If you've ever bought a hoodie that lost its shape after two washes, felt thin in winter, or just didn't feel premium — you're not alone. Most hoodies in the Indian market are made with 280-300 GSM fabric. They look good in photos but disappoint in real life.
At Bokka, we do things differently. Our hoodies are made with 430 GSM heavyweight fabric — and in this post, we'll explain exactly why that matters for you.
What is GSM?
GSM stands for Grams per Square Metre. It's the standard measurement for fabric weight and thickness. The higher the GSM, the heavier, thicker, and more durable the fabric.
- 180-220 GSM — Thin, lightweight, summer T-shirts
- 280-320 GSM — Average hoodies you find in most stores
- 400-450 GSM — Premium heavyweight hoodies worn by streetwear brands worldwide
Our 430 GSM hoodie sits right at the top of that range.
Why 430 GSM Feels Different
The moment you put on a 430 GSM hoodie, you feel the difference. It has a substantial weight that drapes beautifully, keeps you warm without a jacket, and holds its shape wash after wash.
Our fabric is 88% Cotton and 12% Polyester with a brushed loopknit interior — meaning the inside is soft and fluffy, while the outside is structured and clean.
Built for the Indian Street
Indian winters can be unpredictable. Whether you're in Delhi dealing with 5°C nights or in Bangalore where the evenings get surprisingly cold, a 430 GSM hoodie is the perfect layer. Throw it over a tee and you're good to go — no need for a separate jacket.
The dropshoulder oversized fit gives it that street-ready silhouette that's everywhere right now — worn by everyone from college students to content creators.
