Description
The Next Level 9303 is a unisex pullover hoodie constructed from 7.4 oz 80/20 cotton/polyester brushed back fleece with a 100% cotton face. The cotton-face construction is the key differentiator: decoration methods that perform best on cotton, including DTG, water-based inks, and discharge, produce cleaner results on this body than on 50/50 fleece where polyester on the print surface causes migration and muted output.
The sueded jersey-lined hood with natural drawcord and contrast 3/8-inch back-neck binding give a clean, finished look. A front pouch pocket, 1x1 ribbed cuffs and waistband, and side-seamed construction round out the build. The tear-away label removes for relabelling. An inside neck patch provides a printable label area for private-label programmes. Sizes run XS-3XL in a relaxed fit.
For decoration, DTG produces vibrant, saturated prints on the cotton face with white underbase on dark grounds, performing closer to a jersey tee than a standard fleece hoodie. DTF transfers bond firmly and seat into the fleece face. Screen printing works with standard plastisol on solids. The 20% polyester content is low enough that migration risk is minimal on most colours, though a light poly-block on deep saturated grounds is still best practice. Water-based inks produce a soft in-shirt hand. Discharge works on the cotton face for tone-on-tone vintage looks, though the 20% poly limits full strip on deep colours. Embroidery sits cleanly on the 7.4 oz fabric.
