![]() ![]() If you haven't had the chance-or, more accurately, the patience to line up for a chance-to wear a Supreme hoodie, you've been missing out. Materials: 100% cotton Fabric Weight: 390 GSM Sizes: XS-XXL Colors: Varies Regardless of the material, high-quality fabrics use long staple fibers which are both strong and smooth. Designers are crafting hoodies from all kind of materials like cashmere, wool, fleece, even super technical performance fabrics, each with their own unique properties and advantages. But hoodies come in more materials than the usual cotton or cotton-poly French terry you're used to seeing. For even better heat retention, some hoodies use a double-faced fabric, often with some kind of jersey or French terry for the exterior and a waffle-knit thermal fabric for the interior. Oftentimes, warmer hoodies have a brushed interior which not only provides a lush handfeel, but also better insulation. The warmest hoodies will use thick, heavyweight fabrics which normally start at about 12 ounces, or 400 GSM, and go up from there. If you're after a really warm hoodie, it's all about the fabric. Additionally, loopwheel fabrics are knit without any side seams which makes them more durable and comfortable. Self-actualized hoodies will use extremely rare loopwheel machines which are famed for their particular knitting style which uses the natural tension of gravity to knit a fabric that's unparalleled density and softness. Higher up on Maslow's Hoodie Hierarchy, a high quality hoodie should be made of fabric that's dense enough to not see through and have flush, flatlock stitched seams, along with smooth, double-faced hoods that won't rough up your hair. There are three basic tenants of a hoodie: soft, warm, durable.
