Youth Hoodie Blanks for School Programs, Athletic Teams, and Matching Sets

Youth hoodies are among the most-worn custom apparel items in the school and youth program market — they get used from September through May and are the garment that students and young athletes are most likely to keep and wear beyond the program context. The Gildan 18500B's 8 oz fleece weight matches the adult 18500, which means adult-youth matching set orders run from a consistent fabric family with no visible weight or texture difference between sizes.

School booster clubs, athletic departments, youth recreational leagues, church youth programs, and after-school organizations across NJ and the tri-state area use the 18500B as the default youth hoodie blank because its construction communicates quality without moving into premium pricing. The six-colorway range covers Black, Navy, Royal, Red, Sport Grey, and Light Pink — the color palette that covers the majority of school and organizational color programs.

Compatible Printing and Decoration Methods

The Gildan 18500B accepts the following decoration methods:

• DTF transfers (chest and back placements)

• Screen printing
