Puff Boys with Bibles Midweight Pullover Hoodie

This is the hoodie he grabs on the way to practice, wears home from church, and lives in once the weather turns, with the Boys with Bibles wordmark in a wavy puff print across the chest that you can feel as well as see. The fleece is midweight at 8.5 oz, warm enough for a cold morning and light enough that he won't overheat in a car or a gym. It comes in adult and youth fits, so father and son can wear the same hoodie, and both are the kind of classic pullover that becomes the one he reaches for first.

The fabric

An 8.5 oz (280 gsm) cotton and polyester blend fleece with a ring spun cotton face for a soft, smooth surface. Royal Heather runs 55% cotton and 45% polyester. Across both, the 32-singles face keeps the outside soft and even rather than rough or fuzzy, and the brushed inside traps warmth without the weight of a heavyweight hoodie, which is exactly what you want for a piece that gets worn in the car and the gym as much as outside.

How it fits

A standard fit with a generous cut in both the adult and youth sizing, roomy enough to layer over a tee and easy to move in. The 1x1 ribbing at the cuffs and waistband holds its stretch, so the sleeves and hem stay put instead of drooping out after repeated wear, and the youth cut gives him room to move and grow into it.

Construction and finishing

A jersey-lined hood that sits softer against the neck than raw fleece. The adult hoodie has a heavy gauge drawcord with metal eyelets that hold up far better than the plastic ones on a cheaper hoodie; the youth hoodie has no drawcord, which meets the safety standards for youth outerwear. Split-stitch double needle sewing on all seams and twill neck tape at the collar handle the stress points where hoodies usually give out first. These are the details that let it last years instead of a single season, and get handed down to a younger brother.

Choosing a fit

Adult runs true to adult sizing, X-Small through 3X-Large. Youth covers Small through X-Large. Both come in Royal Heather. Pick the fit first, then the size. Check the size chart against his measurements before ordering, especially for a younger wearer, since kids grow through a size fast.

Buying this as a gift

This is a safe gift for a teenager or a young man who is particular about how his clothes fit and feel, and just as easy for a boy who has opinions about what he wears. A soft, well-made pullover hoodie is a piece he'll actually reach for on his own, and most guys never buy enough of them for themselves. Check the size chart before you order to land the right fit.
