Question 1

What is the difference between a sweatshirt and a hoodie?

Accepted Answer

While sweatshirts and hoodies are similar in design, hoodies feature a hood that can be worn up or down to cover the head. Sweatshirts do not have a hood. Additionally, hoodies are often made of thicker, warmer materials than sweatshirts, and may have a front pocket.

Question 2

Can I wear a sweatshirt in the summer?

Accepted Answer

While sweatshirts are typically associated with colder weather, they can still be worn in the summer. Choose a lighter-weight fabric or a short-sleeved sweatshirt to stay cool while still enjoying the comfort and style of a sweatshirt.

Question 3

Where can I buy blank crewneck sweatshirts in bulk in the U.S. with fast shipping?

Accepted Answer

Online wholesale platforms typically give you better deals on bulk apparel purchases, than brick and mortar stores generally. YouApparel is one online wholesale source that offers blank crewneck sweatshirts from leading brands in the United States, at very competitive wholesale prices. We don’t have a minimum order quantity either, and offer bulk discounts. We also offer free shipping for blank apparel orders with order value above $149. So the overall value you get out of bulk purchases in YouApparel is significant savings with a satisfying, hassle-free purchase experience.

Question 4

What are the best blank crewneck sweatshirts for starting a clothing brand?

Accepted Answer

We recommend styles from Independent Trading Company and Lane Seven for moderate budgets. These brands offer borderline mid-range styles that people will love to wear, and are hence more profitable. For a relatively thinner budget, crewneck sweatshirts from Jerzees and Gildan won’t disappoint. If you need them customized, you can source the blanks and get them customized the way you want with YouApparel’s apparel decoration services at low overall costs. We are sure it will give you a better deal than sourcing blanks from us and hiring a third party decorator for bulk customization.

Question 5

Which crewneck sweatshirt blanks have the softest hand feel out of the box?

Accepted Answer

A few, actually. Comfort Colors 1566 became popular very quickly due to its softness, comfort and customization-friendliness. YouApparel offers really low per-unit prices and better bulk discounts for this style. The PRM3500 midweight crewneck sweatshirt from Independent Trading Company is just as soft. Both these styles have a 30 singles yarn count, which means they are crafted to be extremely soft. Hanes F260 comes pretty close to these styles. If you prefer made in USA crewneck sweatshirts, we recommend the very soft Bayside 1102. Need something that’s exceptionally soft and sustainable? Go for the Lane Seven LS14004.

Question 6

Which crewneck sweatshirt blanks hold up best after 25+ washes?

Accepted Answer

Comfort Colors 1566, Independent Trading Company’s PRM3500, and most blank sweatshirts with higher pre-shrunk cotton content can easily last many wash cycles. We have feedback from customers who have been using the 1566 and PRM3500 regularly, and still don’t see any visible issues in the garments’ shape or fit after dozens of washes. Heavyweight crewneck sweatshirts in particular are built to last.

Question 7

What GSM/oz weight is ideal for premium-feel crewneck sweatshirts?

Accepted Answer

We recommend heavyweight crewneck sweatshirts for the premium feel. These styles also typically have over 300 GSM.

Question 8

Ring-spun vs. open-end cotton for crewnecks - what’s the real difference in feel and print quality?

Accepted Answer

Ring-spun cotton fabrics are softer, smoother, and considerably durable than regular cotton. They offer simply better print surfaces but may cost slightly more than open-end cotton. Open-end cotton is very durable. The fabric is rougher vyt can be printed. It’s better suited for heavy-duty or industrial uses.

Question 9

French terry vs. fleece crewnecks - what should I choose for year-round wear?

Accepted Answer

French terry is better suited for year-round wear, because it’s breathable and offers moderate warmth. Fleece crewnecks have better insulation properties, making them more suitable for colder weather and not year-round wear.

Question 10

Are garment-dyed crewneck sweatshirts worth the premium for my brand?

Accepted Answer

Depends on whether your brand is appealing to the “slow-fashion” trend. Garment-dyed crewneck sweatshirts can have a “patina effect”, which means its colors can fade over time giving it a unique aesthetic with time. This one-of-a-kind appeal is loved by many American consumers. This is also why garment-dyed sweatshirts can be quite profitable if you cater to the right audience. Rest assured, YouApparel offers blank garment-dyed sweatshirts at low per-unit prices, so your investment is minimized while the profit potential remains.

Question 11

What’s the best blank crewneck for embroidery (tight stitch density, low pilling)?

Accepted Answer

There are many blank crewneck styles in YouApparel that offer excellent results in embroidery. We recommend the Gildan 18000 (G180) and the IND3000 from Independent Trading Company, because our customers consistently praise the styles for the results with embroidery. But you can still find more alternatives just as better as these in our store, at the best wholesale prices. We can also embroider your picks with professional-grade quality at low overall costs.

Question 12

Which crewneck blanks have tear-away labels for easy rebranding?

Accepted Answer

There are many crewneck sweatshirt styles in YouApparel with tear-away labels. To list a few, check out the Gildan 18000, Independent Trading Co SS3000, Next Level 9002N, and Bella+Canvas 3901. These styles come in excellent color options too.

Question 13

Is there a crewneck with a kangaroo-style pocket (no hood) for streetwear?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Next Level 9001N Unisex Santa Cruz Pocket Sweatshirt.

Question 14

What are the warmest heavyweight crewneck sweatshirts in YouApparel?

Accepted Answer

IND3000, IND5000C and Bayside 1102 are very warm, and excellent cold weather essentials according to feedback from our customers.

Question 15

Which crewneck sweatshirt lines are made in the USA?

Accepted Answer

Bayside crewneck sweatshirts are made in the USA. You can also find blank crewneck sweatshirt styles in YouApparel that are made of US-grown cotton.

Question 16

Can you suggest good youth crewneck sweatshirts for schools and spirit wear?

Accepted Answer

Sure. Check out the Gildan 18000B if you need something warmer, or the Bella+Canvas 3901Y for something softer.

Question 17

What’s the difference between Gildan 18000, Hanes P160, and Jerzees 562MR?

Accepted Answer

There aren’t any big differences between these three styles. They all belong to the same weight class. Gildan 18000 obviously offers more color choices including high-visibility Safety Green color. The Hanes P160 and Jerzees 562MR are better when it comes to pill-resistance. The Hanes P160 can be classified as sustainable due to using 5% recycled polyester in its fabric. The P160 also features PrintPro® XP fleece technology, which means high stitch-density and superior printability compared to the other two styles. Gildan 18000 and Jerzees 562MR are more stretchable than the P160 from Hanes.

Question 18

What’s the best budget-friendly crewneck that still decorates cleanly?

Accepted Answer

The Jerzees 562MR and Gildan 18000.
