Gildan Gildan Hammer Maxweight Hooded Sweatshirt
Description
The Gildan Hammer Maxweight Hooded Sweatshirt (style code GD231) is a heavy-weight unisex hoodie engineered for durability and comfort. Constructed from a 75% cotton/25% polyester cotton-faced blend at 360gsm, it offers a substantial handfeel and a classic fit suitable for everyday wear. The tubular body and drop shoulder create a relaxed profile while 1x1 ribbed cuffs and hem with spandex help retain shape. A tear out label and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification ensure wearer comfort and responsible production.
Designed for custom printing and branding, the double-lined hood with self-colour drawcord — easily removable via discreet eyelets — plus a front pouch pocket provide practical styling and decoration areas. The cotton-faced finish and high stitch density make this sweatshirt ideal for embroidery, screen print and transfer techniques, making it a reliable choice for workwear, clubs or premium merchandise needs.
