Zip up Hoodies vs Pullover Hoodies

The main different between the two is that the pullover hoodie does not have a button or a zip, wearing it or taking it off requires pulling it over. This is directly opposite to the zip-up hoodie which can be easily worn like a shirt as it has a zip. People have their preferences on which of the options is best fit but the way I see it, it depends on the individual wearing the hoodie and the dress code.

Questions like this always popup once in a while on platforms like Reddit and Quora

We carried out a short survey on the zip-up hoodie vs the pullover hoodie and here are a few sampled opinions of people.

Someone: ‘’’I prefer zip-ups. It gives you the option of how much you want it covering your chest, and also gives you easier access to shirt pockets (yes, to everyone’s shame, I wear button-down shirts with shirt pockets while wearing a hoodie)’’’

Someone else: ‘’’I concede that the zip up is less functional and less convenient.

However the feeling of the zip I find very uncomfortable and distracting.

As comfort is the primary reason for wearing a hoodie I feel that the zip undermines this!’’’

So you see, people have their preferences. As for me, I rather own both than argue over which is beat (hahahahaha). If you are more interested in the pull over hoodie, checkout these amazing pull over hoodie brands here.
