Product Overview
The B&C Influence hoodie represents a modern evolution in unisex apparel, blending a contemporary streetwear aesthetic with the robustness required for professional use. This garment is constructed from a heavyweight fabric that provides a sturdy and substantial hand feel, ensuring it maintains its shape throughout the working day. Designed with a relaxed, oversized fit and a minimalist darted hood that omits drawcords, it offers a clean, urban profile that serves as a premium canvas for business branding, music merchandise, or retail collections.
Key Features
- Side-Seamed Construction: Provides a superior unisex fit and ensures the hoodie retains its tailored shape even after repeated laundering.
- Perfect Sweat Technology (PST): Engineered for durability and comfort, this technology provides a consistent surface for customisation.
- Low Shrinkage Fleece (LSF): Minimises the risk of the garment losing its size or fit after washing, protecting your investment in high-quality workwear.
- 100% Cotton Face: The outer surface is composed entirely of cotton, which offers an exceptionally smooth foundation for high-definition printing.
- Sustainable Composition: Incorporates recycled polyester and pre-shrunk ringspun cotton, meeting several environmental and ethical standards including Peta-Approved Vegan and Global Recycled Standard criteria.
Design & Performance
This hoodie is engineered for those who require both style and performance. The use of pre-shrunk ringspun cotton results in a luxurious hand feel while the dropped shoulder design enhances the relaxed, oversized silhouette. The 1x1 ribbing on the cuffs and bottom hem is of a high calibre, providing excellent recovery to prevent the garment from stretching out over time. Furthermore, the kangaroo pocket is thoughtfully crafted for comfortable hand placement and secure storage of essential items, making it as practical as it is stylish.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The B&C Influence hoodie is an ideal candidate for both print and embroidery, and our expert team in Telford has been perfecting these techniques since 1976. The 100% cotton face is specifically designed to handle intricate print designs, ensuring colours remain vibrant and details stay sharp. For a more sophisticated and enduring brand appearance, embroidery is highly recommended, as the heavyweight fabric provides the necessary stability to support dense stitch counts without puckering.
Use Cases
Given its modern cut and substantial weight, this hoodie is perfectly suited for the fashion and retail sectors, as well as for influencer and music merchandise. It is equally effective as premium workwear for creative agencies or academic groups looking for a more contemporary alternative to traditional sweatshirts. Its size-inclusive range makes it a versatile choice for diverse teams.

Practical Advice
This hoodie is designed with a modern, oversized fit. If you prefer a more traditional, closer-to-body fit, you may wish to consider selecting one size smaller than your usual measurement. The heavyweight nature of the fabric makes it an excellent outer layer during transitional seasons or a substantial mid-layer in colder environments.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and high-quality finish of this heavyweight hoodie, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at this temperature helps preserve the Low Shrinkage Fleece properties and ensures the cotton face remains smooth, protecting your custom branding from premature wear.
When drying, use a low heat setting on your tumble dryer. Excessive heat can degrade the recycled polyester components and lead to unwanted fabric tension. Similarly, if ironing is required, use a low heat setting to avoid scorching the natural cotton fibres or damaging any applied print or embroidery.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will compromise the vibrancy of the curated colour palette and weaken the fabric structure. Dry cleaning is also not recommended, as the chemical processes can be too harsh for the pre-shrunk ringspun cotton and recycled blend.
