Enlightened Zip-Up Hoodie Breakdown

• Price: $49.99 (same as pullover)
• Key features: Full zipper, side pockets, same logo and graphic placement on back.

Which One Should You Get?

It comes down to how you wear your hoodies. If you prefer a classic, relaxed silhouette and don't want to fuss with a zipper, the pullover is your move. It's a staple for lazy Sundays and showing off that back graphic.

If you're always layering or need to adjust your temperature throughout the day, the zip-up is the better pick. It works seamlessly with the Enlightened Polo Shirt for a smart-casual vibe, or on its own for an athletic edge.

Both are built from the same heavy fleece, so warmth and quality are identical. Choose based on your daily routine. And if you still can't decide? Grab both - they're the same price, and you'll never have to choose again. - -
