Who This Collection Is For
Built for men who want gym kit that doesn't look like an afterthought. If you're training regularly and want a men's zip hoodie that handles sessions, commutes, and rest days without switching up, this collection covers it.
These hoodies suit anyone from the guy who trains five days a week to the one who prefers a Saturday morning walk over a barbell. The range includes oversized fits for those who like room to move, and cleaner cuts for anyone who prefers a more structured look off the gym floor.
When to Wear Men's Zip Up Hoodies
A mens zip through hoodie earns its keep across the whole day — not just the gym. Layer one over a training tee before your warm-up, zip it off mid-session, and throw it back on for the walk home. The 2-way zip styles offer added ventilation when you need it, without having to ditch the layer entirely.
Away from training, these pieces hold their own on rest days, travel days, and anything in between. The fleece and borg styles in particular hit well in cooler conditions, while the loopback cotton options work year-round as an everyday go-to.
Key Features
Multiple Zip Formats
The range spans full zip, 2-way zip, and quarter-zip constructions — each serving a different purpose. The 2-way zip gives you ventilation control during training; the 1/4 zip keeps things streamlined for layering; the full zip offers the most versatility for on-and-off wear.
Fabric Built for Feel
From heavyweight loopback cotton to soft borg and brushed fleece, the fabrics across this range are chosen for texture and feel. Each material feels considered — not just filler weight to hit a price point.
Oversized and Standard Fits
Oversized cuts give you genuine room through the chest and shoulders, not just a size up on a standard template. Standard fits sit closer without feeling restrictive — useful when you're layering under a jacket or want a cleaner look on rest days.
Designed In-House
Every hoodie in this range is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team, built around what gym-goers actually need from a zip-up layer rather than what looks good on a mood board.

FAQs
What's the difference between a full zip, 2-way zip, and 1/4 zip hoodie?
A full zip runs the full length of the hoodie and opens completely — great for throwing on and off quickly. A 2-way zip does the same but also unzips from the bottom, which helps with ventilation during training or if you're sitting down for long periods. A men's quarter zip hoodie has a shorter zip at the collar, giving a more fitted, layering-friendly look without the full opening. All three formats are available in this range, so it comes down to how you plan to wear it.
What is a mens zip up hoodie typically made from?
It varies by style. The Oversized Loopback pieces use heavyweight cotton loopback fabric, which has a smooth outer face and a textured inner. The fleece styles use brushed fabric that feels soft against the skin. The Borg Full Zip uses a textured borg fleece, which has a thicker, more insulating structure. Check the individual product pages for exact fabric compositions before buying.
How do I choose the right size for a men's zip through hoodie?
Start with the size guide on each individual product page — fit can vary between styles, particularly between oversized and standard cuts. The Oversized Loopback hoodies are intentionally cut large through the body and sleeves, so if you usually sit between sizes, sizing down is worth considering. For the Fleece 1/4 Zip styles, the fit runs more true to size. When in doubt, check the product page for fit notes and size guidance rather than relying on your usual size alone.
Are these hoodies suitable for gym training, or are they more casual?
Both. The mens full zip hoodie styles work well as a warm-up and cool-down layer at the gym — easy to pull on between sets or throw over kit before you hit the floor. Off the gym floor, the fleece and oversized loopback options hold up well as everyday casual wear. These aren't single-use pieces.
Which men's zip up hoodie would you recommend for everyday wear?
The MP Men's Oversized Loopback 2 Way Zip Hoodie in Chalk Grey is a strong pick for everyday use. The heavyweight loopback fabric has real substance to it, and the oversized fit gives you genuine room to move without looking sloppy. The 2-way zip also makes it more adaptable than a standard full zip when you're wearing it outside the gym.
Who designed these hoodies?
Every piece in this range is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. The brief is always the same — kit that performs in training and holds its own the rest of the day, without leaning too hard into either direction.
How should I care for my men's zip hoodie to keep it in good condition?
Always follow the care label for best results — instructions can vary between fabric types. As a general rule, washing on a cool cycle and avoiding tumble drying on high heat will help the fabric keep its shape and texture. For loopback cotton styles, turning the hoodie inside out before washing reduces surface pilling over time.
Can I wear a men's zip up hoodie for outdoor training in colder weather?
The fleece and borg styles in this range work well in cooler conditions as a mid-layer — they add warmth without bulk and zip off quickly if your body temperature climbs during a run or outdoor session. Check the product page for exact fabric, fit and feature details. before use in very cold or wet conditions.
