Balenciaga relaxed/oversized hoodies are extremely voluminous — one buyer at 183 cm said even a size S still fit like a baggy sack, so sizing down or accepting a very loose look is the common guidance.

This suits someone who wants a genuinely loose, drop-shoulder hoodie in heavy cotton with embroidered and printed basketball graphics, offered in green, black, purple and blue. The only sizing evidence is category-level Balenciaga reporting, not this listing, so ask the agent for chest and body-length measurements before choosing a size.

Pros
- · Catalog lists 460 gsm custom-woven, custom-dyed full-cotton sweatshirt fabric with a clean surface and clear weave.
- · Front decoration is described as Tajima computerized embroidery plus print, with a patch at the lower-left hem and a back print.
- · Ribbing is described as custom-dyed to match, and the print uses imported eco materials with clear, dimensional lettering.
- · Offered in four colours — green, black, purple, cyan — in unisex XS–L on an oversized drop-shoulder cut.
Cons
- · Category reporting on Balenciaga hoodies warns the volume can be extreme — one 183 cm buyer described an S as a baggy sack — and the listed OS drop-shoulder cut points the same direction, so expect a very loose look.
Fit notes
Catalog fit is an OS drop-shoulder, unisex XS–L. Buyer reports on Balenciaga hoodies describe extreme width with modest body length, about 25 inches, and put a numeric size 2 at a medium. Those reports are not about this listing — request chest, shoulder and body-length measurements from the agent before choosing.
Buy if
You want an oversized, drop-shoulder hoodie and treat the volume as the point rather than a problem. The listed build — 460 gsm cotton, Tajima embroidery, custom-dyed ribbing, unisex XS–L — matches that brief, provided you confirm measurements with the agent first.
Skip if
You want a trim or true-to-size fit, or you want buyer feedback on this specific hoodie before ordering. Reports on Balenciaga hoodies generally describe heavy volume and roughly 25-inch body length, and nothing here confirms or contradicts that for this item.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
How should I size this hoodie?⌄
The catalog describes an OS drop-shoulder cut, and buyer reports on Balenciaga hoodies say even an S can look very baggy, so sizing down suits a closer fit. Confirm chest and length measurements with the agent first.
Does going up a size add length?⌄
Buyer reports say no — Balenciaga's oversized fit adds width and side room rather than body length, which one buyer put at roughly 25 inches. Verify the measurements before sizing up.
What does a numeric size 2 mean?⌄
In Balenciaga's numeric sizing, a size 2 corresponds to a medium according to buyer discussion. This listing is lettered XS–L, so ask the agent how the letters map if you normally buy numeric sizes.
What are the fabric and decoration?⌄
The catalog states 460 gsm custom-woven, custom-dyed full cotton, Tajima computerized front embroidery with print, a lower-left patch, a back print, and custom-dyed matching ribbing. These are listing specifications rather than independently verified results.
Evidence
Public notes used
For Balenciaga hoodies, buyers note that an oversized fit does not necessarily mean extra body length (roughly 25 inches), since the extra room is mostly in the width and sides; a size 2 corresponds to a medium.
