Product Overview
The Kustom Kit Klassic Hooded Zipped Jacket is a medium-weight staple designed for the rigours of everyday professional use. Constructed from a durable 65% polyester and 35% cotton brushed back jersey, this hooded jacket balances comfort with technical resilience. A standout feature is the Superwash 60 technology, which allows the garment to be laundered at higher temperatures, making it an excellent choice for environments where hygiene and cleanliness are paramount, such as the hospitality or healthcare sectors.
Key Features
- Superwash 60 Technology: Engineered to withstand repeated 60-degree washes, ensuring the garment remains hygienic and retains its shape and colour over time.
- Brushed Back Jersey: The internal fleece-like finish provides essential thermal insulation while remaining soft against the skin for all-day comfort.
- Full Front Zip with Metal Hardware: The brushed silver hardware offers a sophisticated aesthetic and a robust closure mechanism compared to plastic alternatives.
- Reinforced Construction: Double-stitched shoulders and flat-lock seaming around the armholes and pockets prevent fraying and structural failure under tension.
- Tear-out Neck Label: Provides the opportunity for easy rebranding or increased comfort for the wearer by removing potential irritation.
Design & Performance
This hooded jacket is engineered for a regular fit, providing enough room for layering without appearing bulky. The self-fabric lined hood and flat tape cord through metal eyelets offer a structured, professional appearance. Performance-wise, the 65/35 poly-cotton blend is strategically chosen; the polyester provides the necessary structural integrity and colour fastness, while the cotton ensures breathability and a natural feel. The double-layered cuffs and welt ensure the garment retains its elasticity at the openings, preventing the 'stretched-out' look common in lower-quality alternatives.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, tight knit of the jersey face makes this hooded jacket an ideal canvas for both print and embroidery. For a truly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for chest logos or staff names, as the fabric weight supports high-stitch counts without puckering. If your branding requires large, bold graphics on the back, our high-quality print processes will adhere flawlessly to the poly-cotton surface. All customisation is performed by our expert team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience since our founding in 1976.
Use Cases
Given its ability to withstand high-temperature washing, this hooded jacket is perfect for hospitality staff, delivery drivers, and tradespeople who require frequent laundering of their workwear. It serves as a versatile outer layer in spring or autumn and an effective thermal mid-layer during the winter months.

Practical Advice
This jacket is a regular fit, spanning from XS to 3XL. When ordering for a team, we recommend checking the size guide to ensure a consistent look across different body types. For those working in active roles, the zipped front allows for quick ventilation, making it more adaptable than a traditional pullover hoodie.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of this garment, it is essential to follow the specific care instructions. A domestic wash at 60°C is recommended to remove stubborn stains and bacteria, which is particularly useful for workwear exposed to demanding environments.
Bleaching agents must be avoided at all costs, as they will degrade the polyester fibres and cause the colour of your custom embroidery or print to fade prematurely. Similarly, dry cleaning is not recommended as the chemicals used can interfere with the fabric's soft brushed finish.
When drying, use a medium heat setting (two dots) in the tumble dryer to prevent excessive shrinkage. For a crisp finish, iron on a medium heat (two dots), ensuring you avoid direct contact with any printed or embroidered areas to prevent damage to the branding.
