Sweatshirts & Hoodies
FAQ
What fabric blend are the kids' hoodies and sweatshirts made from?
Most of the kids' hoodies and sweatshirts at Army Surplus World are made from a 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend. This combination balances softness and breathability from the cotton with the durability and shape retention of polyester. Some styles also feature a fleece lining or a poly-cotton camo outer shell for extra warmth and texture.
What construction features make these kids' hoodies durable enough for active wear?
The kids' hoodies at Army Surplus World use double-needle stitching throughout to reinforce seams and extend the life of the garment. Many styles also feature double-lined hoods, 1x1 ribbed cuffs and waistbands with spandex for a snug fit, and pill-resistant air jet yarn to keep the fabric looking good wash after wash. These details make them a solid choice for active kids.
Are these sweatshirts appropriate for wearing to summer camp or outdoor activities?
These sweatshirts and hoodies are well-suited for summer camp evenings, outdoor adventures, and cooler days at the campsite. The cotton-poly blends are breathable enough for moderate activity while providing the warmth kids need when temperatures drop. Camo pullover styles with fleece linings are particularly practical for layering during outdoor programs or field trips.
Which military branch options are available in the kids' hoodie and sweatshirt collection?
The kids' sweatshirt and hoodie collection at Army Surplus World includes styles representing different military branches, including Army, Marine Corps, and Navy. Options come in both pullover sweatshirt and hooded styles, with branch names or logos screen printed on the front. This makes them popular with military families and kids who want to show pride in a specific branch.
How should I size a hoodie for a child who is between sizes?
For kids between sizes, sizing up is generally the better choice with hoodies and sweatshirts. A slightly larger fit allows room for layering underneath, which is useful for camping trips or outdoor activities in cooler weather. The ribbed cuffs and waistbands on most styles help keep a looser fit from looking sloppy and ensure the sleeves stay in place during active play.
