Key Features

- Ribbed placket, cuff, and hem: These structural details ensure the garment retains its shape over time and provides a secure, comfortable fit at the wrists and waist.

- Fine 12 gauge knit: Provides a smooth, high-quality finish that is both breathable and warm without the bulk of heavier knitwear.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a well-engineered blend of 60% cotton and 40% acrylic, this cardigan is designed for both everyday comfort and long-term durability. The cotton provides a soft, natural feel against the skin, making it comfortable for all-day wear, while the acrylic component adds necessary resilience and excellent colour retention. The 12 gauge knit results in a lightweight yet substantial fabric that drapes elegantly, making it an ideal choice for indoor environments where temperature regulation is key.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of the Augusta cardigan makes it an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery. For a truly professional and enduring finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos or staff names; the fine knit supports detailed threadwork exceptionally well. If you require larger, more impactful designs for promotional purposes, our high-quality printing process ensures a clean and vibrant result. All customisation is performed in-house by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment branding since 1976.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for front-of-house staff, corporate office environments, and the hospitality sector. Its refined appearance makes it appropriate for roles where a high standard of presentation is non-negotiable, such as receptionists, estate agents, or management professionals.

Practical Advice
The Augusta cardigan is designed with layering in mind. For a sharp, professional finish, we suggest pairing it with a crisp poplin blouse. Because of the fine 12 gauge knit, it fits comfortably under a suit jacket or blazer if additional warmth is required. We recommend reviewing our size guide to ensure a consistent fit across your team.
Caring for your product
To maintain the professional appearance and structural integrity of this cardigan, it is essential to follow the machine-washing instructions. Regular washing at the recommended domestic settings will help prevent the buildup of oils and dust that can degrade the fibres over time.
Avoid the use of harsh bleaching agents, as these will break down the cotton-acrylic blend and cause the navy colour to fade prematurely. When drying, it is advisable to avoid high heat; laying the garment flat is the best way to prevent the weight of the moisture from stretching the knit, ensuring the cardigan remains the correct size and shape.
