The full-zip is a consistently ordered wholesale style for a simple reason: it's more versatile than a pullover. It works as a standalone layer or over a tee, it's easier to put on and take off during active use, and the open-front construction makes it a cleaner canvas for left-chest embroidery and decoration. The full-zip collection at Bulkthreads.com spans budget 50/50 fleece, mid-range fashion hoodies, premium sponge fleece, performance stretch jackets, and youth and infant sizing — with automatic volume discounts applied at checkout.
For high-volume orders where cost-per-unit is the primary consideration, the Gildan G186 Adult Full-Zip Hoodie — also in basic colors — is the full-zip counterpart to the widely ordered G185 pullover, using the same 8 oz. 50/50 construction and color range for matching sets. The Jerzees 993 NuBlend Full-Zip is a comparable 8 oz. option with a slightly softer hand feel. The Hanes P180 EcoSmart Full-Zip adds recycled polyester content at a competitive price — a practical choice for buyers who want an eco-friendly credential alongside a name-brand blank. Port & Company covers this tier with two options: the PC78ZH Core Fleece Full-Zip — also in basic colors — and the softer PC850ZH Fan Favorite Fleece Full-Zip, which pairs with the PC850H pullover for a coordinated fleece family.
For retail merch, campus runs, and lifestyle brands where the blank needs to feel as good as it looks, the fashion fleece tier steps up the construction considerably. The District DT6102 V.I.T. Fleece Full-Zip Hoodie — also in basic colors — is a softer, more retail-influenced full-zip at an accessible price point. For buyers who want a sustainable angle, the District DT8102 Re-Fleece Full-Zip uses recycled materials with a premium, fashion-brand feel.
Bella+Canvas covers the premium end with two versions of the 3739. The Bella+Canvas 3739 Unisex Sponge Fleece Full-Zip Hoodie uses airlume ring-spun sponge fleece — the same premium construction as the 3719 pullover — producing a soft, retail-quality feel closer to a fashion purchase than a standard blank. The poly-cotton version of the same style is available in traditional, basic, and extended color assortments. For buyers with a sustainability focus, the Allmade AL4002 Organic French Terry Full-Zip Hoodie is made with organic cotton and recycled materials — one of the stronger sustainable full-zip options available at wholesale pricing.
For athletic teams, coaches, and active use where a fleece hoodie isn't the right construction, Sport-Tek's full-zip jacket line covers the performance end. The LST241 Ladies' Sport-Wick Fleece Full-Zip Jacket is a moisture-wicking polyester fleece in a structured, jacket-style cut — well suited for sideline wear and active use. The LST852 Ladies' Sport-Wick Stretch Full-Zip Jacket adds four-way stretch fabric for a more athletic, form-fitting silhouette, and the LST853 Contrast version adds a colorblock panel for a more distinctive team look.
The Port & Company PC90YZH Youth Core Fleece Full-Zip Hoodie coordinates with the adult PC78ZH for matching adult-youth sets — practical for school spirit wear, rec leagues, and family orders that need the same style across size ranges. The Port & Company CAR78IZH Infant Core Fleece Full-Zip Hoodie extends coverage all the way to infant sizing — useful for family events and children's decoration runs that need a full age range from a single brand.
All styles ship with automatic volume discounts applied at checkout, typically arrive in 1–3 business days, and come with free returns on every order. For pullover hoodies and crewnecks, see the full fleece collection. For quarter-zip and half-zip styles, see the 1/4-zip collection.
The Gildan G186 and Jerzees 993 are two of the more widely used 50/50 full-zip blanks for screen printing — both provide consistent print surfaces at budget price points and coordinate with their respective pullover hoodies for matching sets. The open-front construction of a full-zip actually simplifies decoration in some cases, since the zipper creates a natural center panel that works well for chest and back print placement.
The sponge fleece 3739 uses airlume ring-spun cotton construction — the same premium fabric as the 3719 pullover — producing a softer, more substantial feel that reads as genuinely retail-quality. The poly-cotton version uses a lighter poly-cotton blend that's slightly more affordable and available across a wider color range. Both share the same silhouette; the choice comes down to whether the fabric feel or the color selection matters more for a given order.
Two options stand out. The Allmade AL4002 Organic French Terry Full-Zip is made with organic cotton and recycled materials — one of the stronger sustainability-focused full-zip blanks at wholesale pricing. The District DT8102 Re-Fleece Full-Zip uses recycled materials at a lower price point and has a premium, fashion-brand feel that works well for lifestyle and boutique brands where the sustainability story matters to end customers.
Yes. The Port & Company PC90YZH Youth Core Fleece Full-Zip coordinates with the adult PC78ZH for matching sets across age groups. The CAR78IZH Infant Core Fleece Full-Zip extends coverage to infant sizing — less commonly available at wholesale than youth styles, and useful for family reunion runs, children's boutiques, and any order that needs a true full age range.
Sport-Tek's LST852 Ladies' Sport-Wick Stretch Full-Zip Jacket is a strong option for active and athletic use — its four-way stretch fabric moves with the wearer, and the moisture-wicking construction holds up through activity. The LST241 Ladies' Sport-Wick Fleece Full-Zip is a slightly less form-fitting alternative with a more classic jacket silhouette. Both are well suited for coaches, sideline staff, and team wear.
Yes, for most products. Automatic volume discounts are applied at checkout across the full-zip collection — no codes required. The per-unit price decreases as order size grows, all styles typically arrive in 1–3 business days, and returns are free on every order.
