How it's built
Child-safe drawcords
School and children’s styles are made without free-end drawcords, in line with children’s apparel safety rules.
Reinforced stress points
Fusible backing behind eyelets and kangaroo pockets stops tearing where hoodies wear first.
Embroidery that stays flat
Chenille and appliqué are stitched over water-soluble or non-woven backing so heavy fabric does not pucker.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which is better, French terry or fleece?
French terry has loops on the inside and breathes well, which suits spring, autumn and active use. Brushed fleece has a soft napped inside and is warmer for winter. Both are available from 320 to 480 GSM.
Can school hoodies have drawcords?
For children’s and school uniform styles we do not use free-end drawcords. Hoods can be made without cords or with fixed alternatives, depending on the destination market’s rules.
How many hoodies fit in a carton?
Hoodies are bulky, so cartons hold fewer pieces than tees. The exact count depends on weight and size ratio — our carton & container calculator gives an estimate, and we confirm it on your order.
