FAQs

Is this hoodie suitable for custom printing?

What does 271gsm mean?

GSM stands for grams per square meter, which measures the weight and density of the fabric. 271gsm indicates a sturdy, midweight construction.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Yes, tumble dry on low heat to maintain the fit and quality of the fabric.

Does the hood have a drawstring?

Yes, it features a double-lined hood with a matching drawcord for added comfort.

Is the tag removable?

Yes, the garment features a tearaway label specifically designed to be removed easily for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Fabric surface shows small pills after multiple washes

While the air jet yarn is designed to reduce pilling, using a fabric shaver can easily remove any minor surface fibers.

Hoodie feels static-charged

Wash with a small amount of fabric softener or use a dryer sheet in the tumble dryer to neutralize static buildup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to pilling due to air jet yarn construction
  • Sturdy twin-needle stitching ensures longevity
  • Ethically manufactured with Oeko-Tex certification
  • Convenient tearaway label for a tag-free feel

Cons

  • Material is polyester-based rather than 100% cotton
  • Midweight fabric may not provide enough insulation for extreme winter temperatures
  • Limited to adult sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of your Gildan Heavy Blend Hoodie, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleach which can compromise the polyester fibers.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting to prevent static buildup and ensure the rib-knit cuffs maintain their elasticity.
  3. Ironing: If needed, use a cool iron on the reverse side. Avoid direct contact with the fabric surface to prevent heat damage or shine.
  4. Storage: Hang the hoodie on a wide-shouldered hanger when not in use to maintain the structure of the shoulder seams and hood.
