Custom Hoodies for Businesses & Teams: The Complete 2026 Guide
By The Velocity Wear Team
Custom hoodies are one of the most popular ways for businesses, teams and clubs to look unified and build identity — and ordering them well is mostly about a few smart decisions made up front. This guide walks through fabric, branding, sizing across a group and budget, so your order arrives looking professional and on-brand.
Choose the right fabric for the job
For everyday staff and team wear, a mid-weight 300–340 GSM hoodie balances comfort and cost. For premium brand merch or cold-weather kit, a heavyweight 380–450 GSM fleece feels and photographs better. Always confirm the GSM in writing and, for larger orders, request a sample.
Decide how to brand them
- Embroidered left-chest logo — the professional, uniform-ready standard.
- Large back print — great for team names, slogans or event branding.
- Sleeve and hood details — subtle touches that lift perceived quality.
- Custom neck labels and tags — for a fully branded, retail-ready finish.
Get sizing right across a group
Sizing is where group orders go wrong. Collect everyone’s size in advance with a simple size chart, order a few spares in the most common sizes, and confirm whether your chosen style runs true-to-size, oversized or fitted. A pre-production sample helps you check the fit before committing the whole order.
Budget and bulk discounts
Hoodie pricing drops as your headcount rises, because setup is spread across more pieces — up to 40% off at higher volumes. Kitting out 50 staff is far cheaper per unit than 20. Use the instant price calculator to see your per-piece price for the exact quantity you need, in your currency.
Design it before you order
Upload your logo to the online Design Studio, drop it onto a hoodie in your brand colour, position the chest and back prints, and preview the result in 3D. Once it looks right, request a quote and we will handle artwork, sampling and production with managed reorders for next time.
