What Goes Into Choosing the Right Wholesale Hoodie
For a regular-fit pullover, compare P280 at 8.8 oz, 298 GSM and 70/30 cotton-poly fleece. For a heavyweight pullover, compare 15001 at 12 oz, 407 GSM and 80/20 brushed fleece.
Choose the fit and fabric before setting the size and color quantities. The clothing-brand launch guide covers assortment planning.
Fabric Weight: The First Specification That Matters
Three Layer labels 5108 and 5109 at 7.8 oz and the sleeveless 3130 at 8.0 oz as lightweight. P280 is midweight at 8.8 oz. Y300 uses the same 8.8 oz, 70/30 fleece specification. The heavyweight 15001 is 12 oz. See the hoodie weight comparison for the product specifications.
Blend Ratio: Cotton and Polyester
5108, 5109 and 15001 use 80/20 cotton-poly fleece. The 3130 uses 80/20 French terry with a flat terry interior. P280 and Y300 use 70/30 fleece. None of these styles is suitable for sublimation.
Construction Checks
5109 has genuine YKK zippers. Three Layer garments have tear-away labels for relabeling. Y300 has no hood drawstring in any size. Inspect the selected sample, measure fit and test the actual decoration before approving the bulk run.
