Sweatshirt Drawstrings: Everything You Need to Know

We know that choosing the right drawstrings for a sweatshirt can transform both comfort and style.

That's why we want to tell you all about sweatshirt drawstrings , especially those designed for hoodies.

Furthermore, all our laces are manufactured by La Industrial Algodonera (LIASA) in Tarragona, a company with over 100 years of experience in lace manufacturing. This ensures quality and durability that few can match.

Sweatshirt Drawstrings: What They Are Like and How Many Types There Are

Within sweatshirt laces, there are different variations based on length, finishes, materials, and quality . We focus on offering the best, which is why at Cord‑On Shop we explain why our laces often exceed expectations.

Length

Drawstring length is key: for a hoodie, around 120cm or longer is ideal, allowing for a snug fit without being too short.

With this length, you can tie it tightly, with extra cord on each side to adjust it to your style and prevent it from being too tight and uncomfortably tight.

Aglets on the tips

The metal or plastic tips or aglets at the ends of the lace serve several functions: they prevent wear, make it easier to thread through the eyelets, and provide a polished finish.

At Cord‑On Shop we work with strong, well-finished aglets that match the color of the cord .

So, every time you wear your sweatshirt, you'll see how those little points make an aesthetic and functional difference.

Cord stop

The stopper, the piece that secures the ends near the hood, is crucial: it prevents the cord from slipping or fraying. A good stopper ensures it doesn't shift, maintains its length , and prevents damage to the fabric.

Material

The material is one of the most important aspects. We recommend using polished cotton for sweatshirt cords: it has a pleasant texture, good wear and tear resistance, and an attractive, satiny appearance that provides casual elegance.

Compared to polyester or synthetic blends, polished cotton breathes better and retains its shape after multiple washes.

Plus, since it's manufactured by LIASA , we use high-quality cotton and traditional methods to ensure maximum durability.

Quality

It's not just about length or appearance: the quality of the cord impacts daily usability.

Poorly made laces break down: they split at the ends, become deformed, lose color, or fray.

At Cord-On Shop, we have over 100 years of experience manufacturing all types of cords, including specialized cords for sweatshirts.

This history ensures that each cord meets high standards of durability, long-lasting colors, and a pleasant texture. This historical manufacturing experience is evident in each product.

Final conclusion

Choosing the right drawstrings for your sweatshirts isn't a minor detail: it influences the comfort, fit, and style of your garment. That's why it's key to pay attention to the length, tips, stop, material, and, above all, quality.

If you want a professional, long-lasting result with a polished aesthetic, our laces are the ideal choice. Plus, if you work with custom clothing or urban fashion, we offer custom manufacturing and designer support. Contact us and we'll help you find the perfect lace for your garment, style, or project.
