Is The Plunge 100% Organic Cotton Hoodie suitable for year-round wear?

Yes. The Plunge hoodie is suitable for year-round wear in many climates because of its balanced fabric weight and construction. It is made from 280gsm combed ringspun organic cotton brushed back jersey, which provides insulating warmth without sacrificing breathability. Design details such as a double-layer hood, full needle double-layer cuffs, ribbed hem and a kangaroo pocket add wind resistance and layering flexibility, so the piece works as a standalone layer in cool months and as a mid layer when temperatures drop. The organic cotton also softens with time for comfortable indoor use. Ideal users are style-driven customers who want a durable, breathable hoodie for seasonal transitions and travel. It may be less comfortable in very hot, humid climates where lightweight or moisture-wicking fabrics are preferred.

How does The Plunge hoodie differ from typical mass-market hoodies?

The Plunge hoodie differs in three clear ways: materials, production standards and artistic exclusivity. It is crafted from combed ringspun organic cotton at a 280gsm weight and is produced under WRAP, GOTS and OEKO-TEX certifications, which document lower chemical use, responsible manufacturing and tested safety. Each piece features original oil-painting artwork by Ane Howard and is made-to-order in limited runs, rather than mass-produced in large batches. That combination yields a heavier, longer-wearing garment with traceable sustainability credentials and collectible design. This suits shoppers who prioritize sustainable, limited-edition wearable art and slow-fashion quality. The trade-off is longer lead times and smaller quantities compared with mass-produced hoodies, so availability can be more limited.

Is The Plunge hoodie suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies?

Yes, The Plunge hoodie is well suited for many people with sensitive skin, with a few practical notes. The fabric is GOTS-certified organic cotton and the product carries OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 and MADE IN GREEN certifications, indicating it has been tested for harmful substances and produced under monitored conditions. The combed ringspun organic cotton brushed back jersey is gentle and soft against skin. For the Heather Grey option, the fabric includes 10% viscose, which may affect sensitivity for a small number of people. For extra caution, we recommend washing the garment before first wear and performing a quick patch test if you have severe textile allergies. These features make it a good choice for shoppers seeking lower-chemical, comfortable apparel with verified certifications.
