Men's sweatshirts

Pre-owned men's sweatshirts, from crewneck sweatshirts to quarter-zips and half-zips.

Crewneck sweatshirts

A crewneck sweatshirt has a round, ribbed neckline and no hood, and it is easy to wear over a collared shirt. Most sweatshirts are made from cotton jersey or a cotton blend with a brushed fleece inside, which makes them warmer and softer. Sweatshirts from sportswear and outdoor brands often have an embroidered or printed logo on the chest.

Quarter-zips and half-zips

The quarter-zip has a short zip from the collar and a slightly higher neck, so the neckline can be opened or closed. A half-zip has a longer zip that reaches further down the chest.

Size and measurements

Sweatshirt sizes differ between brands and decades, and an older sweatshirt can be cut wider and shorter than a recent one with the same letter. Holding those numbers against a sweatshirt from the wardrobe gives the clearest picture, and the guide to measuring pit to pit explains how.

Hoodies and sweatshirts for everyone are under hoodies and sweatshirts, knitwear in wool and cotton is under men's jumpers and knitwear, and the women's range is under women's sweatshirts. The full men's range is under men's clothing.

Questions about men's sweatshirts

What is the difference between a sweatshirt and a jumper?

A sweatshirt is made from cotton jersey or fleece and has ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem. A jumper is knitted from yarn, usually wool or cotton.

How should a sweatshirt be washed?

The care label inside the item gives the instructions for that item. Cotton is best washed cold, inside out, and air dried, because tumble drying is the biggest single cause of shrinkage in cotton. More is in the guide to washing and caring for clothing.

How is the condition of an item described?

Every item has a condition label, and any imperfection is stated in the condition description of the item.
