Designing Your Own Hoodie FAQs

How do I customize a hoodie?

Hoodies can be customized by adding a design to the front, back, sleeves or even the hood.  With us, you can print on all kinds of unique places to make your ideas come to life. 

Screen printing is the most popular way to add a design to a hoodie, but we also do digital printing, embroidery, tackle twill lettering and vinyl names and numbers. The type of decoration used can depend on the design, the products, your budget, and the number of items being printed.

Can you print photos on hoodies?

Of course! Photos look great on hoodies. It’s as simple as dragging and dropping the photo file into our Design Studio and setting it to your desired size. 

That said, photos aren’t the only thing we can put on your custom hoodie. We can print logos, lettering, illustrations, and just about anything else you can think of. Need a specific color? Our Pantone matching system will ensure your artwork is as vibrant as you envisioned it.

How much does it cost to make your own hoodie?

Cost is dependent on a few factors, including the style of hoodie, how many are being printed, and the number of ink colors. Our rolling discount approach determines your cost on a per-piece basis.

Let’s take the Hanes Ultimate Cotton Hoodie as an example. If you were to order one hoodie, the cost would be $46.68 per piece. If you were to order 10, however, the cost would be $34.98 per piece. 

We strive to make your order as affordable as possible. Regardless of how simple or complex your design is, you’ll never be hit with hidden fees or misleading add-ons.

What are the best hoodies to print on?

If you want the best bang for your buck, choose the Gildan Heavy Blend Hoodie. It’s thick enough for cold-weather workouts, durable enough to wear every day, and comes in a wide variety of colors. It absorbs ink well, meaning your design will look its best.

If you’re looking for something a little more special, go for the Bella Canvas Sponge Fleece Hoodie. It offers superior comfort and fit, and takes ink beautifully. Not to mention it’s probably the softest hoodie we’ve ever felt.

What is a heavy blend hoodie?

“Heavy blend” is a term which refers to the weight and makeup of the fabric used. For example, Gildan’s Heavy Blend Hoodie has a weight of eight ounces and is made up of equal parts cotton and polyester. The Hanes Ultimate Cotton Pullover is another heavyweight hoodie we carry, along with Fruit of the Loom’s Sofspun Hoodie.
