The Gildan Heavy Blend Hooded Sweatshirt (model 18500) is a pullover hoodie in an 8 oz 50/50 cotton-polyester fleece with a double-lined hood and matching drawstring. It is the blank hoodie that screen printers and embroiderers use most, because the flat, dense fleece holds ink and thread well and the spun yarn resists pilling. It suits teams, schools, events and anyone who wants a plain, warm, boxy hoodie rather than a fashion cut. Against softer retail hoodies it feels stiffer and less tailored, but it is more durable and takes customization better. Buyers rate it 4.6 out of 5 across more than 1,500 ratings, with most praise going to warmth, value and printability.

Owners rate it highly for warmth, durability and how well it takes printing. The main complaints are a stiff, boxy cut and a rougher hand than softer fashion hoodies.
The Gildan 18500 is a heavy blend hooded sweatshirt with a classic fit and tubular construction. It is made from an 8 oz fabric of 50% USA grown cotton and 50% polyester, which adds warmth and durability.
The hood is double-lined and has a matching drawstring. The fabric is made with spun yarn, which makes it softer and reduces pilling. A tear-away tag makes customizing easier.
The hoodie works well for screen printing and embroidery. It uses family sizing, and a youth version is available.
