Unisex Burgundy Hoodie

Unisex Burgundy Hoodie

Burgundy sits between red and brown, which is why it behaves almost like a neutral once it is on. It goes with black, with denim and with grey, and it does not shout the way a bright red would. That is most of the reason people pick this colour over the usual black or grey.

Unisex means the same cut for everyone

This is one pattern, not a men’s version and a women’s version. The fit is relaxed rather than shaped, so it sits the same on most people. If you want it oversized, take a size up. If you want it closer, take your usual.

What it is made of

A cotton blend, soft and breathable rather than the heavy fleece some hoodies use. It is a pullover, so there is no zip. The hood has drawstrings. A kangaroo pocket runs across the front and the cuffs and hem are rib knitted, which is what stops a hoodie riding up your arms.

Sizing

Measure round the fullest part of your chest over a t shirt and check the table on this page. Because the cut is already relaxed, going up a size makes it oversized rather than comfortable. Only do that if oversized is what you want.

Looking after it

Wash it inside out and cold. Burgundy is a deep dye and it fades faster in hot water than a black or grey would. Dry it flat or on a low heat, because the ribbed cuffs lose their spring in a hot dryer.

Burgundy, maroon or wine

Three names for roughly the same colour and people use all of them. Burgundy is the one we use because it sits closest to what this actually is. If you searched for a maroon hoodie or a wine coloured hoodie, this is what you were looking for. The shade is deep rather than bright, closer to red wine than to red.
