Black Hoodies & Sweatshirts from £2.34: Blank, Bold and Built to Last

• Hard-working and versatile. Black suits uniforms, nights out, streetwear and sportswear, and works in every season.
• Forgiving. A black hoodie hides everyday marks better than a light one, which matters for staff, schools and clubs.
• Strong contrast. Light thread and ink stand out sharply on black, so logos look crisp.
• Easy to sell. Black is the safe, high-demand choice for retail ranges and merch.

• Black hoodies: 179 styles, from the bestselling Gildan 18500 and GD057 to the Just Hoods JH001 and Radsow London hoodie. Browse them all in black hoodies.
• Crewnecks: 103 styles with a crew neck. See more black crewneck sweatshirts, including the Gildan 18000, for a clean chest or back design.
• Zip-ups: 81 styles, from the Gildan 18600 to the SOL'S Stone. Browse more zippered options, and keep artwork clear of the zip.
• More cuts: black cardigans, cropped styles, 16 oversized styles for streetwear, and smarter V-neck sweatshirts for front-of-house staff.

Dress everyone with black men's, black women's and black kids' styles, plus baby sweatshirts for the youngest team members.

The range runs from lightweight (50 styles up to 220g/m²) to a core of 194 styles at 260–290g/m², and 90 heavier still.

• Cotton-polyester blends, such as the Gildan Heavy Blend, resist shrinkage and pilling, which keeps black looking sharp for longer.
• Cotton-rich builds are smooth and absorbent for print. See 100% cotton black sweatshirts for the purest option.
• Fleece and micro fleece styles add warmth for outdoor teams. 27 styles are organic, and 8 use recycled materials, for brands with an eco story.

Black needs the right method to look its best:

• Embroidery: available on 37 black styles. White, silver, gold and bright thread stand out sharply against black, and it suits left-chest logos.
• Digital print: available on 68 styles. Printing on a dark garment is a different process from printing on white, so check how your printer handles dark bases, and view a sample first.
• Screen print: available on 16 styles, good for bold artwork in larger runs.
• Design online: 101 black styles carry the Custom option. Browse all custom sweatshirts, or request a quote for anything not covered.

• Wash inside out, on a cool cycle, and avoid harsh detergents.
• Wash black away from lighter garments, because lint and fluff show more on dark fabric.
• Avoid high-heat drying, which can fade black faster and stress printed designs.

• Businesses and teams: staff uniforms that look smart and hide wear.
• Schools, clubs and sports teams: durable kit that stays presentable.
• New brands and creators: the colour most collections start with. See how to launch your apparel brand.
• Printers and agencies: reliable blanks for client work. See our solutions for printers.
