I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I’m surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I’m prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I’m the only one.
That’s a zippered hoodie
I really like these because they’re convenient. I call them a hoodie.
Then I realised I never use the hood and it’s kinda uncomfortable when you put a jacket on in winter
So I bought one without a hood
That was the day I realised I’d bought what was essentially my first cardigan :(
If it has a zipper I’d consider it a sweater not a cardigan. Cardis have buttons.
(Realizing that a cardigan is a type of sweater, but I just mean it’s a different kind of sweater)
You keep telling yourself that when you’re 50 my friend 😂
So OP is a hooded cardigan.
It’s a hoodie.
Ugh, I spent entirely too much time arguing this when I was still in school, ironically the most time we spent arguing with men that were more than twice my age and felt way too strongly about this.
This is the right answer and I will not be taking any questions: 🙃
-
If it comes as a set with matching bottoms(or a gold chain) = Tracksuit/Sweatsuit
-
Light single layer + hood = hoodie
-
Light (single layer) + zipper/buttons + no hood = Jacket
-
Light (single layer) + knitted = sweater or sweater jacket if it opens
-
The other lighter layers with no hardware are just pullover
-
Heavier outterwear = Coat
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk
You wrote all of that and left out the one in the picture
It’s a zip up hoodie
Just hoodie.

I’d call it a “hoodie”.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoodie
A hoodie (in some cases spelled hoody[1] and alternatively known as a hooded garment)[2] is a type of sweatshirt[1] with a hood that partially or fully covers the wearer’s head or face.
Wikipedia says that the zipper can be a defining characteristic:

List of jackets
- Hoodie, a zippered hooded sweatshirt (non zippered can be considered a sweatshirt only)

That clears things up… this jacket is a zippered hooded sweatshirt.
Wait, that resolves nothing!
It’s a hoodie.
That my friend, is called a hoodie.
Depends what it’s made of IMO. That form factor can be a jacket if it’s made of jacket material, but the one pictured appears to be made of sweater material, and it’s therefore a hoodie, which is a sweater.
According to the TSA, it’s a jacket. Ask me how I know.
It’s clearly white and gold
Sweatshirt when zipped, jacket when unzipped, always hoodie.
It’s down to the material. That looks like full cotton with a hood. So, sweatshirt. Hooded sweatshirt = Hoodie. Denim? Would’ve been a jacket. Some sort of wind blocking material like polyester or nylon would be a jacket. I might give jacket status to a multilayer cotton jacket with inner liners too.
nylon
Then it’s a windbreaker
I’d classify a windbreaker as a jacket. All squares are rectangles and what not.
This kinda rocks my world. I never thought of it being based on the material, no wonder I’ve always found the whole hoodie / sweatshirt / sweater / jacket think confusing.
Hmmm…still not sure it makes sense to me…
That’s alright. It doesn’t matter in the slightest. If you want to call them whatever it doesn’t matter.
Where I’m from a sweatshirt is a very specific thing which doesn’t have a zip.
Standard haxor uniform for posing for pictures.
Missing are the black jeans, black sunglasses and/or the Guy Fawkes madk.
A swacket.
