NYC Graphic Crewneck vs NYC Factory NYC Crewneck Sweatshirt

Both are gray-khaki cotton-blend crewnecks with New York graphics, so the choice comes down to fit and finish. The NYC Graphic Crewneck is the sturdier build: an 8.1-oz. 70/30 blend, pre-shrunk, with air-jet spun yarn and double-needle stitching at the collar, shoulders, armholes, cuffs and hem. The NYC Factory sweatshirt is a lighter preshrunk fleece with a John Lennon-linked design and a 4.9 rating from 17 owners, though some report receiving the wrong size. Buy the NYC Graphic for durability and a classic unisex fit; buy the NYC Factory for the softer fleece feel and the more distinctive print.

• Choose the NYC Graphic Crewneck if you want the heavier, double-needle-stitched sweatshirt that holds its shape and resists pilling through repeated washing.
• Choose the NYC Factory crewneck if you want a soft preshrunk fleece with the John Lennon-linked New York design and a print made in the USA.
