When starting a streetwear or gym apparel brand, the custom hoodie is a staple product. However, many founders struggle when choosing between the two most popular fabrics: Fleece and French Terry.
Fleece: Warmth and Softness
Fleece is brushed on the inside, breaking the yarn to create a fuzzy, incredibly soft texture. This traps air and provides excellent insulation. It is ideal for winter wear and cozy, oversized streetwear fits.
French Terry: Breathability and Structure
French Terry features loops of yarn on the inside, rather than being brushed. It is lighter, more breathable, and highly moisture-absorbent. This makes it the superior choice for athletic warm-ups and spring/summer collections.
At Bays Sports, we source premium heavyweight cotton blends for both Fleece and French Terry, ensuring your brand delivers luxury quality.
