Product Overview
The B&C KING Hooded sweatshirt is a meticulously engineered garment designed for those who require a professional appearance without compromising on comfort. Established as a premium choice in the B&C Collection, this hooded sweatshirt offers a refined masculine silhouette through its side-seamed construction, ensuring it sits correctly on the frame rather than hanging loosely. It is a substantial, medium-weight layer that balances luxury with the ruggedness required for daily professional use.
Key Features
- Pre-shrunk ring-spun combed cotton: The high cotton content provides an exceptionally soft hand-feel and ensures the garment maintains its size and shape after washing.
- Single Jersey lined hood: This additional lining provides extra durability to the hood structure and ensures a clean, high-quality finish both inside and out.
- Flat laced drawstrings with metal tips: These luxury accents prevent the fraying common with plastic ends and provide a secure, adjustable fit for the hood.
- Single Jersey halfmoon back: A premium internal detail that strengthens the neck area and provides a smooth surface for internal branding or neck labels.
- PST Technology: This specialized construction creates a smooth, 100% cotton face, making it the ideal canvas for high-definition customisation.
Design & Performance
The performance of this sweatshirt is rooted in its fabric composition, consisting of 80% combed cotton and 20% recycled polyester. By using ring-spun cotton that has been combed to remove impurities, the fabric achieves a smoothness that is rare in standard workwear. This results in a medium-weight garment that is breathable yet insulating. The inclusion of recycled polyester adds essential tensile strength and crease resistance, ensuring the sweatshirt remains smart throughout a demanding workday.
Durability is further enhanced by the qualitative neck tape and side-seamed style. Unlike tubular-constructed garments that can twist over time, the side seams on the B&C KING ensure the sweatshirt maintains its structural integrity, providing a consistent fit regardless of how many times it is worn or laundered.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is specifically designed with customisation in mind. The 100% combed cotton-faced fabric, enhanced by B&C’s PST technology, provides a superior surface for precision printing. Whether you require large back prints or detailed chest designs, the smooth surface ensures vibrant colour reproduction and sharp edges.
For those seeking a more traditional and prestigious finish, the medium-weight fabric is perfectly suited for embroidery. Our Telford-based team can apply high-stitch-count logos and names that sit firmly on the fabric without pulling or puckering. Having branded workwear produced by our in-house experts, a service we have refined since 1976, ensures your team projects a unified and professional image.
Use Cases
The B&C KING is versatile enough for a variety of professional environments. It is an excellent choice for corporate uniforms where a modern, casual look is preferred, or for site managers who need a warm, smart layer. It is equally popular for promotional events or as high-quality merchandise for client-facing staff who need to stay comfortable while representing their brand.

Practical Advice
The B&C KING is designed with a masculine silhouette. For those who prefer a more relaxed or 'oversized' fit for layering over heavy work shirts, we recommend considering one size larger than your usual measurement. The size range from S to 3XL ensures a consistent look across a diverse workforce.
Caring for your product
To maintain the premium feel and technical performance of this sweatshirt, it is vital to follow the specific care instructions provided. Proper maintenance ensures the fabric remains soft and the customisation remains intact for the life of the garment.
We recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at this lower temperature protects the pre-shrunk cotton fibres and ensures that any printed or embroidered logos do not suffer from heat-related degradation. Bleaching must be avoided at all costs, as harsh chemicals will weaken the fabric's structural integrity and cause significant discolouration to both the garment and your branding.
This sweatshirt should not be placed in a tumble dryer. Air drying is the safest method to prevent shrinkage and maintain the shape of the side seams. When ironing, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with any printed areas to prevent the design from lifting or melting. Finally, dry cleaning is not recommended, as the industrial solvents used can damage the recycled polyester fibres and the PST surface technology.
