Product Overview
The Kite Sweatshirt is a core component of our sweatshirts and hoodies range, designed specifically for those who require a reliable and professional-looking layer for their daily tasks. This Ash-coloured version provides a neutral, sophisticated aesthetic that serves as an excellent backdrop for company logos. In a professional environment, maintaining a consistent team appearance is vital, and the Kite range is built to provide that uniformity across various sizes, including this extra-small option.
Key Features
- Classic Crew Neck Design: The traditional neckline provides a professional look that fits neatly over a collared shirt or works effectively as a standalone piece.
- Ribbed Cuffs and Hem: These integrated features ensure the sweatshirt retains its shape and stays in place during physical activity, preventing drafts and maintaining a tidy silhouette.
- Neutral Ash Finish: The subtle grey tone is highly resistant to showing minor dust and debris, making it ideal for environments ranging from light logistics to retail.
- Tailored for a Precise Fit: Available in size extra-small, this garment ensures that every member of the team can benefit from a professional and safe fit, avoiding the hazards of loose fabric.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a medium-weight fabric, the Kite Sweatshirt offers the necessary warmth for indoor environments or as a layering piece for outdoor work. The fabric has been selected for its soft-touch interior, which ensures all-day comfort for the wearer, reducing irritation during long shifts. Despite its soft feel, the outer face of the fabric is robust enough to withstand the rigours of frequent wear and industrial laundry cycles.
The garment's performance is further enhanced by its construction; reinforced seams are used throughout to prevent fraying or split stitches, ensuring the sweatshirt remains a durable part of your workwear rotation for an extended period.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is a versatile choice for customisation, accommodating both print and embroidery techniques with ease. For businesses seeking a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery for chest-positioned logos or staff names. This creates a tactile, premium appearance that withstands heavy use and repeated washing.
If your branding requires a larger, more vibrant display—such as a bold company name across the back—our printing services are an ideal solution. At MyWorkwear, all customisation is managed by our expert in-house team based in Telford. We have been perfecting our craft since 1976, ensuring that every garment leaving our facility meets our rigorous standards for quality and clarity.
Use Cases
The Kite Sweatshirt is a versatile garment suitable for a wide array of sectors. It is particularly popular among warehouse and logistics staff who require comfortable, non-restrictive clothing. It is also an excellent choice for tradespeople working in domestic environments, where a tidy and professional appearance is key to building trust with clients. Retail and hospitality teams also find the neutral Ash colourway effective for maintaining a smart yet approachable uniform.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, particularly in an extra-small, it is important to consider what will be worn underneath. For those who prefer a more relaxed fit or intend to layer heavily with thermal base layers, you may wish to review our sizing guide to ensure maximum comfort. The Ash colour is particularly easy to pair with navy, black, or grey work trousers, providing a cohesive look across your entire workforce.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the professional appearance of your workwear is essential for the longevity of both the garment and the customisation. We recommend a regular domestic wash to remove dirt and oils that can break down fabric fibres over time. Following the manufacturer's care label is the best way to ensure the sweatshirt retains its shape and the Ash colour remains vibrant.
Avoid the use of harsh bleaching agents, as these can degrade the integrity of the fabric and cause discolouration, particularly around embroidered logos. When drying, it is best to avoid high heat settings; air drying or a low-temperature tumble dry will help prevent shrinkage and keep the sweatshirt looking newer for longer. If ironing is required to maintain a crisp look, please iron on the reverse of any printed areas to protect the design.
