The complete guide to choosing the perfect t-shirt and hoodie: material, weight and fit

Hey, fashion enthusiast! I know technical details can sometimes be overwhelming, but I want to make things easier for you. Choosing the right hoodie or T-shirt isn’t just about style – it’s also about material, weight, and fit. So, let’s break it all down into simple terms!

Fabric Weight (g/m²) - What Does It Mean?

G/m² (grams per square meter) is the unit of measurement that indicates fabric density. The higher the number, the thicker and more structured the material.

  • 180 g/m² – Lightweight, breathable T-shirt, perfect for warmer days.
  • 240 g/m² – Denser, offering a premium look and added durability.
  • 280 g/m² – Versatile hoodie, suitable for all seasons.
  • 400 g/m² – Heavyweight, premium fabric, ideal for a thick, structured hoodie.

French Terry vs. Brushed - What’s the Difference?

  • French Terry – Slightly textured exterior with a smooth interior. Breathable and perfect for a lighter hoodie.
  • Brushed – Soft, plush interior that provides extra warmth and comfort.

Regular vs. Oversized - Which Fit is for You?

  • Regular Fit – Standard cut, falls naturally on the body, balanced between comfort and style.
  • Oversized Fit – Looser, more relaxed, offering a modern and comfortable look.
