Sweatshirts Trendy the Rest of the Year!

Sweatshirts, big last fall and this winter, are projected to be one of the trendiest clothing items for the rest of 2012. This versatile item appeals to all age groups and is very comfortable. These qualities make hoodies a great choice for promotional clothing.

Hoodies were popular in the 1980’s and often worn with matching sweats. In the past few years they made a comeback with the Gen X and extreme sports crowd. Then, the last couple of years the hoodie style sweatshirt exploded. It has been a fashion item for fall and winter in the last couple of years and its popularity just keeps growing, even appearing in the hottest fashion shows.

Hoodie style sweatshirts can also be embroidered or silk screened with your company logo for business purposes. They can be worn by employees or given away to customers. Each time someone wears your hoodie you are getting free advertising; you are growing your brand.

One of the new trends for fall is the vintage look hoodie. This hoodie looks ‘old’. It has frayed edges, ripped seams, and may be somewhat faded. Another trend is high quality, thick cotton fabrics. Your employees and customers will appreciate and wear a hoodie that is comfortable and warm.

Colors for fall follow the vintage trend. Experts are predicting stonewashed blue, gray, antique white, and earth tones will be the popular colors for the season. When designing your promotional hoodie keep in mind that you do not want it to be too colorful. These earth tones and vintage fabric colors work well as a neutral background to make your logo pop.

Eco-friendly clothing is also popular for fall 2012. Promotional hoodies in eco-friendly cotton will let your customers and the people who work for you know that you are making a company effort to protect the environment. This appeals to a broad range of the buying public and will only increase your customer base.
