Current Events > Hoodies - Zip up or pullover?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Pullover just over the fact you dont have to worry about the zipper messing up. That, and they look slightly better imo.

I'm a pullover guy. I'm about to put one on right now. I vastly prefer the loom and feel of them over zipper.

I prefer zippers, but to me a hoodie is inherently a pullover. A hooded jacket with a zipper is just a casual jacket to me.

Pullover. Go one size bigger. Better disguises how fat I've become.

Edit: I do wear both. But favoured pullovers recently for the aforementioned reason

Pull over every time

Pullover, zippers aren't made to last.

Zippers by far.

Pullover for the most part, I've got a few zippers though.

Pullover. I love the front pocket.

Zippers are just more versatile

I wear them open like 90% of the time so zip up, always.

Pullover to wear, think zipper ones look better though.

Zip up. Because I don't have to take it off if things warm up a little. I can just unzip it.

When I think 'hoodie' I think pullover. A zipper is a jacket. And I prefer the jacket.

Zip up. I haven't worn pull overs since I was a teenager.

both. pullover hoodie with a quarter-zipper (or button-up) neck area

They're both sweatshirts to me, I never actually say "hoodie". I would not consider my zip up sweatshirt a jacket, though.

I like the look of pullovers more but I hate taking them off, especially if they generate a ton of static lol

got zapped while wearing headphones doing this

still

pullover gang

??? I always thought all hoodies were automatically pullovers. If it zips, it's a jacket or coat.

Other: Button

So I can pretend to be an adult while having a hoodie on my chair at a meeting

Both.

Give the edge to zip up for greater variability I suppose. But it's pretty 50/50.

100% zip. I run really hot so if I'm wearing a jacket of any kind it's just to be outside until I'm back inside. I'm never just chilling in a jacket for the day. I want something that is easy to get on and off. I'm not pulling shit over my head unless I am getting undressed.

Sticky fingaaaaaas

Pullover sweatshirt, not zip-up jacket. And I will never call either that really stupid sounding word.

Surprised there are so many votes for zip up.

Zippers

That said, the best hoodie I ever had was a pullover and I still pine for it, lol.

I love the coziness of pullovers, but zippered is far more convenient, so it wins.

Im trying to find a new zip up for work. I have to take them off too much for a pull over. I went to 4 places last week and they only had pull overs.

Most comfy I have is a pull over though.

Pullover looks better, but zip is way more practical.

Pullover. I had beloved hoodies fail on me due to the zipper. The pullover ones are still comfy a decade + later

Zippers and it's not even close.

pullover

Zip up. Im anal about my hair and pullovers always jack it up with static

both

Zip up. They're more convenient to put on and take off. Pullovers always felt very impractical to me. It's never cold enough that I need to keep a hoodie on all day

Zip up. I just can't do pull overs. Feel trapped.

Zip.

A zipper hoodia has HUGE potential to be the better piece

Though often times the zipper is either too stiff or the zipper becomes wrinkly over time which can look weird

zips forever

zips forever

Even with zipper wrinkles...?

That's dedication

I don't consider it a hoodie if it has a zipper

I like the coziness of a good pullover hoody, but I generally prefer a zipper just because I don't enjoy pulling the hoody over and off of my head. Always makes my hair staticky, which is really uncomfortable.
