Our goal for this story was to mine the depths of Amazon and look for the cutest sweatshirts on your behalf. This includes regular sweatshirts and hoodies in a variety of styles — from oversized to cropped. The research included a review of industry statistics, such as Statista's report on Jerseys, Sweatshirts & Pullovers, as well as related market data. With that foundation in place, we considered social and cultural trends — i.e., how and where sweatshirts play a role in social media.
From there, we hunkered down on Amazon for a deep dive, researching keywords as far-reaching as "unique sweatshirts," "trending sweatshirts," "graphic hoodies," and "best women's hoodies." In total, the research included over 37 sweatshirt keyword combinations. In an effort to create a list that is unique, we left room for creativity as well. In other words, we explored different fashion aesthetics, from twee to sporty and beyond.
All of the sweatshirts are under $35, with the exception of one mini-splurge that tops out just shy of $60 (spoiler alert: it involves Billie Eilish). And lastly, we didn't limit the search to only the products with the most reviews. Therefore, a few inclusions are particularly exciting because they're newly minted and cute enough to make you a bona fide trendsetter.
