You always need to bundle up with a hooded sweatshirt, whether that be for rain, chilly temperatures, or simply to “put that shi*t on,” as Takeoff used to say. And summertime is no different, especially for those breezy mornings and those cozy nights to cap off the sweltering heat.
So, to assist folks looking to add more drip to their closet while staying comfortable in that summer sun, VIBE has you covered. We’re running down some affordable and expensive pieces ranging from the heavyweight to the lightweight variety, preparing folks for the fluctuating weather of those summer months.

“How could y’all have a hoodie list without a Champion joint?” is what y’all would’ve said if we weren’t professionals. Of course, we had to include THE hoodie company, the brand that created the concept for the garment that we now rock effortlessly today. Champion is known for its reliable pieces and everyday selections that you can pretty much cop anywhere. Champion has become synonymous with the word “hoodie” ever since it created the first of its kind in the 1930s, producing them for Upstate and Western New Yorkers working in warehouses, according to the New York Times. And now, almost 100 years later, here we are giving you a list of the best joints to rock for those summer fits.
Champion’s Powerblend Hoodie, which will run you $38 bucks, was crafted from medium-weight fleece fabric that is designed to “keep you warm without the weight.” So, you don’t have to worry about overheating or not being warm enough, the warmth will be just right. The affordable is available in grey, white, Black, red, granite heather, and navy and features a two-tone grey color under the hood.

Larry June‘s Midnight Organic Air Brush Healthy & Organic hoodie screams summertime. The high-quality cotton hoodie’s burst of vibrant orange makes it the perfect match with a clean pair of basketball shorts and some crispy all-white uptowns.
Midnight Organic’s hoodie features the signature “1991” embroidery on the garment’s hood, a flag logo sewn on the side of the pocket, and is styled with the Healthy & Organic Airbrush graphic screen printed on the back accompanied by the Midnight Organic Signature Orange graphic on the front left chest. It fits slightly oversized and is made out of a heavyweight 13oz fleece, so you may want to save this hoodie for those chilly summer nights.

Patta is one of those brands that will always deliver some eye-catching products, whether that be in collaboration with Nike or clothing endeavors by their lonesome. And the Patta Tie Dye Boxy Hooded Sweater is one of them ones. This hoodie may be “out there” and too daring for some people to rock—understandable. But to the people who enjoy wearing statement pieces and playing with color in their outfits, this will be just another Saturday afternoon for you.
The 460 gsm cotton hoodie features an all-over brown and yellow tie-dye design with ribbed wrists and a white drawstring to match the white Patta logo on the chest. The back of the hoodie finds Patta’s Panther Swirl artwork in various blues, greens, pinks, and oranges to complete the trippy garment. Patta’s hoodie is perfect for festival season, where trippy extracurricular activities may or may not be present. The garment is also lightweight, so it can be worn throughout the day, even under a bomber jacket, if it gets too chilly.

Billionaire Boys Club Classic Hoodie | $160

Billionaire Boys Club speaks for itself. The brand, founded in 2003 by Pharrell Williams and NIGO, is rooted in streetwear sensibilities and thrives on the aesthetic foundations of space, life, and positive affirmations. Two decades into the game, BBC is still churning out ill releases, but its classic pieces have proven themselves to be iconic.
The brand’s classic curve logo hoodie is the epitome of timeless, with a simple cotton garment with a contrasting white logo plastered across the torso. The hoodie is remarkably heavyweight, so it will be too hot for the summertime kickbacks in the day. However, the heavy cotton will be practical during those brisk walks along the beach with your latest situationship or serious relationship—hey, we ain’t judging. And above all else, the brand is just known for a level of flyness and consistency that is difficult to find these days in the streetwear space.
You can purchase the hoodie here for $160 and on sale at SSENSE here.
Jacquemes x Nike Hoodie | $300

The Jacquemus x Nike collaboration was unique. The collection featured a reimagined take on the Nike status quo, from sneakers to purses, sweats, and mock neck shirts. And the hoodie may have been one of the most interesting. Jacquemus x Nike’s hoodie features slashes throughout the garment in the shape of the iconic swoosh, cut from a cotton-blend jersey. The oversized fitting hoodie also emphasizes a dropped-shoulder aesthetic that shows off a more relaxed athleisure look. Both of the drawstrings are conjoined by a golden Nike emblem, giving the workout gear an air of luxury.
So, for the interesting part, some folks saw the slashes on the hoodie and felt like the brands were trying to resale a “bummy” aesthetic in hopes of making it trendy. Other people found that the slashes gave their bodies a more breathable experience. Whichever side you fall on, that’s on you, but if you’re in the demographic that feels this design is great, this may be the perfect hoodie to add to your summer wardrobe.
The brown collection is currently sold out on Nike and Jacquemus’ sites though you can find a red version on Nike.com. However, it can be purchased for an average resale price of $300 on GOAT.com and on StockX.
Sp5der P*nk V2 Hoodie | $201

You’ve probably seen these hoodies out and about in the wild, or maybe you haven’t. Nonetheless, it is one of the 10 entries on our list; we introduce to you Young Thug‘s Sp5der P*nk V2 Hoodie. The design is heavily inspired by the Y2K aesthetic that has taken over popular culture at the moment, sporting a retro-futuristic graphic to boot. Spider webs and bedazzled spots detail the Sp5der name logo, giving it an extra layer of texture. The back of the hoodie also features an all-over print with a yellow star on the back of the hoodie’s neck.
Thug’s hoodies are particularly heavyweight and would be best used during those cold nights when you’re trying to go for a cozier vibe. Pink, yellow, and blue colors fill out this vibrant piece, making it a must-have for the season.
You can purchase the hoodie on GOAT starting at $201.

NOAH‘s classic hoodie is also worth exploring. NOAH is a brand that is built on an “uncompromising pursuit of quality, integrity, and originality,” as per the company’s “About Us” page. And it shows in the simplicity of their designs such as the classic hoodie collection.
Crafted with 100% cotton, this hooded sweatshirt design is a crash course in minimalism. The only real detail included is the brand’s logo embroidered on the hoodie’s pocket. But, if you’re looking for a reliable garment with versatility across various outfits, this $168 investment may be one of the best bets.

Stüssy is an all-time streetwear brand that never fails to release some of the most fly pieces year-round. So, it shouldn’t be surprising that the California-based brand made it onto this list with their Beach Shell Wrinkled Nylon Hoodie.
Okay, so, first things first, we know it’s a general rule to avoid Nylon materials in the summertime as you risk trapping funky odors and bacteria in the clothing during those hot months. However, if those months were to have some breezy, chilly, and cold weather, you may have a better shot at getting this piece off.
While it does give “garbage bag but make it fashion,” this $185 garment is actually top-tier quality comprised of Stüssy’s “Majotech” ultra-light recycled nylon with a permanent wrinkle effect. The hoodie also has an adjustable drawcord, with Stüssy’s stock logo located on the left chest. Hate it or love it, but give it a try; you may be surprised at how fly it is.

Hypland is for the nerds, and they got some amazing designs to help elevate their closets with garments that they would actually care about. The brand is known for collaborating with some of the most beloved IPs in pop culture, such as Yu-Gi-Oh!, Hello Kitty, Gundam, Sonic The Hedgehog, Naruto, and even the NBA. So it should be no surprise that their latest collab with Street Fighter has yielded some dope pieces worth your attention, like their assortment of hoodies.
Hyland x Street Fighter created four hoodies, but Guile’s joint is one of the illest. The garment includes a graphic of the character hitting his signature “Sonic Boom” special move in the middle of the chest, while a larger print of the character hitting an action pose with his iconic comb is featured on the back. Additional images from Street Fighter II are on the back, paying homage to the character’s first appearance in the video game. The 100% hoodie fits true to size and is remarkably medium weight, so you could get away with rocking this piece at any time in the day in the summertime. Unless you live in Arizona, then take this off.
You can purchase this hoodie here for $90.
