The Premium Hoodie: Pullover Classic
The Linus Tech Tips Premium Hoodie is the go-to for fans who want that classic, street-ready look. It's a heavy-duty pullover with a brushed interior - perfect for those all-night editing sessions when you need to stay warm and comfortable.
Why it works
- Weight & warmth: At 320gsm, this hoodie is built for winter LAN parties or chilly server rooms. The thick fleece traps heat without making you sweat.
- Design details: The large Linus Tech Tips logo on the back and left chest give it a bold, unmistakable look. It's the same hoodie Linus wore in the "I bought the world's fastest SSD" video - and it held up through hours of bench tests.
- Texture: The brushed interior feels soft against your skin, so you can wear it all day without irritation.
- Versatile style: Pair it with jeans or joggers for a relaxed fit that works both on stream and at the grocery store.
If you're after a cozy, no-fuss layer that makes a statement, the Premium Hoodie is your pick. Grab yours from the official Linus Tech Tips store today.
The Zip-Up Hoodie: Versatile Layer
For fans who prefer a more adjustable option, the Linus Tech Tips zip-up hoodie offers flexibility. It's part of Linus Tech Tips's hoodie collection and brings a different set of strengths.
Why it works
- Layering champ: The zip front lets you open it up over a Linus Tech Tips Classic T-Shirt or Polo Shirt for a smart-casual look. Perfect for recording days when you need to go from warm to cool quickly.
- Pocket practicality: The zippered chest pocket keeps your phone or wallet secure while you're reaching for cables under your desk.
- Mid-weight balance: Not as heavy as the pullover, but still warm enough for most office AC. Great for year-round wear.
- Easy on/off: When you're rushing to a meeting or unboxing, the zip-up saves you from messing up your hair - or knocking over a drink.
Linus has been spotted wearing the zip-up during WAN Show segments when he's moving around the set. It's the merch you can throw on and forget about.
Which One Should You Get?
Go with the Premium Hoodie if:
- You want maximum warmth and a classic pullover silhouette.
- You're usually sitting still - gaming, coding, or binging tech reviews.
- You love bold branding that stands out.
Go with the Zip-Up if:
- You need a layer that adapts to temperature changes.
- You're active on set or move around a lot during the day.
- You prefer a more understated look (the zip-up has a smaller logo).
Both are solid picks. The pullover works better for cozy sessions, while the zip-up is the move if you want versatility and ease. Explore the full collection to see which fits your style best.
