Product Overview
The Kustom Kit Superwash 60 hoodie is a meticulously engineered garment designed to withstand the rigorous demands of a professional working environment. Formulated with a focus on longevity and hygiene, this hoodie is a cornerstone of our heavyweight collection, offering a substantial feel that provides both warmth and structural integrity. Its primary advantage lies in the Superwash 60 fabric technology, which allows the garment to be laundered at high temperatures without compromising its shape or the vibrancy of its colour. This makes it an ideal choice for sectors where cleanliness and a consistently professional appearance are non-negotiable.
Key Features
The cordless, raised hood design eliminates the risk of drawstrings catching in machinery or equipment, significantly enhancing on-site safety for the wearer.
Constructed with bar-tacked kangaroo pocket openings to provide additional reinforcement at stress points, ensuring the pocket remains secure even when used for carrying essential tools or mobile devices.
Features double-layered, full-needle cuffs and a welt, which maintain their elasticity and shape over time, preventing the sagging often associated with lesser-quality knitwear.
Double-edged, edge-stitched armholes and taped shoulder seams provide superior structural strength, preventing the garment from distorting during physical activity.
A tear-out back neck label allows for easy rebranding, making it a perfect canvas for businesses looking to create a bespoke uniform range.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a robust blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this hoodie strikes the perfect balance between the durability of synthetic fibres and the breathability of natural cotton. The fabric is substantial and dense, categorised within our heavyweight range to provide a protective layer in cooler conditions. The interior features a self-coloured jersey lining in the hood and matching back neck binding, which adds a layer of comfort against the skin and a clean, high-quality finish to the interior construction. The retail-inspired regular fit ensures a modern silhouette that remains functional for active tradespeople.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The high-density weave of the Superwash 60 fabric provides an exceptionally stable surface for customisation. For a traditional and highly professional finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, uses precision machinery to ensure your logo is rendered with clarity and depth. For larger, more vibrant graphics—perhaps a bold company name across the back—screen printing or heat transfer techniques are highly effective. Both methods benefit from the garment's ability to withstand high-temperature washes, ensuring your branding remains intact through countless laundry cycles.
Use Cases
Given its safety-conscious cordless design and heavyweight construction, this hoodie is perfectly suited for construction sites, warehouse operations, and logistics. It is equally appropriate for staff in the hospitality and food service industries who require workwear that can be washed at 60°C to meet hygiene standards while maintaining a smart, unified appearance for customer-facing roles.

Practical Advice
This hoodie is designed with a regular fit, accommodating a base layer or polo shirt underneath comfortably. The cordless hood is particularly beneficial for those working in environments with strict health and safety protocols regarding loose clothing. If you are between sizes, we recommend referring to our size guide to ensure the double-layered cuffs provide the correct level of seal against the wrist.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and colour fastness of this garment, we recommend a machine wash at 60°C. Washing at this temperature ensures the removal of stubborn stains and bacteria, which is essential for maintaining professional hygiene standards.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemical oxidants will degrade the polyester-cotton fibres and lead to premature fading of the fabric and any custom branding. A low-temperature iron may be used if required, but please ensure you iron on the reverse of any printed areas to prevent damage to the transfer.
Tumble drying is possible on a low setting; however, excessive heat can cause unnecessary wear on the reinforced seams. Do not dry clean this garment, as the chemical solvents used in the process can interfere with the Superwash treatment and the adhesive agents used in printed logos.
