FULL ZIP HOODIES

Most FR hoodie hoods are cut to lie flat and low-profile enough to fit under a hard hat, but this can vary by brand and sizing. Trying the hoodie on with your hard hat before regular use is the best way to confirm the fit works for your specific gear.

An FR hoodie like NKE's 12 oz, 100% Cotton Full Zipper Hoodie works well as a mid-layer or standalone piece in moderate conditions, but it typically doesn't offer the same wind and weather resistance as a dedicated FR jacket. For harsher outdoor conditions, layering the hoodie under an FR jacket usually provides better protection than the hoodie alone.

NKE's Full Zipper Hoodie is made from 12 oz, 100% cotton, a heavier weight suited for colder conditions and jobs where extra insulation and durability matter more than breathability. Lighter-weight FR hoodies are generally better suited for mild weather or as an added layer rather than a standalone piece in cold environments.

Fleece FR hoodies use a brushed interior for added warmth and softness, making them better suited for cold-weather work. Non-fleece FR hoodies, like NKE's 12 oz cotton Full Zipper Hoodie, use a straightforward woven or knit cotton construction that prioritizes durability and a classic hoodie feel over extra insulation.

Wash FR hoodies in warm water with a mild detergent and avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and starch, since these can coat the cotton fibers and reduce flame resistance over repeated washes. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat helps the hoodie hold its shape and protective properties longer.

The NKE FR Full Zipper Hoodie is available in Black, Navy, and OD Green, all made from the same 12 oz, 100% cotton flame-resistant fabric. All three colorways offer identical protection and construction, so the choice comes down to personal preference or job site color requirements.
