Toxic NYC Releases Its Winter Collection: Subway Map Hoodies, Heavyweight Sweatpants and Matching Sets Inspired by New York
Independent New York streetwear brand Toxic NYC has released its winter collection, built around two new lines: the Subway Map collection, which carries a New York subway map graphic, and the Toxic NYC Script collection. The release includes boxy and oversized hoodies, wide and barrel leg sweatpants, snow washed long sleeve tees and matching hoodie and sweatpants sets, all made from heavyweight fabrics between 270 and 430 GSM.
About Toxic NYC
Toxic NYC is an independent streetwear brand founded in 2023 by Tom Crissy Mor. The brand draws on the culture that shaped streetwear, including hip-hop, skateboarding, graffiti, music and art, and on New York City as a place where different backgrounds and points of view live side by side. Its guiding idea, as the brand puts it, is that fashion should reflect who you are, not tell you who to be.
The name itself is part of that message. Thinking independently or refusing to follow the crowd can make people stand out for the “wrong” reasons, and Toxic NYC turns that label into a statement of individuality under the hashtag #ToxicOrdinary.
The Subway Map Collection
The Subway Map line puts a New York subway map graphic on boxy hoodies and relaxed sweatpants. The boxy cut has dropped shoulders and a wide body, so the hoodies sit loose without looking oversized from every angle. The line includes:
- a full zip boxy hoodie (350 GSM)
- a waffle-knit boxy hoodie (360 GSM)
- a sunfade ripped boxy hoodie (370 GSM)
- a heavyweight topstitch hoodie (420 GSM)
- contrast stitched, piping and fleeced boxy hoodies (350 GSM)
- waffle and sunfade paneled barrel leg pants, three quarter sweatpants and raw edge topstitch sweatpants
The Toxic NYC Script Collection
The Script line carries the Toxic NYC script logo in several finishes: vintage wash, sunfade, frayed, raw edge and tree camo. It is also where the heaviest pieces in the collection sit, including the Essential Heavyweight Hoodie at 430 GSM and the Vintage Wash Raw Edge Hoodie at 420 GSM. Script sweatpants come in barrel leg, wide leg and straight leg cuts.
Snow Washed Long Sleeve Tees
The collection also adds five snow washed long sleeve tees at 270 GSM, with New York themed graphics named 212, Hazmat Supply Co., Waste Co., Static and Liberty Curse, plus a 305 GSM Script oversized long sleeve tee. They are designed as a layering piece under the hoodies or on their own in early fall and spring.

Matching Sets
Most hoodies in the collection have a matching pair of sweatpants in the same fabric, color and wash. Toxic NYC sells twelve of these pairings as hoodie and sweatpants sets, priced 10% lower than buying the two pieces separately. Buyers choose the size for the hoodie and the sweatpants separately, which matters for people who wear different sizes on top and bottom.
Why Fabric Weight Is the Focus
Fabric weight, measured in GSM (grams per square meter), is one of the clearest quality signals in streetwear. Light fabric collapses and clings when it is cut loose, while heavier fabric holds a boxy shape and drapes cleanly. A basic t-shirt is usually under 180 GSM. Every hoodie and sweatpant in the Toxic NYC winter collection is 340 GSM or more, which puts the whole line in the heavyweight range.
How the Pieces Are Meant to Be Worn
The collection is designed around loose, layered winter fits. A boxy hoodie works over a long sleeve tee with the matching sweatpants for a full set, or with baggy jeans and chunky sneakers for a classic streetwear look. The barrel leg sweatpants curve out at the knee and come back in at the ankle, so they stack cleanly over sneakers. For colder days, the hoodies are cut with enough room to layer under a jacket.
Finding the Right Size
Because the hoodies are cut boxy or oversized and the sweatpants have a wide or barrel leg, the brand recommends sizing by measurements rather than by the label. The simplest method is to lay a hoodie or pair of sweatpants you already like flat, measure across the chest or waist and the length, and compare the numbers with the size chart on the product page. Staying true to size gives the full relaxed look the collection is designed around, while sizing down gives a closer fit. Since the matching sets let buyers pick the top and bottom sizes separately, the same method works for each piece.
Limited Drops
Like the rest of the Toxic NYC line, the winter collection is released as limited-edition drops. Most designs do not return once they sell out, which the brand sees as part of keeping each piece personal rather than mass produced.
Availability
The winter collection is available now through the Toxic NYC online store. The brand ships to the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and Israel with tracked shipping, and shipping is free on orders over $150. Every product page lists a size chart in both inches and centimeters. Refunds are offered within 15 days for misprinted, damaged or defective items.
