Long Sleeves One Stop Shop

Our hoodies are made from midweight fleece fabric in the 8–10 oz./yd² range. The exact composition varies by style — each product page lists the specific fabric content. The interior face of the fleece is brushed to create the soft, napped texture that makes fleece comfortable against skin. This brushed interior is what distinguishes quality fleece from cheaper alternatives that feel rough or scratchy after a few washes.

Our hoodies are pre-shrunk during manufacturing, so the fit you order stays stable with normal care. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low. The most common cause of hoodie shrinkage is high-heat drying — the fleece fibers contract and don't recover. Sticking to low heat keeps the dimensions consistent and helps preserve the soft interior texture.

Our hoodies are midweight fleece, which makes them appropriate for cool to cold weather as a standalone layer. They're warm enough for fall, early winter, and cool spring days. For very cold weather, they work best as a mid-layer under a jacket or coat. If you want maximum warmth as a standalone piece, our heavyweight fleece sweatshirts are the better choice.

Our hoodies come in classic fit, which is the standard — straight through the body with room to layer a tee underneath and a body length that hits at the hip. For an oversized look, size up one. For a more fitted appearance, size down. Sizes run S through 3XL. Full measurements including chest width and body length are on each product page so you can cross-check against a hoodie you already own.

Both pullover and zip-up styles are available in the hoodies collection. Pullovers are simpler and cleaner-looking — no zipper hardware, no potential zipper failure point — and tend to be slightly warmer because there's no opening at the center front. Zip-ups are more versatile for temperature regulation since you can partially open them, and are easier to take on and off. Both styles use the same midweight fleece and brushed interior construction.

The main difference is the hood and typically the fabric weight. Our hoodies are midweight fleece with a hood and kangaroo pocket, designed as versatile everyday outerwear. Our fleece sweatshirts come in crewneck and polo collar options without hoods — they're slightly more structured in appearance and work better as smart-casual layering pieces. If you want maximum versatility and casual warmth, go with the hoodie. If you want something that looks slightly more considered or you prefer the clean look of a crew or collar, the fleece sweatshirt range is worth exploring.

Pilling in fleece happens when surface fibers break loose and tangle together — it's accelerated by rough washing conditions and abrasion. Our hoodies use a midweight fleece with tightly constructed fibers that resist pilling better than lightweight options. Washing cold on a gentle cycle (rather than a vigorous regular cycle) and drying on low heat are the most effective ways to minimize pilling over time. Washing inside-out also helps.

Every ComfyThreads hoodie is covered by our 100-day satisfaction guarantee.
