Whether you want to use photos, text or a unique design to customise your hoodie, you can be sure that when you design with Contrado, you will be getting a bespoke and one of a kind piece, handmade and printed exclusively by us. This hoodie has several finishing options and seven printable areas including; both sleeves, the left and right side of the hood, the front, the back and the internal side of the hood. The designs on the sleeves and body are also printed onto the cuffs and hem, creating a totally customised hoodie, tailored just for you.
Zipper Hoodie
A classic zipper hoodie is ideal for creating a stylish layered look. Our zipper finish hoodie features a sturdy zip and you can opt between a black, white or grey zip.

Pull-Over Hoodie
If zips aren't your style, then we recommend the pull-over hoodie option. This stylish hoodie allows you to print a solid design without interference from a zip.

Design Your Own Hoodie, Handmade In London
Custom printed hoodies are such a fun and contemporary way of showing off your personal style. Every hoodie is printed, and sewn by hand and is available with a 48-hour turnaround with no minimum order, so if you are looking to create a hoodie just for yourself or a whole line for your own brand, Contrado is the only place to be. Make your own hoodie from our super soft Loopback Jersey. Printing on white Loopback Jersey will give you a bright and punchy print. This characteristic jersey fabric is full of personality and is unique due to its special kind of knit, which goes through the back loop and twists the stitch - hence its name.
Your label, your brand
Promote your brand, with our sewn-in Labels. Our Custom Hoodies come with the option to add a custom label: this big, bold full-colour label is a great platform to promote your brand. Print with your brand name or logo, add sizing information and more. You can even print a name or a personal message. Custom labels add a professional touch to your custom-made hoodies and will get your brand recognised.
Style it with
From slogan hoodies to designer hoodies, one thing is for sure, this versatile piece is beloved by pretty much everyone! As such, you can really have a lot of fun creating stylish and laid-back looks. With our zipper finish, we recommend layering it over our Cut and Sew Vest and topping it off with our Custom Beanie Hat, for a relaxed yet on-trend outfit. Our pull-over version is a great addition to skinny jeans and boots or worn under our Custom Bomber Jacket. Have fun mixing it up.
Care instruction
Turn inside out, wash 30°c, hang to dry or low heat tumble dry.

Poor quality...the size was big even though I ordered small size and also the printing of the logo was no clear it was bleary. Plus the fabric was thick too! I wasted a lot of money and end of the day I get a poor quality product! Never gonna use this company and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone!

Very happy with results. This was a one-off order but would consider using Contrado for future merch for my business if there is a wholesale discount available!

My Hoodie is perfect! It looks just like the thumbnail on the website, the printing is perfect, the sewing is neat and tidy, the pattern matching on the pocket pouch is exemplary. I love that the hood is lined and the weight and quality of the fabric is really nice. I'm thrilled with it, and Contrado!

Frequently asked questions:
Which parts of the hoodie can I customise?
You can customise nearly every part of our personalised hoodie. Not only can you design the front, back, right and left sleeves and left and right external hood, but you can also design the interior fabric of the hood. There is no limit. You also have the option to choose your fabric, zip, trim and stitch colour and whether to add a brand label or message.
What is the fit of this Custom Hoodie like?
Our UK printed hoodie is comfy and super soft. We designed it to fit quite true to life, so the fit really depends on your style preference. If you want a regular fit, then we suggest your regular size. If however, you prefer a more fitted and slim fit hoodie, then go down a size and, alternatively, if you like a baggier, more relaxed look, go a size up.
Can I print one image over the whole hoodie?
This is an all over print hoodie. As our hoodie is cut and sew, it is not possible to print a single image over all 7 parts in one hit. Your design will be printed over the panels and you have the option to replicate the same design over all parts. You can design individual segments for each panel to get the image all over.
This hoodie is an awesome unisex garment: Ladies, please select 2 Sizes Smaller than their regular size to ensure an accurate fit.

Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi; this means that no resizing of your file occurs, preventing any interpolation. Our design interface will have a quality marker next to the design that you have uploaded, this will change colour using a traffic light system and display a message. The message will let you know if the resolution is too low or if you have a good quality image.
How will my image scale?
When you upload your design our system will automatically scale it to fit your chosen fabric dimensions. In the ‘Product Image’ tab, the displayed dimensions under ‘Print Size’ will show the dimensions of the piece of fabric that you are ordering. For image/design dimensions you need to see the ‘Images & Text Tools’ tab. You can see and edit the dimensions of the image under the quality information next to the thumbnail.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
If each individual colour is specifically important to your design, choose CYMK as our setup will print each colour with the closest possible match within our available range. If the relationship between the colours within the image is more important choose RGB; this will reduce all colours equally to fit within our range.
Maximum dimensions
For most of our fabrics there is no limit on the length of the fabric that you can order. We have a preview design window set up to 10m max to visualise the print, but that's not a print limit. If you'd like to order more, increase the quantity (x2 for 20m or x4 for 40m for example) and then you can order as much as you'd like, with a built in automatic volume discount too. The maximum print width of each fabric can be found on the individual fabric pages or in our design interface.
Do I need to incorporate white space within my design if I want a border or some cutting space?
Yes, that might help you! Always incorporate any extra space or boarders into your purchased fabric size. We trim squarely around fabric samples and fabric prints, leaving approximately 5mm white space. Cutting neatly on the line has an additional fee.
Do you print on fabric a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not; we like to test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, and if you have access to a heat press you can press your own fabrics easily.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
What is the situation with material shrinkage?
Just like many fabric printing processes, there is the potential for shrinkage. Depending on the fabric, please expect and allow between 2-8% shrinkage which you need to plan for in your dimensions. This percentage can vary from print run to print run and between fabrics, so we would advise to order a little more material than you require for your project.
Can I print on both sides of the fabric?
We do not offer printing on both sides of the fabric, as a lot of our fabrics are semi-transparent. As the customer, you can consider the effect of printing on both sides one of our fabrics and contact us, and we will get back to you if it's feasible.
Can I order labels in another fabric? Will you cut them like you do with the normal fabric labels?
At the moment no, our labels are all printed on the same satin fabric. We may introduce more in the future, but for now this is the best choice. The labels are all cut the same way. You can order the fabric of your choice and make the labels yourself, but we do not cut different fabric into label format.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in London where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.
