Product Overview
The B&C ID.222 crew sweatshirt is a masterfully engineered unisex essential, designed to balance modern aesthetics with the rigours of daily workwear. This medium-weight sweatshirt is constructed with side seams to ensure a consistent, structured fit that maintains its silhouette throughout the working day. As part of a conscious approach to manufacturing, it incorporates recycled polyester alongside pre-shrunk ringspun cotton, offering a garment that is as durable as it is environmentally responsible. Whether you are outfitting a large team or looking for a reliable promotional garment, the ID.222 provides a stable and professional canvas for your company branding.
Key Features
- True Unisex Style with Side Seams: Unlike tubular garments, the side-seam construction ensures the sweatshirt fits the body naturally and prevents the fabric from twisting after multiple washes.
- Set-in Sleeves with Dropped Shoulder: This design choice enhances mobility, allowing the wearer to move freely without the garment riding up or feeling restrictive across the back.
- 1x1 Rib with Elastane: The cuffs and bottom hem feature elastane integration, which provides excellent recovery and prevents the ribbed areas from sagging or losing their shape over time.
- No Label Solution: The absence of a traditional neck label allows for easy rebranding, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to create their own bespoke uniform line.
- Sustainability Focused: By utilizing recycled polyester, this garment helps reduce environmental impact while maintaining the strength and longevity required for active use.
Design & Performance
The performance of the B&C ID.222 stems from its high-quality fabric composition. The use of pre-shrunk ringspun cotton ensures a remarkably soft hand feel and minimizes the risk of shrinkage, so the fit remains true even after repeated laundering. The medium-weight fabric provides sufficient warmth for indoor environments or as a layering piece outdoors without being overly bulky. The modern relaxed fit is tailored to accommodate all body types comfortably, ensuring your entire workforce looks uniform and feels at ease throughout their shift.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt has been specifically designed with customisation in mind. The smooth surface of the ringspun cotton offers a superior foundation for screen printing or heat transfer, allowing for crisp, vibrant details that stand out. For those seeking a more traditional and prestigious finish, the stable medium-weight fabric is an ideal host for embroidery. Our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting this craft since 1976, recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names to achieve a superior, long-lasting finish.
Use Cases
The ID.222 is a versatile workhorse suitable for a wide array of sectors. Its clean design and extensive colour range make it a popular choice for the education sector, event staff, and promotional campaigns. It is also well-suited for high-volume corporate projects where consistency across a large team is paramount. The inclusive sizing ensures that every member of the team, from XS to 5XL, is provided with a professional appearance.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, we recommend referring to our 'To Fit' measurements. This sweatshirt offers a relaxed fit, making it ideal for layering over a polo shirt or base layer in colder weather. For the most professional appearance, we suggest coordinating the sweatshirt colour with your brand's primary palette, as the ID.222 is available in a vast array of vibrant tones designed to resist fading.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your sweatshirt, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at this temperature preserves the integrity of the cotton fibres and ensures that your custom print or embroidery remains vibrant and intact for as long as possible.
When drying, use a low heat setting on your tumble dryer. Excessive heat can damage the recycled polyester fibres and cause the garment to lose its softness. Similarly, if ironing is required, use a low heat setting and avoid ironing directly over any printed or embroidered areas to prevent damage to the customisation.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as harsh chemicals will strip the dye and weaken the fabric structure. We also advise against dry cleaning, as the aggressive solvents used in the process can negatively affect both the fabric blend and your bespoke branding.
