For colder months
Custom hoodies
A custom hoodie is a hooded jumper with your logo on the chest, sleeve, or back. A crewneck is the same idea without a hood. Use them for winter staff clothing, clubs, or anything people will wear when it is cold. Unitix makes hoodies and crewnecks in Australia.

Key takeaways
- Custom hoodies are warm jumpers made with your logo. A crewneck is the same order, just without a hood.
- Most people put a small logo on the chest, printed or stitched. A large design across the back is fine too. Tell us if you want both.
- A stitched logo (embroidery) lasts well if people wash the hoodie all winter. Print is better for photos and busy designs.
- Unitix makes hoodies and crewnecks in Australia. For warmer weather, see custom t-shirts. High-visibility fleece for a worksite is custom workwear.
Hoodie or crewneck
Both are in our hoodies and crewnecks range. For most orders you only need to choose whether you want a hood.
- Hoodie: the usual choice. People wear it to work and on the weekend. We often start with the heavyweight hoodie.
- Crewneck: neater at a desk or on stage, because there is no hood and no drawstring. The heavyweight crewneck is the same weight of cotton, without the hood.
- Zip or pullover: a zip goes over a shirt. A pullover is worn on its own. Say which you want, because the logo sits differently next to a zip.
These are regular branded hoodies. If someone needs to be seen on a road or a worksite, use the hi-vis zip hoodie on the workwear page.
Print or embroidery
Hoodie fabric is thick, so very small text is hard to read either way. Keep the logo simple.
| Embroidery (stitched) | ||
|---|---|---|
| How it looks | Ink on the fabric. Choose this when the design is a picture or a large graphic. | Thread sewn into the fabric. Choose this when the same logo also goes on other clothing. |
| What to send | A clear, high-resolution image. On a dark hoodie the design needs to stand out. | A logo file from design software (.ai, .eps, or .svg), in a few colours. Very thin lines will not stitch well. |
| Where it usually goes | The chest, or across the back if the design is large enough | Left chest. A sleeve logo can be a second, smaller one |
| Choose this when | You want a printed design people can see from across a room | The same logo is going on a polo and a hat |
When to order a hoodie
Order hoodies when people will actually wear a warm layer: winter staff clothing, a club or campus sale, a warehouse that stays cold, or an event that needs more than a t-shirt. Order a custom t-shirt when you want the same design on something lighter for warm weather.
To quote, we need to know who will wear it, whether you want a hood or a crewneck, whether the logo is printed or stitched (and where it sits), and how many of each size. We then show a mock-up on the real colour. A grey logo disappears on charcoal. A cream logo disappears on a light hoodie.
- One main logo is usually enough. A chest logo plus a large back print is two pieces of work, so say if you want both.
- If the hoodie will be worn with a polo, stitching both logos usually looks more consistent.
- Approve the mock-up, then browse hoodies and crewnecks.
