What it's good for

Heavyweight hoodies and crewnecks, premium sweatpants and joggers, cropped sweatshirt tops, oversized streetwear silhouettes, structured loungewear, weighted blankets, and any project where you want a sweatshirt fabric with real body. Pair it with our matching rib and jersey trim (sold separately) for full garment construction.

Hand feel and drape

Heavy and substantial without being stiff. The loopback interior is dense and plush. Holds shape, drapes cleanly over the body, and softens beautifully with washing. This is the weight most luxury hoodies are built from.

Care

Cold machine wash, tumble dry low or line dry. Low iron if needed. No bleach. Pre-wash before cutting. Expect 3-5% shrinkage first wash.

Sold by the yard

Retail fabric is available by the yard. For production quantities, wholesale begins at one full roll; roll yardage varies by fabric.
