Cotton absorbs color better than any other material, so it is the best material for tie dye.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Styling Your Hooded Sweatshirt<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/sweatshirts\/pullover-hoodie\/\">Blank hoodies<\/a> are endlessly stylish. Because they do not feature any logos, text or graphics, they go with just about everything. This makes them appropriate for a wide range of situations, too. Since there\u2019s no wrong way to wear a hoodie, you can easily get away with throwing one on over just about any outfit. There are, however, a few ways to elevate your look and establish yourself as someone with good fashion sense.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><i>Layered Looks<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dressing in layers is the perfect solution to days that start chilly and get warm later in the day. It\u2019s also an excellent option if you work in a cool office or spend your day in multiple environments. With layers, you can easily remove or add clothing to stay comfortable all day long.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A zip-up hoodie is an ideal outer layer when putting together a versatile layered look. Wear it over a plain t-shirt for a classic, stylish look or pair it with a button-down shirt for a business-casual look that\u2019s perfect for the office. For maximum style, go with a neutral-colored hoodie. Black and navy blue are both great options.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re going for an edgier look, try wearing a hoodie under a denim jacket. You can also pair a hooded sweatshirt with a parka, peacoat or bomber jacket on those frigid days.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Complete your outfit with a pair of tailored jeans or dress slacks for a polished, sophisticated look. Or keep things casual with your favorite shorts or cargo pants. Experiment with different wardrobe pieces, and you should be able to put together several layered looks for various occasions.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><i>Athleisure Style<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The athletic look isn\u2019t just for athletes anymore. It\u2019s for anyone who wants to stay comfortable all day and look great while doing it! Athleisure has been having a massive moment over the last few years, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chavellenge.com\/athleisure-is-not-going-away-it-is-going-up\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this trend doesn\u2019t appear to be going anywhere<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> anytime soon. In fact, it seems to be getting bigger and bigger with each passing year.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today\u2019s athleisure looks are much more refined than pairing baggy hoodies with saggy sweatpants, though. When you are trying to put together a look that exudes comfort, confidence and coolness, you don\u2019t want a sloppy outfit that looks like you forgot to change out of your workout gear.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, start with a slim-fit, heavyweight hooded sweatshirt. For this look, pullovers and zippered hoodies both work well. The key is choosing one that fits you well rather than hanging off your frame. For bottoms, go with some nice fitted joggers. Keep things simple and monochromatic with an all-black look or spice things up a bit by pairing a brightly colored hoodie with black joggers. Vibrant sneakers are a great way to add a burst of color.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3840\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/styling-your-hoodie.jpg\" alt=\"styling your hoodie\" width=\"830\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/styling-your-hoodie.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/styling-your-hoodie-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/styling-your-hoodie-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b><i>Under a Leather Jacket<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may seem like an unusual pairing, but hoodies and leather jackets go great together. It\u2019s a fashion-forward look that works season after season and a great way to show that you really know how to rock a hooded sweatshirt in an edgy, sophisticated way.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with a well-fitting zip-up hooded sweatshirt, and then add a black leather jacket. For maximum oomph, wear slim-fitting black or indigo jeans. Leather or suede boots are your best bet when it comes to footwear for this look.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><i>As Part of a High-Low Look<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fashion has shifted more toward streetwear and casual attire in recent years, so it shouldn\u2019t come as much of a surprise that people are increasingly combining formal wear with more casual apparel. High-low dressing refers to the trend of mixing and matching casual and formal attire in a manner that makes dress clothes less stuffy and casual wear less relaxed.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding the perfect balance is tricky when <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fashionbeans.com\/2017\/best-high-low-outfit-combinations\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">crafting high-low looks<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but a nice blank hoodie is always a good place to start. When you need an outfit that\u2019s sharp yet cozy, try pairing a mid-weight hooded sweatshirt with a suit and sneakers (instead of your usual dress shoes). Or, if you\u2019re trying to keep things a bit simpler, ditch the suit coat and wear your hoodie with a pair of tailored trousers. If you are feeling especially brave, you could even try wearing bottoms with a print like checks or stripes.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Crafting the perfect high-low look takes practice, and it might feel \u201cwrong\u201d at first. The key is to ensure that even the casual components are of high quality and in good condition. You don\u2019t want to pair your dress slacks with a ratty old band hoodie you got while you were still in high school!&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3839\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/style-tips-for-hoodies.jpg\" alt=\"style tips for hoodies\" width=\"830\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/style-tips-for-hoodies.jpg 830w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/style-tips-for-hoodies-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theadairgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/style-tips-for-hoodies-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>A Few General Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Styling your hoodie the right way means <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">not <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">looking like an overgrown adolescent. Unless you\u2019re just hanging out at home on the sofa, leave the shirts emblazoned with university emblems, band names, and other graphics in your closet. Instead, stick with smart hoodies in neutral colors like black, navy, blue, gray and brown. When you want to add some visual appeal to your look, red, blue and pink are good options. Just be sure to pair them with more neutral-colored bottoms.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They may be comfy, but oversized hoodies are more sloppy than stylish. Fitted hoodies are much more fashionable and ensure that you\u2019ll feel <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">look great all day long.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Save the faded and holey hoodies for yard work and lazy Saturdays at home.
