Product Overview
The Larkwood Kids Sustainable Hoodie represents a modern approach to children’s apparel, prioritising both environmental responsibility and daily comfort. Designed for the youngest members of a club, school, or team, this hoodie provides a soft and reliable layer that withstands the activity of the playground. Its construction from recycled materials makes it an excellent choice for businesses and organisations looking to align their branding with sustainable values.
Key Features
- Sustainable Fabric Composition: By using a blend of regenerated cotton and recycled polyester, this garment reduces waste while maintaining a high-quality feel.
- Self-Fabric Ribbing: The waistband and cuffs are finished with self-fabric knitted rib, ensuring a secure fit that retains heat without being restrictive.
- Tag-Free Design: The absence of a traditional neck label prevents irritation for children with sensitive skin and simplifies the process for those looking to add their own internal branding.
- Open Placket Detail: The centre front features an open placket, providing a clean and contemporary aesthetic compared to standard hoodie designs.
Design & Performance
This hoodie is crafted from a medium-weight fabric that strikes the perfect balance between warmth and breathability. The interior features a brushed back fleece, which is engineered to provide a cosy, soft-touch sensation against the skin—an essential factor for children's clothing. The 60% regenerated cotton and 40% recycled polyester blend ensures that the garment is durable enough to handle frequent movement and regular laundering without losing its shape.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of this sustainable fabric is highly receptive to both print and embroidery. For a professional and long-lasting finish, embroidery is the ideal choice for school logos or names, offering a three-dimensional texture that remains intact wash after wash. If your design is large or particularly bold, our high-quality printing process ensures the colours remain vibrant and the details sharp.
At MyWorkwear, we have been perfecting the art of garment customisation since 1976. Our expert team in Telford manages the entire process in-house, ensuring that every embroidered logo and printed design meets our exacting standards for precision and durability.
Use Cases
This hoodie is versatile enough for nursery uniforms, junior sports teams, and promotional merchandise for eco-conscious brands. It is also a popular choice for personalised gifting or as part of a coordinated school trip outfit, where a uniform and professional appearance is required for even the smallest participants.

Practical Advice
The sizing range for this hoodie is comprehensive, catering to infants from 0/6 months up to children aged 5/6 years. Given its medium-weight fleece construction, it serves as an excellent layering piece over a t-shirt during the autumn or as an insulating mid-layer under a waterproof jacket in winter. We recommend reviewing the size guide to ensure the best fit for growing children.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity of the recycled fibres and the quality of your custom branding, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C on a synthetic cycle. Using higher temperatures can lead to premature wear of the fabric and may affect the longevity of any printed elements.
Do not use bleach, as this will compromise the fabric's colour and the strength of the fibres. We also advise against tumble drying; instead, allow the hoodie to air dry naturally to prevent shrinkage and maintain the softness of the brushed fleece interior.
When ironing, use a low heat setting and ensure you iron on the reverse of the garment. This prevents direct heat from damaging any embroidery or print. Finally, always wash dark colours separately to prevent dye transfer and keep the garment looking professional for longer.
