adidas® Lightweight hoodie

Product Overview

The adidas Lightweight Hoodie (AD055) is a technically advanced mid-layer engineered specifically for the active professional. Designed to combat the chill on the golf course or during outdoor site visits, this half-zip hoodie offers a sophisticated alternative to standard activewear. It utilises soft, lightweight interlock fabric that has been designed to move with the wearer, ensuring that performance is never hindered by the garment. Incorporating recycled materials and adidas's AEROREADY technology, it prioritises both environmental responsibility and wearer comfort through superior moisture management.

Key Features

• Integrated AEROREADY technology actively wicks perspiration away from the skin, ensuring you remain dry and comfortable throughout the day.
• The lightweight interlock fabric construction provides a smooth, durable finish that maintains its shape after repeated wear.
• A functional half-zip design allows for easy layering and provides the wearer with manual temperature control.
• The inclusion of elastane within the fabric blend ensures maximum flexibility, which is essential for a full range of motion during a golf swing or physical tasks.

Design & Performance

This garment is constructed from a high-performance blend of 91% recycled polyester and 9% elastane. The substantial elastane content is a critical design feature, providing the necessary 'give' for active environments without the fabric becoming overstretched. The interlock weave produces a double-knit fabric that is smooth on both sides, offering a premium feel against the skin and a professional exterior appearance.

The hoodie is designed with layering in mind. Its lightweight profile allows it to sit comfortably over a polo shirt or t-shirt, and it is thin enough to be worn under a waterproof jacket without causing restriction or bulk. The addition of a hood provides essential coverage when weather conditions fluctuate, while the subtle print adds a professional, modern aesthetic.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The smooth surface of the interlock fabric makes this adidas hoodie an ideal candidate for customisation. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery. This method is perfect for company logos or individual names, providing a durable, high-quality texture that complements the premium nature of the adidas brand.

For larger, more vibrant designs, heat transfer printing is an excellent alternative. This allows for bold branding on the back or chest without compromising the lightweight feel of the fabric. Our specialist team in Telford, with expertise dating back to 1976, handles all customisation in-house to ensure your branding meets our rigorous quality standards.

Use Cases

While technically tailored for golf, this hoodie is a versatile choice for any business looking to project a smart, active image. It is particularly suited for staff uniforms in the leisure and tourism sectors, as well as for corporate event wear. Its moisture-wicking properties also make it an excellent choice for tradespeople who require a professional appearance while performing physically demanding work in cooler temperatures.

Practical Advice

This hoodie is a lightweight garment designed for a regular fit. To ensure the best appearance and performance, we recommend checking the chest measurements provided in the size range, which spans from Small (34.5/36") to 2XL (47/51"). Due to the stretch provided by the elastane, it accommodates a variety of body shapes while maintaining a clean, professional silhouette.

Caring for your product

To maintain the technical performance and the integrity of your custom branding, this garment should be washed with all fasteners closed. This prevents the zip from causing mechanical damage to the interlock weave during the wash cycle.

We strongly advise against the use of fabric softeners. Softeners can coat the synthetic fibres, which impairs the AEROREADY moisture-wicking technology and can eventually lead to the degradation of the elastane. Always wash this garment separately and remove it promptly from the machine to maintain its shape.

If tumble drying is required, use a low temperature setting only. High heat can damage the recycled polyester fibres and affect the adhesion of printed logos. Proper care ensures the garment continues to perform and look professional for its entire lifespan.
