Select From Hoodie And Sweatshirt Colors, Brands, And Features

When selecting a sweatshirt or hoodie for your custom design, there’s so much more to consider than the general style. Good Ink offers a variety of brands with numerous colors and features so that you can find the perfect style for your custom sweatshirts.

Popular Hoodie Colors

These days, hoodies and sweatshirts come in just about any color imaginable. Neutrals like black, gray, and navy are classic choices that will go with anything. Sporty colors like red, blue, gold, and green are particularly popular for schools and sports teams. Softer colors like heather grays, soft blues, and even pinks have risen in popularity as well. For a unique look, some styles are even available with uneven washes that create a marbled look.

Popular Brands

Different brands offer different sweatshirt styles, colors, and features. Good Ink offers a number of popular brands so that you can customize brands you love, or find a new favorite brand.

Sweatshirt Features To Consider

Many of our custom sweatshirts have additional features that set them apart from standard sweatshirts. Look for sweatshirts with the following features:

• Anti-pilling: Pilling is what happens when tiny balls appear on the surface of the fabric, caused by loose fibers clumping together. Anti-pilling means the sweatshirt fabric will maintain a smooth, soft surface through many washes. 
• Colorfast fabric: The fabric won’t fade or change color with washing or exposure to the elements. 
• Garment-dyed: Pieces are individually dyed, making them unique and one of a kind, as well as highly saturated with color.
• Raglan sleeves: Raglan sleeves extend all the way to the neckline, creating a diagonal seam that extends from the collarbone to the underarm. This creates a distinctive look that many people love. 
• Tear-away label: The label on the inside of the sweatshirt can easily be torn out. Some people find that it’s more comfortable to get rid of any potentially scratching tags. This is also important for businesses looking to sell their custom sweatshirts, as the manufacturer tag can easily be replaced with your own tag.

Customizing Your Sweatshirts

We offer several ways to customize your sweatshirts, enabling you to create a look as unique as your brand.

Custom Screen Printed Sweatshirts

Screen printing is a technique that allows for the personalization of your design through the selection of various types and colors of inks. For a simple design, you might choose only one color, or you can incorporate multiple colors into your design for a bolder look. Different types of inks provide different looks for your apparel. You can choose from the following for your screen-printed sweatshirts:

• Plastisol: Plastisol is a classic screen printing ink. It creates a bright, bold print in just about any color, and it can be used on almost any type of garment.
• Water-base: Water-based ink creates a soft, vintage-looking print. It works best when using darker inks on lighter-colored garments. 
• Glow in the Dark: A fun feature to add for nighttime or blacklight-lit events.
• Puff: This old-school printing technique creates a three-dimensional print that’s raised above the surface of your fabric.
• Metallic: The ink itself has a shimmery quality, giving metallic prints a smooth, opaque, shiny finish.

Full-Color Prints

Screen printing can get expensive when you want to add many colors, and it’s difficult to achieve a photorealistic design with this process. We have some special techniques for when you want a full-color photograph incorporated into your design. 

• Simulated Process: Simulated process printing is a screen printing technique that allows us to incorporate more colors into a design using fewer screens and inks. Because of the complexity of screen printing complex images with many colors, this can be a little more expensive than simpler prints and requires a higher minimum order number. 
• Full Color Transfers: An alternative method to screen printing for images with many colors. Powdered plastisol ink is printed onto a sheet, and then transferred to your shirt using a heat press. This works on all types of fabrics, holds up well, and is a great way to capture all the colors of a photograph. 

Custom Embroidered Sweatshirts

For a beautiful, high-end look, custom embroidery can take your sweatshirt game to the next level. We can utilize flat embroidery to create just about any logo or design. 

Personalize Your Sweatshirts With A Name On The Back

Custom sweatshirts are popular for sports teams and sporting events. One key customization teams love is being able to include a name and/or number on the back of the sweatshirt. We make it possible to include a different name on the back of each sweatshirt in your order. To do this, we create names and numbers digitally and cut them out of heavy-duty vinyl that is heat-pressed onto shirts. The end result has a slightly different look and feel to screen printed designs, but it lasts just as long. 

Occasions For Creating Custom Sweatshirts

Custom sweatshirts are a great option for events during the colder months and for giving your team an apparel option that will keep them warm in chilly weather. Consider creating custom sweatshirts for the following events, occasions, and groups:

• Warm-up gear for a sports team
• Spirit wear for schools
• Casual company wear
• Local outdoor events in cold weather
• Spirit wear for sporting events
• Sorority or fraternity sweatshirts
• Branded business sweatshirts

Custom Hoodie FAQs

How Much Does A Custom Sweatshirt Cost?

The cost of custom sweatshirts and hoodies is dependent on a number of factors, including the type of product and brand you want your design printed on, what type of printing or embroidery you select, and the number of sweatshirts you want to order. We recommend reaching out to our team for a quote for the most accurate pricing. 

How Do I Order Custom Sweatshirts For A Group?

Creating custom products for a large group can be tricky. In order to collect sizing information, we recommend creating a survey so that each group member can select their preferred size.

When you may want to provide a variety of apparel styles, colors, and sizes to satisfy everyone in a group, keeping track of that information can become a big task. We recommend creating a Jotform to collect orders from your group. Once you have input from your group, tell us what you want to order, and we’ll take care of the rest. 

What Design Limitations Should I Be Aware Of?

If you opt to create your own design, we recommend that you send us your design file in an EPS, AI, SVG, or PDF file so it will come out looking as good as possible. We can also work from PNG and JPG images, but these should have a resolution of at least 300 DPI so that the image doesn’t come out looking pixelated or blurry. If you have a design in some other format, we can convert it to a usable format at no additional cost. 

Designs can contain as many as twelve colors, but in order to keep your cost down, we recommend limiting the number of colors incorporated into your design. 

Can I Include My Logo In My Custom Design?

Absolutely! Send us your logo in one of the formats listed above, or we can convert your logo into a printable design file for you. We’ll let you know if there’s anything we recommend tweaking to make it look as good as possible on your custom apparel. We just ask that you make sure you have the right to print the logo you want on your apparel. 

How Long Do Custom Sweatshirts Take To Print?

Most of our custom products have a turnaround time of 2-3 weeks. This can vary depending on the type of customization you select. We’ll provide you with a more accurate timeline when you request a quote. Once your invoice has been fully paid, we’ll begin working on your order right away.

Is There A Minimum Order Number For Custom Hoodies?

The minimum order number for our custom products starts at 10 items. Some specialty printing methods have a higher minimum order number. We’ll provide you with minimum order numbers when we send you a quote. 

How Do I Care For A Printed Hoodie? 

To keep screen-printed hoodies and sweatshirts looking their best, be gentle on them when washing. Wash inside out and on the gentlest cycle possible, and line dry whenever possible. These steps will help prevent other garments from rubbing against the print. It’s best to avoid ironing screen-printed items, but if you have to iron one, avoid ironing directly on the print. Turn the garment inside out, or put another piece of fabric between the garment and the iron to protect the print.
