S-Town Premium Hoodie: The Street-Ready Heavyweight

The S-Town Premium Hoodie is built for those who want a hoodie that feels substantial. At 320gsm, the brushed fleece interior traps heat without making you feel stiff. The 80/20 cotton-poly blend gives it durability - it holds shape even after repeated wears.

The oversized kangaroo pocket isn't just for hands; it fits a phone, wallet, or earbuds case easily. The adjustable drawstring hood offers coverage when you need it. This is the piece you grab when you're heading out and want the S-Town logo front and center, paired with fan-inspired graphics that reference inside jokes from the show.

S-Town Classic Crewneck: The Versatile, Clean Silhouette

The S-Town Classic Crewneck (available in the hoodie collection) strips away the hood and pockets for a sleeker profile. At 280gsm, it's slightly lighter - still warm, but less bulky. Perfect for layering under a denim jacket or wearing solo when the temperature hovers around 60°F.

The ribbed cuffs and hem use spandex to keep their shape. No drawstrings, no front pouch - just the S-Town logo embroidered on the chest and a subtle graphic on the back collar. It's a cleaner look that works just as well for a casual Friday at work as it does for a lazy Sunday.

Which One Should You Get?

Go with the Premium Hoodie if:

  • You want a statement piece. The front graphic and hood draw attention.
  • You get cold easily - the 320gsm fleece is noticeably warmer.
  • You need pockets. The kangaroo pouch is practical.
  • You're pairing it with joggers or baggy jeans for a streetwear vibe.

Go with the Classic Crewneck if:

  • You prefer a minimalist look. No hood, fewer lines.
  • You want something that sits neatly under a jacket or coat.
  • You run warm but still want that soft fleece interior.
  • You're buying for someone who hates hoods (yes, they exist).

Both are solid picks. The Premium Hoodie works better for colder days and casual street style, while the Classic Crewneck is the move if you want an easy layer that goes with almost anything.

FAQ

Are the fabrics the same?

Both use an 80% cotton, 20% polyester blend with brushed fleece, but the hoodie is heavier (320gsm) than the crewneck (280gsm). The hoodie feels thicker and more substantial.

Can I machine wash both?

Yes - turn them inside out, wash cold, and tumble dry low to avoid shrinking. The graphics are screen-printed and hold up well.

Does the crewneck have any pockets?

No. The Classic Crewneck has no pockets. If you need to carry items, the hoodie's kangaroo pocket is your best bet.

Which one runs larger?

Both have a relaxed fit, but the hoodie is cut slightly boxier to accommodate the hood and layering. Check the size charts on each product page.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, the official S-Town store ships to most countries. Rates are calculated at checkout.
