Product Overview
The adidas UPF lightweight quarter-zip pullover represents a significant step forward in sustainable active workwear. This garment is engineered to provide a sophisticated layer of comfort for professionals who face the unpredictability of the British climate, particularly during early morning starts or as temperatures fluctuate throughout the working day. Constructed entirely from recycled materials, it offers a high-performance solution that aligns with modern environmental standards without sacrificing the professional aesthetic associated with the adidas brand.
Key Features
- 100% Recycled Polyester: By utilising recycled fibres, this pullover reduces environmental impact while maintaining the durability and moisture-management properties essential for active work.
- UPF Sun Protection: The fabric is specifically designed to block harmful ultraviolet rays, providing a critical layer of safety for staff working in outdoor environments.
- Quarter-Zip Silhouette: The adjustable neckline allows for immediate temperature regulation, ensuring the wearer remains comfortable as activity levels increase or conditions change.
- Soft Knit Fabric: The choice of a soft-touch knit ensures a premium feel against the skin, minimising irritation during extended periods of wear.
Design & Performance
This is a well-engineered garment that focuses on lightweight performance. The 100% recycled polyester knit is remarkably soft, providing the comfort of a traditional sweatshirt with the technical advantages of modern sportswear. Its lightweight nature ensures that it does not feel restrictive when worn over a polo shirt or under a more substantial outer layer. The fabric's breathability is a key performance factor, wicking moisture away from the body to maintain a professional appearance even during physical exertion.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, consistent finish of the recycled polyester makes this pullover an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery. For a formal, long-lasting professional look, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names; it provides a textured, high-quality finish that withstands regular industrial laundering. For larger, more striking branding or promotional event graphics, our printing services offer a bold and vibrant alternative. Since 1976, our Telford-based team has specialised in ensuring that your brand is represented with precision and durability.
Use Cases
This pullover is exceptionally versatile, making it suitable for a wide array of sectors. It is a premier choice for the golf and leisure industry, as well as for corporate event staff who require a smart yet athletic appearance. It also serves as an excellent mid-layer for tradespeople working in environments where sun protection and ease of movement are paramount.

Practical Advice
This garment is designed with an athletic fit in mind. If you intend to wear it as a primary layer over a thicker shirt, you may find that moving up one size provides a more comfortable range of motion. The size range accommodates chest measurements from 34.5 inches (Small) up to 51 inches (2XL), ensuring a professional fit for the whole team.
Caring for your product
To preserve the technical integrity of the recycled polyester and ensure your custom branding remains sharp, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can lead to the breakdown of synthetic fibres and may cause the embroidery or print to degrade prematurely.
Under no circumstances should bleach be used. Bleach is highly abrasive and will strip the colour from the garment and your logo, as well as weakening the fabric structure. For drying, a low-temperature tumble dry is acceptable, though air drying is recommended to maintain the garment's shape over time.
If the pullover requires pressing, use a low-temperature iron. High heat can melt the recycled polyester fibres and damage the adhesive bonds in printed designs. Proper care ensures this lightweight layer remains a staple of your work wardrobe for years to come.
