Ideal For

The 5109 Premium Full Zip Hoodie is purpose-built for brands and decorators who need a zip-front blank with a refined, retail-quality hand feel. The 100% ringspun cotton face gives this piece a noticeably softer finish than standard fleece, a detail your clients will feel immediately. At 7.8oz, it sits in the sweet spot for layering pieces, outerwear programs, and year-round corporate apparel. The full-zip construction makes it ideal for employee uniforms, event staff outfitting, and branded retail where clients want easy on/off without pulling over the head. Twelve versatile colorways cover the core palette most brands need.

Fabric & Construction

Constructed from 264 GSM (7.8oz) 80/20 cotton-polyester fleece with a 100% ringspun cotton face yarn, the 5109 features a tighter, smoother surface compared to open-end cotton. That distinction matters for print clarity and hand feel. The 80/20 blend leans into cotton softness while the poly component adds shape retention and reduces pilling over time. The hood is fully lined with a heavy drawstring cord, and spandex-reinforced ribbing at cuffs and hem maintains structure through repeated laundering. Double-needle stitching at all major seams provides production-grade durability. The metal zipper runs the full front with a clean tape finish, the tear-away label enables private-label rebranding, and the regular fit provides consistent sizing across the full size run.

Decoration Guide

The ringspun cotton face delivers a smooth, tight-knit surface that takes ink and thread with precision, and screen printers will appreciate the consistent lay of the fabric. For left-chest embroidery (the most common placement on zip hoodies), the 80/20 weight holds stitching cleanly without puckering. DTG on zip hoodies requires careful platen alignment around the zipper, so results are good but shop workflow is slightly slower than pullover styles.

DTG	Good	Excellent results. Zipper requires platen adjustment
