Summer Hoodies

Hoodies are a great layering piece all year round. For summertime, try a lightweight zip-up hoodie. A full-length zipper in the front lets you leave it wide open to catch the breeze, or zip it up to stay warm and cozy when the chill comes in. A drawcord on the hood lets you cinch the fit to your liking for maximum versatility. Summer hoodies can also be sleeveless or cropped for excellent airflow.

There are a few great fabrics for summer hoodies. Cotton is a classic material, due to its natural breathability and softness. A cotton-polyester blend combines breathability and moisture-wicking ability to keep you feeling dry and comfortable. A smooth plain weave allows for better airflow than nubby fleece. Look for technologies like adidas CLIMACOOL that are designed to keep you comfortable when it's warm out.

There's no specific name for summer hoodies, but here are some things you can look for. Style options like a sleeveless cut or a cropped length offer versatility for layering. A hoodie for summertime is most comfortable when it's made with a full-zip front and lightweight, breathable fabric for a breezy feel. Hoodies made with adidas CLIMACOOL are designed to wick and disperse sweat to keep you cool, dry and distraction-free.
