Smiley Face Hoodies

Most novelty hoodies are thin, print-heavy and dead within a season. This one is built the other way around: an 8 oz heavy blend fleece in 50/50 pre-shrunk cotton and polyester, spun with air-jet yarn so the inside stays soft and resists the pilling that ruins cheap fleece after a few washes.

The construction is where the money went. Double-lined hood with a matching drawcord, 1×1 athletic rib-knit cuffs and waistband with spandex so they snap back rather than sag, double-needle stitching at the collar, shoulders, armholes, cuffs and hem, and a front pouch pocket.

The smiley sits on the shoulder — deliberately small. Nine colors from Black and Navy through Military Green, Gold and Azalea, in sizes S to 5XL. Built for cold mornings, long drives, and the walk home when you turn out to need the reminder.
