Product Overview
The Fruit of the Loom Premium set-in sweatshirt is a well-engineered garment designed to meet the rigorous demands of the modern workplace. Constructed from a medium-weight 70/30 cotton and polyester blend, it offers a perfect balance of warmth and durability. The 100% cotton face is specifically included to provide a superior surface for custom branding, ensuring that your company identity is represented with precision and clarity.
Key Features
- 100% Cotton Face: This specific construction provides an exceptionally smooth surface, which is essential for achieving high-definition print and embroidery results without the fabric texture interfering.
- Cotton and Elastane Ribbing: The use of elastane in the neck, waist, and cuffs ensures these high-stress areas retain their shape and provide a snug, professional fit even after repeated wear.
- Brushed Fleece Inner: The interior fabric is brushed for a soft finish, providing significant insulation and comfort during long shifts in cooler conditions.
- Single Jersey Back Neck Tape: This internal finish covers the seam at the back of the neck, preventing skin irritation and improving the garment's overall structural longevity.
Design & Performance
This sweatshirt is built for resilience. The 70% cotton content ensures the fabric remains breathable and comfortable against the skin, while the 30% polyester provides the structural integrity needed to withstand the daily wear and tear of a physical job. The set-in sleeve design offers a structured silhouette that maintains a formal appearance throughout the day. Its substantial fabric weight makes it a versatile layer for year-round use, providing warmth without restricting movement.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we have been perfecting the art of garment customisation in our Telford facility since 1976. This sweatshirt is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery. The high-quality cotton face makes it particularly suitable for large, bold printed designs that require a flat surface for maximum adherence and longevity. Alternatively, for a more traditional and prestigious appearance, our in-house embroidery team can apply detailed logos that remain durable and vibrant even after extensive industrial laundering.
Use Cases
This is a versatile choice for a wide range of industries. It is particularly well-suited for staff uniforms in logistics, construction, and facilities management where a professional yet robust top layer is required. Because of its wide size range, from Small up to 3XL, it is a reliable and inclusive option for outfitting entire teams with a consistent look.

Practical Advice
This sweatshirt is designed with a standard fit and is ideal for layering. For those working in outdoor environments, it serves as an excellent mid-layer under a waterproof jacket without adding excessive bulk. We recommend reviewing the size guide to ensure the best fit for your team, as this model accommodates chest sizes from 35 inches to 52 inches.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of this sweatshirt, it is important to follow the recommended care routine. Regular machine washing at 40°C is sufficient to remove workplace dirt while preserving the life of the custom branding and the cotton-rich fabric fibers.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will weaken the polyester-cotton blend and cause the colours to fade prematurely, undermining your professional image. When drying, a low-temperature tumble dry setting is advised to prevent significant shrinkage, though air-drying is always preferable for long-term garment health.
If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting. High heat can damage the synthetic components of the ribbing and may negatively affect the adhesive bonds of any printed customisation. Do not dry clean this garment, as the chemical solvents used in the process can degrade both the fabric and the applied logos.
