Sweatpants & Tops
Hot styles
What types of people are likely to wear sweatshirts and sweatpants? Everyone! Babies, children, teens, young adults, baby boomers and senior citizens all appreciate the warmth, durability and downright coziness that these garments provide. For proof of their universal nature, picture a college or university book store: Of course, the late-teen/20-something students flock to the hoodies and sweatpants featuring the institution’s name, logo or mascot. But parents and grandparents also shop for versions of these products designed specifically for them, and once they’re there, they can’t resist the adorable infant hoodies (“Future [Name of College] Student,” perhaps) or the youth-size sweatpants for other family members or friends.
And that’s just one example of a lucrative market where many audiences can be reached. Sweatshirts and sweatpants are also a great idea for athletic teams, gyms, senior centers, fundraisers and much more. One might even suggest these garments as uniforms for companies with particularly laid-back corporate cultures – who wouldn’t love to come to work in sweatpants?
