Shopping for summer clothing can be intense. It should be a piece of cake to find colorful, breezy materials will withstand the blazing hot weather, but there’s so much to consider like the quality of the fabric, sizing, and on and on...
Finding light, breathable, and sustainable materials can be rather tricky, but fortunately, we at TopDust have compiled a top-tier list.
This season, hoodies are perfect for all your favorite summer activities, be it a beach night with your besties around the bonfire or a morning hiking trip that calls for UPF (Ultra Violet Protection Factor) sun protection.
Not only are these hoodies weather-appropriate, they’re also insanely stylish. (And best of all? They’re kind on the wallet.)
With sustainability, pricing, and style in mind, let’s check out the highest-quality hoodies for the season.
CHILL AND THRIVE hoodie
Why spend all summer cooped up inside when you can kick through the sand on the beach and feel the ocean breeze through your hair? When it comes to beach trips, things can get quite windy, especially if at nighttime. So, you’re gonna wanna prioritize a cozy hoodie that’s oversized and breathable rather than one with a tight fit that can chafe.
That’s where Chill and Thrive comes to the rescue — its hoodies are specifically designed for beachy summer fun! Due to the brand’s oversized design, you’ll never have to worry about feeling too hot or confined in these materials.
The last thing you want to do here is go with any old hoodie that you wear year-round. In summer, especially, looseness and breathability is key!
Pink Palm Puff hoodie

Calling all you girly-girls out there! If you love bubblegum pink and sky blue shades, you’re gonna want to check out these adorable summer hoodies by Pink Palm Puff. (Isn’t the clothing equally adorable as the brand name?)
Pink Palm Puff hopes its hoodies provide more than adorable and Instagramable fits. It’s their goal that their hoodies will help customers embody the beachy, carefree lifestyle that Pink Palm Puff represents.
While their clothes have a sun-soaked California theme, most of the designs prints are inspired by Valencia.
Be sure you grab some of these before they sell out because they’re going crazy-viral on TikTok.
When it comes to adorable summer hoodies, it doesn’t get any cuter than this.
Comfrt Sweat Set

Another summer hoodie that’s trending on TikTok comes from the Comfrt Sweat Set. Comfrt brand hoodies are selling like hotcakes, and for good reason. They’re insanely cute/high-quality, and specifically designed with mental health in mind.
That’s right. It seems strange that clothing can aid in one’s mental well-being, but in this case, Comfrt’s clothing is designed to help reduce stress and anxiety. With its heavy-weighted materials, the clothing works in the same vein as a weighted blanket.
Weighted blankets can reduce anxiety by lowering your heart rate so you can calm down. Comfrt hoodies use the same method by using occupational therapy techniques to eliminate stress. How cool is that?
Comfrt Collection in Bubblegum
@sarahcramos THE PINK?!😍😍 @Comfrt #viral #comfrt #hoodie ♬ original sound - Sarah
Here’s another Comfrt hoodie that employs the same anxiety-reducing, weighted materials as listed above. This one is adored for its yummalicious bubbly color as well as its softer-than-soft material. It also has a kangaroo pocket and matching sweatpants to round out the look.
In addition to the Bubblegum shade, Comfrt also carries this hoodie in Peach, Lavender, Baby Blue, Mint, and Canary. But they’re in limited stock, so snap them up before they vanish!
Um, can I buy all six, please?

It’s no secret that Amazon can be pretty terrific when it comes to finding basics. Sometimes, you don’t have to go out of your way to pick up precisely what you’re looking for in the clothing department. In the TikTok above, this observant influencer catches how much better her Amazon hoodie is compared to the totally overpriced Cherry Blossom SKIMS version.
The Amazon Hoodie super adorable and bubbly, but it’s also extra comfy for chilling on the couch.

Patagonia Tropic Comfort Hoodie
The Patagonia Tropic Comfort Hoodie is awesomel for all you outdoorsy types out there.This hoodie has an outrageously high UPF factor. So it will do an excellent job protecting you from the brutal rays of the summer sun.
During these boiling months, simply slabbering on the sunscreen simply will not do the trick. If you’re one to go on long hikes or enjoy bike riding and spending your summer in nature, it’s important that you take into account how much UPF your garment’s fabric has.
This gorgeous hoodie is 40+ UPF, so you’ll stay protected outside for hours. Check out colors, such as Whispy Green, Antique Pink, and Steam Blue.
