A personalized hoodie from Marie Gems is the Custom Hoodie Graphic Sweatshirt, a made-to-order unisex hoodie you customize with a name, photo, monogram or logo. It starts at $44.99, comes in eight colors and sizes Small to 3XL, and a free design proof is emailed to you before production starts.
I run Marie Gems, a DTF transfer shop in Wichita, Kansas, and this hoodie is a different kind of product from my transfers. It is a finished sweatshirt, so there is no heat press and no pressing on your end. Here are the real options, prices and limits so you can decide before you order.
What does a personalized hoodie cost at Marie Gems?
A personalized hoodie costs $44.99 in Small through XL, $46.99 in 2XL and $47.99 in 3XL. The price does not change with the color or the design option, so a Purple Front Only hoodie and a Black Front + Back + Sleeve hoodie cost the same in the same size.
| Size | Price |
|---|---|
| Small, Medium, Large, XL | $44.99 |
| 2XL | $46.99 |
| 3XL | $47.99 |
The listing shows one price per hoodie and no quantity tiers, so the price per hoodie is the same whether you order one or ten.
What design options does the Custom Hoodie Graphic Sweatshirt offer?
The four design options are Front Only, Back Only, Front + Back and Front + Back + Sleeve, and all four are the same price. Adding a back design or a sleeve design does not add to the total on the listing. Front Only suits a name or monogram. Front + Back suits a team or business hoodie with a logo on the front and a name on the back. Back Only suits a large back design with a clean front, and Front + Back + Sleeve is the fullest branded look.
What colors does the Custom Hoodie Graphic Sweatshirt come in?
The personalized hoodie comes in eight colors: Black, White, sand, ash grey, Light pink, Purple, Red and Navy. Every color is offered in all four design options and all six sizes, which makes 192 combinations in all. Choose the color first, because it decides how much contrast your name, photo or logo will have.
How do I customize a personalized hoodie?
Leave your name, photo, monogram, logo or design request in the checkout notes, then approve the free design proof that is emailed to you before production starts. Use only artwork you have the right to use. A school's or a company's logo usually belongs to them, so get permission first, which is the same rule I give in my guide to making custom school shirts. If your request is more than a name, such as a group order or a specific layout, message the shop before you order.
Is the Custom Hoodie a good choice for a team or small business?
Yes. The listing names personalized gifts, family matching sets and small businesses that want branded hoodies as its uses. For a team of ten with eight hoodies in Small to XL, one 2XL and one 3XL, all in one color, the total is $454.90: eight at $44.99 is $359.92, plus $46.99 and $47.99. Collect sizes before you order, since 2XL costs $2.00 more and 3XL costs $3.00 more than the standard price.
Should I buy a finished hoodie or press my own?
Marie Gems offers both routes, and they work differently. The finished Custom Hoodie Graphic Sweatshirt is $44.99 in Small through XL, $46.99 in 2XL and $47.99 in 3XL, and there is nothing else to buy. A 12" ready-to-press DTF transfer is $4.00, and with that route you supply your own hoodie and a heat press, then press at 320°F for 15 seconds with a cold peel.
If you have your own artwork and want to press it, the Custom 12x12 Ready-to-Press DTF Transfer prints one custom transfer at $5.99 for the Adult Front placement, and my guide to applying a DTF transfer at home has each pressing step. You can start a custom transfer on the custom upload page.
What is the fit, and what if I am between sizes?
The fit is a unisex hoodie in soft cotton-blend fleece, in sizes Small to 3XL. The product description does not list measurements, so if you are between sizes or ordering for someone else, message the shop before you order instead of guessing.
Can I get matching hoodies for the whole family?
Partly. The listing names family matching sets as a use, but sizes start at Small and I do not see youth sizes on this listing. For kids, the finished Custom Youth Personalized Kids Graphic Shirt is $24.99 in Youth XS through Youth XL, customized with a name, photo or logo. Pair it with adult hoodies for a mixed family set.
