AS Colour Youth Supply Hood | 3033

Description

The AS Colour Youth Supply Hood is what happens when you apply adult-garment construction standards to youth sizing. At 290GSM, this cotton-poly blend sits in the midweight sweet spot — warm enough for morning practice or outdoor field trips, light enough that kids actually wear it. The fabric has the density to hold embroidery without puckering and accepts screen print ink with consistent coverage across the entire size run.

Who Orders It

Elementary and middle schools building spirit wear programs that need to survive a full academic year of playground abuse. Youth sports leagues — soccer clubs, swim teams, little league organizations — outfitting entire rosters in matching warmup gear. Summer camps and outdoor education programs where kids need a reliable layer that parents can wash repeatedly without the print cracking. Children’s brands launching wholesale programs who need a blank that doesn’t look or feel like a throwaway promo piece. Church youth groups and scouting organizations running fundraiser merchandise.

Decoration

The 290GSM weight and cotton-poly blend make this hoodie forgiving across decoration methods. Screen printing lays down clean with standard plastisol — the polyester content helps ink cure evenly without scorching. Embroidery holds well on the chest and back panels; use appropriate backing and you can push to 8,000+ stitches without distortion. DTG prints effectively on the cotton-dominant face, though expect slight texture on dark colorways. The kangaroo pocket and hood interior are workable for more adventurous placements if your program calls for it.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on this youth hoodie?
Screen printing is the most durable option for youth wear — it handles the wash cycles these garments actually see. Embroidery works well for smaller left-chest logos. DTG is viable for full-color artwork but consider plastisol transfers if you need maximum wash durability for younger kids.

Is this good for school spirit wear programs?
This is one of the most-ordered youth hoodies for school programs in our catalog. The 290GSM weight survives the school year, the preshrunk construction means the sizing stays consistent, and the price point works for fundraiser margins.

How does the sizing run?
AS Colour youth sizing runs true and consistent across production batches. Size 2 fits most 2-year-olds, scaling predictably up through size 14. Order a sample set if you’re building a program with specific fit requirements.

What’s the minimum order for custom decoration?
We work with programs from 12 pieces. Most decorated apparel programs start at 24–50 pieces. Request a quote and we’ll work with your specific order size.
