Our extra services for hoodie orders

- GOTS certificate PDF on request — organic hoodie orders (Stanley/Stella Cruiser) get the current GOTS certificate as PDF on request.
- One volume ladder for all brands — you can mix Cruiser + Open Hood + 18500 in one order; the tier is calculated per model (all colours and sizes together).
- Sponsor-layout service — we lay out club orders with a sponsor back on request (price on request).
Hoodie care guide — keep print and embroidery lasting
Wash temperature. 30 °C standard for printed or embroidered hoodies. Organic hoodies (Stanley/Stella Cruiser, B&C Inspire) need 30 °C maximum. Mass-market hoodies (FOTL Premium, Gildan 18500) tolerate 40 °C, but 30 °C is better for print preservation.
Wash inside out. Print and embroidery don't directly contact the drum interior. This reduces print-surface wear.
Close zips. On zip hoodies always close before washing — prevents zip teeth from scuffing the fabric.
No tumble drying on DTG print. DTG print loses colour depth noticeably faster in the dryer. Air-drying extends print durability. Embroidery and screen print tolerate the dryer better.
Iron inside out and not directly on the print. When ironing is necessary (e.g. for hoodies with embroidery after long storage), only inside out and not directly on the finished area.
Hoodie cuts explained — Open Hood, pullover, crewneck
Hoodie (classic). Hooded pullover with kangaroo pocket and usually drawcord. Examples: Stanley/Stella Cruiser, FOTL Premium Hooded Sweat, Gildan 18500.
Open Hood. Hoodie without drawcord — specifically for school and kindergarten procurement due to DIN EN 14682. Example: B&C Open Hood (WUI24). Visually almost identical to a classic hoodie, but compliant with safety specifications for classes 1–7.
Crewneck sweater (aka sweatshirt). Pullover without hood, round-neck. Examples: Stanley/Stella Roller (STSU868), Thinker (STSU269). Popular in the eco-brand and fashion-label context because the clean neckline makes the chest logo design stand out better.
Zip hoodie (aka cardigan). Hoodie with front zip. Here: Mantis Cardigan, B&C ID.205. Popular with workwear crews and outdoor brands.
Cropped hoodie. Shortened hoodie variant (often women's line). On request via Stanley/Stella or the Mantis range.
Volume discount for hoodies — example calculations
50 FOTL Premium Hooded Sweats with two-sided DTF: The volume ladder (15 % from 50 pieces) applies to the hoodies only, not to the print. DTF runs as digital print without set-up and costs €2.48 (up to 15 × 10 cm) to €5.00 (up to 45 × 35 cm) net per side at 50 pieces — e.g. chest up to 15 × 10 cm + back up to 40 × 25 cm = €2.48 + €4.16 = €6.64 net per piece.
100 B&C Open Hoods with embroidery + flex print: The volume ladder (25 % from 100 pieces) applies to the hoodies only. At 100 pieces embroidery costs, e.g. for a chest logo 8 × 8 cm (64 cm², tier up to 70 cm²), €5.28 net per piece plus digitising €44.00 net per order; the flex class names are available on request.
300 Gildan 18500 with two-sided screen print (single colour per side): The volume ladder (30 % from 200 pieces) applies to the hoodies only, not to print or setup. At 300 pieces the screen print on white hoodies costs 2 × €0.99 = €1.98 net per piece plus €40 set-up per order (2 screens, €20 per screen, net). On coloured hoodies each side is charged as 2-colour because of the white underbase: 2 × €1.10 = €2.20 net per piece, plus €80 set-up (4 screens).
