Product notes
More details
Construction & Closure
The SS4500Z shares the same 8.5 oz 80/20 cotton-poly 3-end fleece as the SS4500 pullover but adds a full-zip front closure. The zipper splits the front panel, which is the primary design consideration for sellers — chest prints must work across or alongside the zipper line, making this blank better suited to left-chest logos, back prints, or embroidered designs than large front graphics.
Material & Build
Three-end fleece construction with ring-spun yarn provides a smooth exterior face. The specs also list side-seamed construction and a tear-away label.
Print Compatibility
Compatible with DTG, DTF, embroidery, and screen print. Embroidery works particularly well on zip hoodies since left-chest placement avoids the zipper entirely. DTG and DTF prints are typically applied to the back panel or smaller front-chest areas.
Buyer FAQ
Common questions
- How does the SS4500Z differ from the SS4500?
- Same 8.5 oz 3-end fleece and construction. The SS4500Z has a full-zip front closure instead of pullover. The zipper splits the front panel, affecting print placement options.
- Can you print on the front of the SS4500Z?
- Yes, but the zipper splits the front panel. Left-chest logos, small graphics, and back prints work well. Large front-spanning designs are better suited to pullover hoodies.
- What print methods work with the SS4500Z?
- DTG, DTF, embroidery, and screen print. Embroidery is well-suited to zip hoodies since left-chest placement avoids the zipper.
- What fabric is the SS4500Z made of?
- 80% cotton / 20% polyester at 8.5 oz in 3-end fleece construction with ring-spun yarn.
- Does the SS4500Z have a tear-away label?
- Yes. The tear-away label can be removed for custom neck label branding.
