Design & Performance
Constructed from a premium blend of 80% combed cotton and 20% recycled polyester, this sweatshirt offers a luxurious, soft hand-feel that belies its rugged workwear origins. The use of combed cotton ensures that shorter, weaker fibres are removed, resulting in a stronger and smoother yarn that is significantly more resistant to pilling. As a medium-weight garment, it provides a reliable level of insulation for the British climate without causing overheating during physical exertion.
The 1x1 ribbing on the hems and cuffs includes elastane, a critical inclusion that ensures the garment maintains its shape and elasticity, even after being pulled over heavy work boots or pushed up the forearms. The addition of recycled polyester not only aids durability but also aligns with modern sustainability requirements.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This hoodie is an ideal candidate for both print and embroidery, processed by our expert in-house team in Telford. The Perfect Sweat Technology creates a unique fabric density that is particularly effective for print, reducing ink absorption and ensuring bold, crisp colours that stand out.
For those seeking a more traditional, high-end professional appearance, embroidery is the recommended choice. Our team, established in 1976, has decades of experience in applying intricate logos and text, providing a textured finish that is both hard-wearing and aesthetically superior. Whether you require a small chest logo or a large back print, this garment is designed to hold decoration without sagging or distorting.
Use Cases
The versatile nature of this sweatshirt makes it suitable for a broad spectrum of industries, from independent tradespeople requiring a dependable mid-layer to warehouse and logistics teams needing a consistent corporate identity. Its refined finish also makes it an excellent choice for client-facing roles in the retail or events sectors.

Practical Advice
Available in an inclusive size range from XXS to 3XL, this hoodie offers a modern fit. If you work in an environment that requires significant layering—such as wearing a thick thermal base and a polo shirt underneath—you may find that sizing up provides the necessary range of motion. We recommend consulting the chest measurement guide to ensure the best fit for your specific physique.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and colour fastness of your sweatshirt, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove workplace grime while preserving the cotton fibres and the recycled polyester blend.
Do not use bleach under any circumstances. Bleaching agents are incredibly aggressive and will strip the dye from the fabric, leading to a patchy appearance and weakening the material to the point of failure.
While the garment is compatible with a tumble dryer, we advise using a low heat setting. High temperatures in the drum can cause unnecessary shrinkage and may compromise the adhesive bonds used in some printing processes.
When ironing, use a medium heat (setting 2) to remove creases. It is vital that you do not iron directly over any print or embroidery, as the direct heat can melt printed transfers or distort the polyester threads used in the embroidery.
Dry cleaning should be avoided, as the solvents used in the process can react negatively with the fabric blend and any applied customisation, potentially causing delamination of prints.
