Mens Black Zip Hoodie 400 GSM Metal Zipper, Bio-Washed

The black zip hoodie the wardrobe reaches for first -- at the weight and construction that justifies being reached for last as well.

The black zip hoodie is the most searched, most purchased, and most disappointed category in the Indian hoodie market. The search volume is real; the available quality at most Indian price points is not. The typical Indian black zip hoodie is constructed at 260-300 GSM with a plastic zipper that stiffens through washing, on a hood that flattens and loses its shape, and a hem that stretches within two seasons of regular wear. The buyer who has cycled through two or three of these is now searching specifically for a better version -- and is the primary conversion target for this page.

The Bombay Bear Black Zip Hoodie is built at 400 GSM 90/10 cotton-poly -- 33-55% heavier than the standard Indian market zip hoodie -- with a metal zipper that maintains its smooth operation through the full life of the garment. Bio-washing converts the stiffness of new 400 GSM black cotton-poly into a surface that is soft, warm, and completely comfortable from the first wear; the colour is at full depth, the surface is settled, and the zipper runs clean from day one. Super combed construction gives the black fabric the surface density that black at 400 GSM requires to read with its full depth and tonal consistency through repeated washing. Derby ribbed hem and cuffs hold their structural precision at the anchor points; pre-shrunk construction locks the dimensions from the first wash. The hood is built with the weight of 400 GSM fabric -- it falls with the physical presence that lighter zip hoodies cannot achieve.

Wear open over a white Bombay Bear Oversized T-Shirt for the definitive black zip hoodie layered combination. Close fully for the clean heavyweight outer layer in transitional and cooler weather. Style with any bottom -- the black 400 GSM zip hoodie is the most versatile outer layer in the Bombay Bear range.
