Three Styles of Leavers Hoodies for 2025

Leavers hoodies are more than just a piece of clothing—they’re a symbol of memories, friendships, and the end of an unforgettable chapter. As we step into 2025, hoodie designs are evolving, offering students more ways than ever to showcase their school spirit and individuality. From bold, eye-catching graphics to sleek minimalist styles, this year’s trends bring something for everyone.

In this blog, we’ll explore three of the most popular leavers hoodie styles for 2025—whether you're looking for a classic design, a modern twist, or a completely personalized look. Let’s dive into the styles that will make your leavers hoodie a keepsake to remember!

Traditional Leavers

This traditional style of Leavers hoodie is iconic. This style of design is most common across UK schools. It features the school logo on the front and the Leavers design on the back. The Leavers design features a hollow year number which is personalised with the names of all the students in that year.

These hoodies are extremely simple to print thanks to all the education that Stahls' UK have produced around this type of design. Not only do they offer a free artwork template for the back print every year but also a years refresher on the artwork tutorial, making it an extremely accessible form of income.

Personalised Leavers

This style of Leavers design is emerging as a fan favourite into 2025. It offers each student the ability to have their initials on their hoodie. This may be on a sleeve but can commonly be found on the chest.

Another emerging trend is a new style of back print where the number design is not utilised. Instead, schools are favouring a music/tour style print where student names are listed out like the venues and dates that a musician might be touring.

Varsity Leavers

Inspired by US colleges, this style of Leavers hoodie often forgo's the school logo all together in favour of a custom typographic design across the chest. This is made up from a curved sports/college font that matches the traditional 25 design that goes on the back on the hoodie. Similarly to the traditional Leavers hoodie, the back print contains the names of the school Leavers and can be artworked using the Stahls' artworking template.
