Design & Performance
Engineering a garment of this substance requires a careful balance of fibres. The majority composition of ringspun cotton provides a soft, luxurious hand-feel, while the inclusion of polyester—partially recycled—adds essential structural integrity and shrink resistance. The fabric’s heavyweight nature provides a sense of security and quality that is immediately apparent upon handling. Furthermore, the tear-away label is a practical inclusion for businesses looking to rebrand the neck area for a completely bespoke finish.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is a versatile choice for customisation. The 100% cotton face is particularly advantageous for printing, as it allows for crisp detail and vibrant colour reproduction, whether you are opting for large back graphics or bold chest designs. For a more traditional and elevated professional appearance, embroidery is highly recommended. Our in-house team in Telford, which has been refining its craft since 1976, uses precision machinery to ensure that your company logo or staff names are rendered with exceptional durability and clarity.
Use Cases
Given its modern silhouette and premium feel, this sweatshirt is particularly well-suited for creative agencies, modern retail environments, or as high-quality event merchandise. It also serves as an excellent layering piece for tradespeople working in colder conditions who prefer a more relaxed fit than standard issue workwear. Its sustainable credentials also make it a primary choice for eco-conscious organisations.

Practical Advice
As this is an oversized garment, we recommend selecting your usual size for the intended boxy look. If you prefer a more tailored or standard fit, you may wish to consider ordering one size smaller than your usual measurement. The heavy fabric makes it an ideal outer layer for spring and autumn, or a core insulating layer during winter months.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and the finish of your custom branding, we recommend washing this sweatshirt at 30°C or below. Higher temperatures can degrade the cotton fibres and potentially damage the adhesive bonds in printed designs.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will lead to significant colour fading and will weaken the fabric over time. For drying, a low-heat tumble dry setting is advised; however, air drying is the superior method to prevent any potential shrinkage and to keep the oversized silhouette intact.
When ironing, use a low heat setting and always iron the garment inside out. Never apply a hot iron directly onto printed or embroidered areas, as this will cause permanent damage to the customisation. Finally, this garment should not be dry cleaned, as the chemicals used in the process can be too harsh for the specialist cotton-rich blend.
