Silhouettes: pullover, full-zip, crewneck
Hanes blank sweatshirts cover the EcoSmart fleece line at competitive wholesale pricing. The P160 EcoSmart Pullover Hoodie (7.8 oz, 50/50 cotton-polyester) is the primary hoodie style. The P170 EcoSmart Crewneck Sweatshirt uses the same 50/50 construction in crewneck form. The P160Y and P1100 youth styles provide companions for programs distributing matching hoodies to both youth and adult participants. All EcoSmart styles are pre-shrunk, reducing size variation between ordered and received quantities.
P160 EcoSmart Hoodie: 50/50 Fleece at Value Pricing
P160 at 7.8 oz is a direct competitor to Gildan G180 at 7.75 oz in the 50/50 cotton-polyester fleece category. The construction, weight, and use cases are comparable: both are standard-weight 50/50 pre-shrunk fleece hoodies for screen-printed promotional, event, and uniform programs. EcoSmart yarn in the P160 uses reclaimed cotton, which does not change the decoration properties or feel of the finished garment but is relevant to programs with sustainability claims. Case pricing on P160 positions it as a value-tier option for programs where Gildan and Hanes are interchangeable. Both P160 and G180 use the same 50/50 fleece construction, so programs running G180 can integrate P160 without changing their decoration setup or ink formulations. For distributors sourcing through Hanes-preferred channels, P160 provides full functional equivalency to G180 at comparable pricing.
P170 Crewneck and Youth Style Coordination
P170 EcoSmart Crewneck shares the same 50/50 fleece construction as the P160 hoodie, making them natural companions for programs ordering both styles in the same colorway. Youth P160Y and P1100 coordinate with the adult P160 for school programs, youth sports organizations, and church group distributions where uniform consistency across youth and adult participants is a requirement. Checking colorway-to-colorway match between adult and youth EcoSmart styles before committing to a large mixed-size order is standard practice, as some colors vary slightly between adult and youth production runs.
Screen Printing on Hanes 50/50 Fleece
Hanes EcoSmart 50/50 fleece carries the same dye migration risk as all polyester-blend fleece for screen printers. Plastisol inks over mid-tone to dark EcoSmart grounds require migration-resistant formulations to prevent color shift during cure. White and light-colored inks on navy or black P160 are the most common scenario where migration-resistant ink is needed. Water-based inks on 50/50 fleece require extended drying and cure times but eliminate the dye migration variable. The print approach for P160 and P170 is the same as for Gildan G180 and G185.
