Boys' Hoodies - Plain, Customised And Fashionable

Any hoody can make a fashion statement. Boys’ hoodies provide a whole canvas available at the front and the back of the garment and many designers have taken advantage of this fact. Logos for companies, brand names and artwork associated with particular manufacturers and retailers can optimise their brand image in a very competitive market place.

Most merchandise that is sold at concerts, sports games and any major gig or convention will include amongst the programmes, t-shirts, knapsacks and memorabilia, a quality hoody incorporating the date, venue and artist or team you paid your ticket to see. It’s free advertising for them and you’ve paid them to advertise their product for free! Hoodies are no longer exclusive to skateboarders and surf dudes and there is a plethora of prints and designs available with which you can make political commentary or simply a fashion statement about prints and colours and what’s on trend at the moment. It’s even cool to go retro and wear vintage slogans and images on your hoody.

There are so many possible variations; cartoon characters from the major film studios and TV networks, sports teams, serious messages, outrageous statements, astrological signs, charity support – animals; endangered species, in distress or being exploited; hunger; children and worldwide famine; poverty, rainforests, illnesses and appeals for help with funds for victims of natural disasters all abound. If the design is ‘cool’ and the message or image is popular and appropriate even hoary old politicians and grey-haired grandmas can get away with wearing a hoody without becoming the butt of jokes that fashionistas would normally deliver when they lambast unfortunate individuals in the press for their fashion faux- pas, especially celebrities.

Girlfriends and sisters as well as male siblings often steal boys’ hoodies. Having a roomy and comfy fit they are pretty androgynous in their design and anyone can wear them regardless of their body shape. They are highly sought after if they sport a particular design that has a special appeal like a favourite band, team or wonderful piece of artwork like a musical instrument or an iconic city silhouette such as the Eiffel Tower or Sydney Harbour Bridge or the New York skyline.

Plain hoodies can of course be customised by some simple work of your own. Taking it to a t-shi

rt printing shop you could have your own photo printed on the front or the back or a special message or motivational motto for your team or group splashed across your hoody. Hoodies do lend themselves well to this type of customisation, even if it is only done with a large magic marker. It would not be cool to add on the contents of the haberdashery store though; buttons, beads and braid are seriously uncool adornments, print or dye is the only decoration really permitted unless you have a strong personality that can cope with the derisory looks and remarks you would probably attract to your garment. If this is your intention, that’s fine but you have been warned.
