10 bestselling hoodies on Amazon

Versatile enough to wear with almost any casual outfit, hoodies have become wardrobe staples for many. They go with jeans and T-shirts, look great open over dresses and are also comfortable for lounging around the house.

It's not as simple as just finding any old hoodie and hoping for the best. You have a range of variables to consider, such as types of hoodies, colors and fit. These are some of the bestselling hoodies on Amazon so you can start your search for the perfect one for you.

In this article: Champion Women's Relaxed Reverse Weave Hoodie, Under Armour Men’s Rival Fleece Fitted Hoodie and Carhartt Men's Rain Defender Paxton Heavyweight Hooded Sweatshirt.

Types of hoodies

You'll find two main types of hooded sweaters: pullover hoodies and full-zip hoodies.

• Pullover: Pullover hoodies have no zip down the front, so you just pull them on over your head, like pullover sweaters. Some consider this the most iconic hoodie look and they're also warmer than those with zippers down the front. However, you have less flexibility over how you can wear them.
• Full-zip: Full-zip hoodies have zippers that run from collar to hem, giving you the flexibility to wear them open or closed, a bit like a cardigan. The downside is that wind can blow through the zippers, so they're not as warm as pullover varieties.

What to look for in a hoodie

• Size: You can find hoodies in a range of sizes from XXS-6XL — or occasionally even larger. While hoodies are essentially genderless garments, hoodies for women often run smaller than hoodies for men. So, a women's XL is usually smaller than a men's XL. This isn't a problem, but you should choose sizes accordingly.
• Fit: You can find hoodies in regular, slim and loose fits. You can also size up or down to achieve your desired fit.
• Color: Hoodies are available in a wide range of colors, from basics, such as black and gray, to bold hues, such as safety orange and hot pink. You can also find a handful in prints, rather than solid colors, including camouflage and floral prints.
• Logos: You'll often find logos on hoodies made by athletic clothing brands. These logos can be small and subtle or large and eye-catching. Which you prefer is down to personal preference.  
• Pockets: Hoodies almost always have pockets. Those with full zippers have two separate pockets, while pullover varieties have single pouch-style pockets on the front.

Hoodie prices

While some basic hoodies cost less, you can expect to pay around $25-$75 for an average one. If you want a designer hoodie, you can pay well over $100, but you can find options from popular athletic brands for significantly less.
