Garment Type

Hoody is a word that reffers to a sweater, sweatshirt or pullover that has a hood. Most of the Hoodies have one big pocket in the front that you can put both hands in. A few of the Hoodies have zippers, but those aren't as common as the more normal pull-over ones.

The hoodie was born of modest origins. Champion Products, which began as the Knickerbocker Knitting Company in 1919, claims to have made the first hooded sweatshirt. Originally a sweater mill, Champion began making sweatshirts in the early 1930s once it developed methods to sew thicker underwear material.

According to Harold Lipson, a former president at Champion who started at the company in 1934, the hood was first added to sweatshirts in order to protect athletes and laborers from the elements. Employees at cold-storage warehouses and tree surgeons working through the winter were calling for a garment that would provide more warmth than their long underwear. Meanwhile Champion was working directly with high schools to determine their apparel needs, eventually making big double-thickness hooded sweatshirts that football and track athletes wore on the sidelines in bad weather.

Actually Hoodies are a symbol of belonging, whether to a group of isolated or disaffected youth trying to look mysterious or to hide their faces from cctv while pilfering goods in a store, a use that requires the use of the hood or to pop culture's or fashion's elite (rap music has a strong association with rebellion as well as hoodies in society’s mind). Of course, hoodies worn in school or within a Uni town or campus are an assertion of belonging..

Like much else we wear, hoodies also serve a functional purpose -- they are less formal than a pullover, often cheaper, often also with side pockets one can slide one's hands into, and are an altogether more cosy and comfortable piece of clothing than most other outer layering options.

1) Normal Wash Hoodies Production:

Normal wash Hoodies Production consists of washing garments in hot water with adequate detergent and softener, rinse with plain water and dry in tumble dryer until it is 100% dry. Some sodium is added to lend the Hoodies have a prominent washed look. Water temperature, proportion of components of wash is adjusted as per requirement of wash and types of fabric; the Hoodies are made of. The softener makes the fiber soft and tumble-drying makes the fabric fluffier. Our expert technician can handle washing by an expedient way to solve many problems arising out during washing. Washing can also affect different Hoodies parts differently. Shell fabric may be solid color while pocket may be white pocketing piece. After washing, it may appear that pocketing piece has been stained.

2) Pigment Wash Hoodies Production:

Pigment Wash Hoodies production is similar to normal wash but a bit costlier. The Hoodies have a solid color pigment dye. The requirement is that the color should fade evenly to lend the Hoodies have a prominent washed look. Pigment wash requires a higher temperature of water than a normal wash.

3) Bleach Wash Hoodies Production:

Bleach wash Hoodies production means that bleach chemical is used in water while washing in a tumble washer. Strict washing time is a requirement with such wash because otherwise the Hoodies may be over bleached and the color cannot be reversed.

4) Stone Wash Hoodies Production:

Stone wash Hoodies production means washing Hoodies with special stones so that Hoodies achieve a very strong washed effect. Volcanic stones are used in such wash abrade exposed parts of the Hoodies, this idea of washing with porous volcanic stones is to give the Hoodies a strong and rough wash to achieve the pronounced washed effect through abrasion on the exposed areas, such as the seams and pocket corners.
Sometimes, bleach is added to the wash so that the color fades in a more pronounced manner. This is done to make navy Hoodies into a more faded light blue. Such wash requires a lot of skill, experience; workmanship and expertise so that desired results are achieved.

5) Acid Wash Hoodies Production:

Acid wash Hoodies production is a patented process and can be used only by permission. Acid wash Hoodies production is also a kind of stone wash. The wash is performed in two steps: in the first step, Hoodies are washed without water and in the 2nd step with water.
The treated stones carry the chemical to bleach the exposed parts and bleach them to white. But the hidden parts remain untouched. Whitening agents are often added to water during rinse to make the white color in the Hoodies whiter to display acid wash.

6) Enzyme Wash Hoodies Production:

Enzyme wash Hoodies production is performed with a kind of live cell. Enzyme can break some fibers of fabric and gives the fabric special effect desired on the Hoodies. Enzyme wash provides the fabric a soft, sanded or “peached” effect very desirable on many Hoodies.

7) Caustic Wash Hoodies Production:

Caustic wash Hoodies production is a pre- printing wash. Caustic is a strong chemical with highly corrosive features. Prior to printing on cotton fabrics, gray goods are treated in boiling water with caustic, which also has strong cleaning power, especially for grease. This caustic wash Hoodies production can remove all soil, dirt, grease, fine particles of cotton seeds as well as all foreign materials. As a result, only pure cotton fiber in the fabric for printing is left. It leads to stability of printing and well-cleaned fabric. However, when we want to do caustic wash on Hoodies, we just do the opposite of the above; prior to printing, fabric is not treated with caustic wash for cleaning.
Printing is done on the row & unclean fabric so that about 30% of the printing done on the surface may eventually fade away. Finally, printed Hoodies are caustic washed. It leads to, about 30% of the printing washed away along with the foreign materials- leaving about 70% of the printing on the fabric. It eventually makes the design or stripe of the desired look. For this type of wash, the printing must be pigment print with a binder. Baking treatment should also be performed so that the color will stay on the fabric more or less securely to coincide with the caustic wash to be done later.

8) Garment Wash Hoodies Production And Over-Dye Hoodies Production:

This type of wash is also used for Hoodies to give them an exclusive look. Garment wash Hoodies production creates a unique but different look. In this process of wash, the lining or pocketing will pick up the color too. By this garment wash, direct dye or reactive dye same as dyeing fabrics or yarn may be used. Direct dye is cheap. So, direct dye may be utilized with the concomitant use of color fixing agent, after dying to make the color more stable. In case of solid color fabric staining within the Hoodies is not a problem. However, if Hoodies of different colors are washed together by the consumers, color may transfer to other Hoodies. Reactive dye is always preferable in this case.
