Prof G Pod Hoodie Sizing Guide for 2026: Find Your Perfect Fit

Minimal shrinkage (under 3%) may occur with high heat. To keep the fit, wash in cold water and tumble dry on low. The 80% cotton, 20% polyester blend is pre-shrunk to reduce shrinking.

Q: I'm between sizes, should I size up or down?

Size up if you prefer a relaxed, oversized fit. Size down for a closer, more athletic look. The hoodie is designed to be roomy, so going up is generally safer if you're between sizes.

Q: Is the hoodie true to size?

Yes, for an oversized fit. Most fans find their usual size works well. If you're used to fitted hoodies, you might feel it runs one size larger. Checking the garment chest measurements is the best approach.

Complete Guide Overview

If you're picking up the Prof G Pod Premium Hoodie, getting the right size is everything. This isn't one of those flimsy pullovers that fits loose one wash and tight the next. It's a heavyweight 320gsm fleece with a brushed interior - built to last. But that also means it has its own fit personality.

The Premium Hoodie runs slightly oversized for that street-ready silhouette. Most fans find their usual size works, but if you're between sizes or prefer a trimmer look, you'll want to pay attention to the numbers.

Size Chart for the Prof G Pod Premium Hoodie

Size	Chest (inches)	Length (inches)	Sleeve (inches)
S	38-40	27	33
M	40-42	28	34
L	42-44	29	35
XL	44-46	30	36
2XL	46-48	31	37
3XL	48-50	32	38

These measurements are for the garment itself. If you want a relaxed fit, go with the chest measurement that matches your own. For a more fitted look, pick the size where your chest measurement sits at the lower end of the range.

How to Choose

Step 1: Measure Your Chest

Wrap a measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, just under your armpits. Keep it snug but not tight. Write that number down.

Step 2: Compare to the Garment Chest

Take your chest measurement and find it on the chart. For example, if your chest is 41 inches, the size M (40-42) will fit you with a little room. The size L (42-44) will give you an extra inch or two for layering.

Step 3: Consider Your Preferred Fit

Relaxed / Street-ready: Choose the size where your chest measurement is in the middle of the range.
Fitted / Trim: Choose the size where your chest is near the upper end of the range (or even size down).
Layered / Boxy: Size up one from your usual.

Step 4: Don't Forget Length and Sleeves

The hoodie has a standard rise - not cropped, not too long. If you're tall or have long arms, you might prefer a size up for extra sleeve length.

Common Questions on Fit

"I'm usually a large in other brands, should I stick with large?" Yes, most fans report that the Prof G Pod Premium Hoodie fits true to size for an oversized look. But if you're between sizes, go with the larger option.

"Does it shrink?" The 80/20 cotton-poly blend is pre-shrunk, but minimal shrinkage (<3%) can happen in high heat. Wash cold and tumble dry low to keep the fit consistent.

"What if I want a more athletic fit?" Size down. The hoodie is intentionally roomy, so dropping one size gives you a closer cut without being tight.
