Do Nike Hoodies Run Small? [Sizing Guide]

Some Nike hoodies run small. However, there are few complaints because all the Nike hoodies are large and spacious.

Nike clearly states in every hoodie description whether the jacket is loose, standard or oversized.

There are jackets that fit smaller than the ones being worn by real people.

Thence. So that you can make an informed decision, I will provide tables for Men and Women.

These Nike Hoodies come in a variety of sizes: Small, Large, or Ture To Size.

These recommendations were based on real Nike Hoodie Users’ reviews.

Nike Hoodies for Women

Nike Hoodies	Style	What Do They Fit?
Funnel Neck Hoodie	BV4526-695	Although true to size, the waist is a bit too big. It also runs a little small if your torso is long. This is why you should choose a size that suits your body.
Sportswear Gym Vintage Women’s Full Zip Hoodie	CJ1694-814	True to size, but a bit too big for the shoulders
Women’s Essential Full-Zip Hoodie (Tech Fleece)	DD5624-222	It fits well, but elastic ribs can make it feel tighter/snugger for those with larger forearms.
Jordan Flight Women’s Fleece Pullover Hoodie	CV7737-010	The fit is loose so order a small size if you need a tighter fit.
Therma Women’s pullover training hoodie	CU5500-073	It fits well, but the arms are too short so be aware.
Tech Pack Hoodie for women	CZ8930-010	The large fit makes it feel spacious and baggy. If you don’t need extra space, go small.

Nike Hoodies Fit Types

There are two types Nike fit offers for Hoodies

• Hoodies with a standard fit offer a more relaxed feel. However, a thin layer of shirt or tshirt can be worn underneath the hoodie.
• Another fit is loose, which offers a more spacious and comfortable feeling. You can wear a thin sweater underneath this fit and still have enough space.

One thing I noticed is that there are only two sizes of women’s standard and loose clothing.

Yes, I tried to find a loose fit in men’s hoodies. But none have it.

Sizes Available

After trying out many brands of jackets and hoodies I found Nike to be the best.

All sizes are available in Small to 4XL sizes for the average person. The taller versions for people with a longer torso can be found in all sizes.

Nike DriFIT & Nike Sportswear Club Fleece Pullover Hoodie offer sizes small and tall up to 4XL &4XL Tall.

Some hoodies, such as the Nike Sportswear Club Fleece, offer a custom size option.

Conclusion – A Pro Sizing Tip

Nike Hoodies: Do they run small or big? Some Nike hoodies run small, but the majority are either true to size or deliberately made larger or smaller to give the hoody a more spacious and relaxed feel.

Some hoodies are too small to be sized up, except for a few.

If you are in the middle of the sizes for Nike hoodies, you can refer to the provided sizing charts

Next, choose a smaller size to achieve a more athletic or tight fit.

If you prefer a looser fit, size up.

And:

• If your bust measurement and waist measurement are different, you should order the appropriate size.
• Same goes for men. Just replace the word “bust” with “chest”.
