Independent Trading Co. IND5000P Unisex Legend Premium Heavyweight Cross-Grain Hooded Sweatshirt
The Independent Trading Co. IND5000P is built as a premium heavyweight hoodie with a dense hand and structured finish. The 13.5 oz./yd˛ (450 GSM) 70/30 ring-spun cotton/polyester fleece uses 100% cotton face yarns on solid colors at 20 singles for a stable print surface, while cross-grain body and hood panels help limit shrinkage after washing.
Double fleece lining in the hood, antique silver eyelets, a heavy-duty 100% cotton shoestring drawcord, reverse coverstitch seams, and double ribbing side panels for stretch give it a retail-quality construction. The 520 gm 100% cotton 1x1 ribbing at the cuffs and waistband and the tear-away woven label complete the details.
Where it gets used
It is used for branded team apparel, corporate programs, school spirit wear, and retail-quality merch where a substantial hoodie is needed. Decorators choose it for screen printing, embroidery, and heat transfers on a cotton-rich face.
Who it is for
It fits organizations and brands that want a heavier, more premium blank than standard midweight fleece. Unisex sizing from XS to 3XL covers a broad range of wearers.
Why they pick this cut
The cross-grain construction and double rib side panels help maintain shape and add stretch. The double-lined hood and reverse coverstitch seams deliver a finished, durable look that holds up through repeated wear and washing.
How they use it
Wearers use it for cold-weather layering, everyday wear, and as a decorated outer layer for events or work. The weight provides real warmth without the bulk of thermal-lined options.
What wearers say
People who have worn it note the substantial thickness and soft feel, the lined hood that adds a richer quality, and very little shrinkage after multiple washes. It is described as warm, well-constructed, and comfortable for colder conditions.
Embroidery and print
Solid colors have a 100% cotton face yarn that supports clean screen printing, discharge, and embroidery. Heather colors do not have a 100% cotton face, so testing is recommended before printing. The tear-away label allows easy rebranding.
Sizing
Available in sizes XS through 3XL in a standard unisex fit. Body length runs from 27 inches (XS) to 33 inches (3XL), with chest widths from 22 inches to 29 inches laid flat.
Colors and companions
Alpine Green, Black, Bone, Charcoal Heather, Classic Navy, Dusty Pink, Gold, Grey Heather, Maroon, Olive, Red, Royal, and White. Companion: IND5000C.
