Where to Buy Baja Hoodies

By Shannon Cutts , last updated January 20, 2012

The original Baja hoodies may have hailed from Baja, Mexico, but today's Baja hoodies are from Baja in name only. This makes it much easier to figure out where to buy them, as there are many more options available. Baja hoodies actually get their name from the type of material they are woven from, which is interchangeably called "Baja" or "franella", and are worn all over the world thanks to a wealth of online retailers. Baja hoodies are also frequently known as "hippie hoodies" and "surfer hoodies," but neither of these monikers accurately describe the folks who actually wear Baja hoodies. Baja hoodies are great for camping trips, trips where there will be changeable weather, such as beach outings, and anywhere where you are seeking outerwear that seamlessly blends comfort, warmth, and earthy style together.

How to Wear Baja Hoodies
 
Baja hoodies can be worn on their own, but are most frequently worn as outergarments over a shirt or two to lock in warmth and serve as an alternative to a jacket or sweatshirt. More stylish than a sweatshirt and more functional than a jacket, a Baja hoodie can go wherever you go from morning til evening. Most frequently, Baja hoodie designers craft their Baja hoodies out of recycled fibers in colorful variegated designs, including stripes and Rasta-inspired designs. Some Baja hoodies are made of a single color, but most display a colorful pattern featuring two or more colors that can pair well with a variety of outfits.
 
Baja hoodies are pullover garments and, of course, have hoods. The best thing about Baja hoodies is that they are so tightly knit that they can also serve as a windbreaker for outdoor festivals, concerts, and even boat rides. However, Baja hoodies are not fitted, but rather they are cut in a square, boxy style that can fit over even the bulkiest undergarments with ease.
