500gsm of pure substance. Built like The Roots built their legacy.
When The Roots dropped Game Theory in 2006, the industry was chasing ringtone rap and disposable hits. ?uestlove and Black Thought said no—we're building something that lasts. While others were going for quick radio spins, The Roots doubled down on live instrumentation, thoughtful lyrics, and uncompromising artistry.
This hoodie has that same philosophy.
500gsm brushed fleece. That's not a spec—it's a statement. This is the heaviest hoodie in our lineup, built for those who understand that quality has weight. You feel the difference the moment you put it on. The warmth, the drape, the way it sits on your shoulders—this is substance over hype.
Dropped shoulders and an oversized hood give you that authentic streetwear silhouette without the cartoonish proportions flooding today's market. This is the real oversized aesthetic—roomy, comfortable, practical. The way it was meant to be.
The 4TC X-logo sits clean on the chest. The graffiti-inspired back graphic pays homage to one of hiphop's four elements—visual art that built the culture alongside the music. Hand-finished in the UK because mass production doesn't align with our values.
Real talk: The Roots never took shortcuts. Neither do we. This hoodie is built to last seasons, not trends. Premium materials, thoughtful construction, cultural authenticity. When everyone else is chasing what's next, we're focused on what matters.
Available in Black and Heather Grey. Limited production. Built for the culture.
