A hoodie that lasts?

I don't want to spend a fortune as I generally just wear them in the house but I want one that lasts more than a couple of washes
Think my last one came from Dorothy Perkins and went very bobbly after 2 washes
Is there a hoodie that will survive a few washes without looking totally worn out or is this just part and parcel of the material ?

DH has lots of fat face which wear well, DS has lots of Vans which wear very well. We have a Billabong hoody I bought for DS1 10 years ago, was handed down to DS2 and is still dorm by DD and looks brand new.

I’ve got a Primark one I bought about five years ago that comes out every winter as it’s thick and warm. It’s just very slightly faded from washing, no bobbles.

I've never had a hood nobble snd mine are random club/events ones, never over £25. But they are all 100% cotton

I recommend Colourful Standard. No logos. Very good quality , lots of sizes and colours and about £60 which I think is fair

I have a couple of hoodies from the tattoo studio that I've had for years. They weren't expensive.

They are printed fruit of the loom hoodies. Warm comfortable and not expensive

Wash and wear all the time
