The Complete Guide to Ordering Matric & Leavers Hoodies
Short answer: order matric and leavers hoodies early (ideally by August), collect sizes once, keep the design simple and timeless, and choose a warm mid-to-heavyweight hoodie you'll actually wear after school.

Leavers hoodies are the one piece of school kit people keep for years. Here's how to get them right.

Order early

Matric and leavers gear gets busy from August into the final term. Ordering early means less rush, more colour and size availability, and time for a proper proof before you commit.

Collect sizes once

Chasing sizes twice is the biggest headache. Send around one sizing form, set a deadline, and order a couple of spares in the popular sizes.

Keep the design timeless

Class lists and a year on the back never go out of style. Big trend-of-the-moment graphics can look dated fast, so lean classic if you want to keep wearing it.

Choose the right hoodie

For something you'll wear after school, pick a warm mid-to-heavyweight pullover. If you're unsure on weight, our hoodie GSM guide explains it simply.

How many to order

One per learner plus a few spares. Our minimum is 10 units, which suits most classes and friendship groups.

FAQs

Can we add names and a class list?

Yes. Names on the front and a class list on the back are popular and we handle both.

What's the minimum?

10 units, so it works for a class or a smaller friendship group.
