Gildan® Heavy Blend™ Hooded Sweatshirt Style: 18500

When it comes to dependable, comfortable, and versatile hoodies, the Gildan Heavy Blend Hooded Sweatshirt Style: 18500 has long been a top choice. This sweatshirt blends functionality with timeless style, making it perfect for everyday wear, outdoor activities, and team or organizational apparel. Designed with a premium cotton and polyester blend, reinforced stitching, and a cozy fleece interior, the Gildan Heavy Blend 18500 is built to keep you warm while standing up to everyday use.


Premium Fabric Blend for Comfort and Durability

The foundation of this hoodie is its 8-ounce, 50/50 cotton/poly blend. This fabric pairing delivers the best of both worlds: the natural softness and breathability of cotton with the strength and wrinkle-resistance of polyester. The result is a hoodie that feels cozy against the skin while maintaining a durable structure that resists wear and tear.

For the Heather options, the sweatshirt is crafted with a 60/40 poly/cotton blend, adding an even lighter, smoother texture. This versatility in fabric makes it an excellent choice for those who want consistent comfort without compromising on strength.


Classic Hoodie Features

The Gildan Heavy Blend Hooded Sweatshirt Style: 18500 has all the traditional elements of a well-constructed hoodie, with a few added features that enhance its performance and appeal.

  • Double-Lined Hood with Dyed-to-Match Drawcord: Adds warmth, durability, and an adjustable fit.

  • Front Pouch Pocket: A convenient space to keep your hands warm or carry essentials like your phone, keys, or wallet.

  • 1×1 Rib Knit Cuffs and Waistband with Spandex: Ensures flexibility, helps retain shape, and provides a snug, comfortable fit.

  • Double-Needle Stitching at Waistband and Cuffs: Reinforces high-stress areas, preventing fraying and extending the life of the hoodie.

  • Recycled High-Performing Black Tear-Away Label: Offers comfort while being eco-friendly and easy to remove if needed.

Additionally, the Safety Green color is compliant with ANSI/ISEA 107 high-visibility standards, making it a great option for work environments where safety and visibility are essential.


Comfort That Lasts All Day

With its fleece-lined interior, this sweatshirt provides a soft and warm feel that makes it ideal for colder temperatures or layering during transitional weather. Unlike bulkier outerwear, the Gildan Heavy Blend Hoodie offers warmth without weighing you down. Its midweight construction ensures that you stay cozy but never overheated, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor wear.

The classic fit is relaxed and roomy without being oversized, allowing for freedom of movement and easy layering over t-shirts or under jackets.


Built to Withstand Daily Use

One of the standout features of the Gildan Heavy Blend Hooded Sweatshirt is its durability. From the reinforced double-needle stitching to the ribbed cuffs and waistband, every detail is designed to help this hoodie last through regular wear and washing.

The cotton/poly blend fabric is resistant to shrinking and wrinkling, meaning it will maintain its shape and polished look longer than all-cotton alternatives. This makes it especially appealing for organizations, teams, and businesses that need reliable apparel that looks sharp after repeated use.
