420 GSM Heavyweight French Terry Pullover Hoodie | STRATA MX Signature
420 GSM organic cotton French terry. Architectural Boxy fit. Drawstring-free double-layer hood. Peached outer face.
A 420 GSM French terry pullover hoodie with a softly peached exterior and a clean, drawstring-free hood. STRATA MX Signature applies face-only Triple Carbon Peach to dense organic cotton three-end French terry, while the knitted loops on the reverse stay unbrushed.
The double-layer hood combines the substantial French terry outer with a lighter, color-matched organic cotton jersey lining. Its front edges meet without overlap, drawcords, or eyelets. One wide kangaroo pocket gives both hands access to the same pouch, with reinforced angled openings and an uninterrupted pullover front.
Generous chest room, dropped shoulders, and full-length set-in sleeves create the Architectural Boxy silhouette. The body is not cropped; 7 cm ribbed cuffs and a 7 cm hem finish the shape. Controlled washing gives Burnt Umber and Dark Earth restrained tonal depth, with raised white tiger-head embroidery on both colors.
Wear it over a T-shirt with denim or relaxed pants. MX brings a softer outer surface to our heavyweight essentials.

The main French terry is one integral knit: its dense face and reverse loops are formed together, not bonded as separate layers. Only the hood has a separate, lighter jersey lining. Triple Carbon Peach is applied to the outer face of the shell, not the loopback reverse.
MX Signature and BX Armor share the same Architectural Boxy pullover hoodie pattern: generous chest room, dropped shoulders, full-length set-in sleeves, and a non-cropped body. The hood and kangaroo pocket are part of this hoodie’s own construction, not additions to the raglan sweatshirt pattern.
Our size labels are intentionally generous. Start with the body-chest guide, then compare a hoodie you own with the finished measurements below. At a boundary between sizes, use your preferred proportions and layering needs rather than assuming a universal size conversion.

How to Measure
Measurement
How to measure
Body chest
Measure around the fullest part of your chest with the tape level and relaxed. This is a body circumference, not a flat garment width.
Half chest
Lay the hoodie flat. Measure straight across 2.5 cm vertically below the underarm intersections. This is the hoodie-specific measuring point, not the underarm-level method used on our T-shirts and some sweatshirts.
Body length
Move the hood clear. Measure from the high shoulder point at the shoulder/neck join straight down to the finished bottom edge, parallel to the center front. Include the full hem rib; do not include the hood.
Shoulder width
Measure straight across the back between the shoulder-to-sleeve seam intersections.
Sleeve length
Measure from the shoulder-to-sleeve seam intersection along the top sleeve fold to the finished cuff edge, including the complete cuff. Do not use a raglan or center-back-neck measurement.
Measure the garment dry and relaxed, without stretching the body or ribs. Check body length and sleeve length as well as chest width.
For additional guidance, see our Size & Fit Guide.
STRATA gives this heavyweight French terry a different color expression. A controlled wash introduces subtle tonal depth rather than aggressive acid washing or heavy distressing.

Chest embroidery
Burnt Umber
Warm, oxidized orange-brown with restrained washed depth.

Our pullover hoodie quality standard applies to the finished French terry and the assembled garment, including the hood, pocket, and rib interfaces.

Care step
Instruction
Wash
Machine wash cold, maximum 30°C / 86°F, on a gentle cycle. Turn inside out and wash with similar colors. Wash dark colors separately.
Bleach
Do not bleach.
Dry
Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape and line dry in the shade without stretching the neck or shoulders.
Iron
Use low heat on the reverse only if permitted by the garment care label. Avoid direct heat or pressure on the embroidery and, on MX, the peached outer face.
For washing, drying, and ironing, follow the care label attached to your hoodie. Its instructions apply to the complete garment, including the French terry shell, organic cotton jersey hood lining, rib trims, and embroidery.
Do not use the laboratory methods in the quality table as home-care instructions.

Choose it for

Choose by the outer surface you prefer. Neither series adds drawstrings, eyelets, or a front zipper, and the MX finish does not turn the loopback interior into brushed fleece.
Question
Answer
Does this hoodie have drawstrings or a zipper?
No. The double-layer hood has no drawcords, eyelets, or cord channel, and the front has no zipper. The hood’s front ends meet without overlap.
Is the hood lined with the same 420 GSM French terry?
The outer hood uses the same 420 GSM French terry as the body. The lining is a separate, color-matched 220–260 GSM organic cotton single jersey, with its smooth face toward the wearer.
How is STRATA MX different from STRATA BX?
Both share the same Architectural Boxy pullover pattern, finished measurements, hood, pocket, and rib construction. MX has a face-only Triple Carbon Peach finish; BX retains an unbrushed face. The terry reverse stays unbrushed in both.
Do the two pocket openings lead to separate pockets?
No. Both angled hand openings connect to one shared kangaroo pouch. Each opening is reinforced at both ends.
