01 — In short
Why garment-dye a hoodie?
Dyeing the finished hoodie softens the fleece and gives a lived-in colour, with slightly darker seams. It is a premium streetwear finish.

03 — Choosing the weight
Fleece weights compared.
Hoodies are made in brushed fleece (soft and fluffy inside) or French terry (small loops inside). Weight is shown in GSM and ounces.
| Weight | In ounces | What it suits |
|---|---|---|
| 280–350 GSM | 8.3–10.3 oz | Light. French terry and spring hoodies. |
| 350–400 GSM | 10.3–11.8 oz | Mid. Everyday hoodies and sweatshirts. |

| 450–500 GSM and up | 13.3–14.7 oz and up | Extra heavy. Boxy, structured statement pieces. |
