The Port & Company PC78YH Youth Core Fleece Pullover Hooded Sweatshirt is the youth version of the popular PC78H Core Fleece Hoodie.

Construction and specs

  • 7.8 oz core-weight 50/50 cotton/poly fleece
  • Air jet yarn for a soft hand and reduced pilling
  • No drawcord at the hood (youth safety construction)
  • Tear-away label
  • Available in youth sizes XS through XL

 

Woah . . . no drawcord? 

That's correct. The PC78YH ships without a drawcord. Drawstrings at the neck and hood of children's clothing is a strangulation hazard, and U.S. CPSC guidelines (and the corresponding ASTM safety standard) require that youth garments in this category to be made without them. For schools, camps, and youth organizations, that drawcord-free construction isn't just a feature—it's often a purchasing requirement. The PC78YH meets it out of the box, which is one reason it's a standard pick for youth groups everywhere. 

Decoration

The PC78YH decorates the same way its adult counterpart does. The air-jet-spun 50/50 fleece gives a dense, stable surface, and the 50/50 blend is more dimensionally stable through repeated washing than an all-cotton fleece, which matters for spirit wear that goes through a lot of laundry cycles. For embroidery, the core-weight fabric gives the needle enough material to work cleanly on left-chest logos and name drops.

Order the PC78YH blank for in-house decoration, or send us your logo for custom screen printing, embroidery, or DTF transfers.

Building a matched adult-and-youth program

The PC78YH's main advantage is family consistency. Because it shares the 7.8 oz core-weight 50/50 fleece and decoration profile with the adult PC78H and the ladies LPC78H, a program can outfit kids, women, and men in coordinated hoodies that print identically and match in color and weight. For a fundraiser, school store, team, or family-event run, that means one setup, one ink match, and a consistent finished product across every size from youth XS up through adult sizing. For a crewneck (no hood) version in the same fabric family, the PC78Y Youth Core Fleece Crewneck covers programs that don't want a hood.

Questions buyers ask

Why doesn't the PC78YH have a drawcord?

Youth hooded garments are made without hood or neck drawstrings to comply with U.S. CPSC children's-safety guidelines and the corresponding ASTM standard, which identify drawstrings in children's clothing as a strangulation hazard. The adult PC78H has dyed-to-match drawcords; the youth PC78YH omits them by design. For most school and youth-organization purchasing, drawcord-free construction is a requirement, not a preference.

Does the youth PC78YH match the adult PC78H for a group order?

Yes. Both use the same 7.8 oz core-weight 50/50 cotton/poly air-jet fleece and the same decoration surface, so they print and embroider identically and match in fabric weight and color. The only construction differences are youth-specific: the smaller size scale and the drawcord-free hood. For a program that needs adult and youth hoodies to look like a coordinated set, the PC78H and PC78YH are built to pair.

What's the best decoration method for the PC78YH?

Screen printing is the volume default, since the air-jet 50/50 fleece holds plastisol and water-based inks cleanly, but DTF and DTG also work! Embroidery also works well thanks to the core-weight fabric's stability. For neon colorways specifically, note that Port & Company flags 50/50 neon fabrics as requiring special care during printing, so flag a neon order to your decorator in advance.

What sizes does the PC78YH come in?

The PC78YH runs youth XS through youth XL. For sizing beyond that range, the adult PC78H covers XS through 4XL and the ladies LPC78H covers women's sizing — all in the same fabric, so a single program can span the full size range.
