Which hoodie should your crew get?
- Gildan Softstyle pullover (SF500): the lowest price per head and the most colors (15), with a jersey-lined hood and a ring-spun cotton face. Classic fit.
- Gildan Softstyle full-zip (SF600): the zip-up version of the SF500, with a brushed inside, in 4 colors.
- BELLA+CANVAS Sponge Fleece (3719): sponge fleece in a retail fit (a trimmer cut than a classic fit), with side seams. For teams who will wear it off the job too, in 12 colors.
- Carhartt Midweight (CTK121): the standard crew hoodie: a three-piece hood with drawcord, triple-stitched main seams and a loose fit. The CTK288 adds Carhartt's logo down the left sleeve, and the CTK122 is the zip-up.
- Carhartt Rain Defender Paxton (CT100615, zip CT100614): the heaviest fleece here, with a water-repellent finish and a jersey-lined hood. For crews who work outside in cold, wet weather.
