Product Overview
The B312 Zipped Hoodie is a sophisticated yet practical addition to our range of casual workwear. Designed for those who require versatility throughout their working day, this hoodie provides a smart, uniform appearance without compromising on comfort. The full zip-through front is a key design element, allowing the wearer to transition seamlessly between different environments—be it moving from a cold site to a heated vehicle or adjusting to physical activity. The inclusion of a jersey-lined hood adds an extra layer of softness and insulation, ensuring the garment is as comfortable as it is functional.
Key Features
Full zip-through front: This allows for rapid layering and ventilation, making it an ideal choice for busy professionals who need to adapt to changing temperatures quickly.
Jersey-lined hood: Enhances wearer comfort by providing a soft, warm barrier against the elements, particularly useful during outdoor tasks.
Polyester and cotton blend: By combining these two fibres, the garment achieves the durability and colour fastness of polyester alongside the natural breathability of cotton.
Secure fit: Designed to maintain its shape even after heavy use, ensuring your team looks professional from the start of the shift to the end.
Design & Performance
This hoodie is crafted from a medium-weight fabric that offers a substantial feel without the restrictive bulk of heavier outerwear. The 65% polyester and 35% cotton composition is specifically chosen for its performance in a work environment; the polyester provides the necessary strength to withstand daily wear and tear, while the cotton ensures a comfortable micro-climate against the skin. The black colourway is both practical and professional, masking minor marks while providing a sharp backdrop for your company branding. The finish is smooth, facilitating ease of movement when worn under a heavier jacket or over a base layer.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
To ensure the highest standard of branding, this item is available for embroidery only. The medium-weight knit of the polyester-cotton blend provides the perfect stable surface for high-quality stitching, which simply cannot be matched by print methods on this type of fabric. Our expert in-house embroidery team, a part of our business since 1976, uses state-of-the-art machinery to translate your logo into a durable, textured finish. Embroidery not only looks more premium but is also far better suited to the frequent laundering that workwear requires, ensuring your logo remains sharp and professional for the life of the garment.
Use Cases
This zipped hoodie is an excellent choice for tradespeople, site supervisors, and logistics staff who need a flexible mid-layer. Its smart-casual aesthetic also makes it suitable for customer-facing roles in retail or delivery services where a traditional jumper might feel too formal, yet a standard hoodie appears too relaxed. It is a versatile staple for any modern workforce.

Practical Advice
This hoodie is designed with a regular fit, providing enough room for a t-shirt or polo shirt underneath. If you are between sizes or intend to use this as a primary outer layer over multiple garments, you may wish to consider the larger size for a more relaxed fit. The zip-through design is particularly useful for those who wear safety harnesses or tool belts, as it can be easily adjusted without removing other equipment.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your hoodie, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum of 40°C using a mild process. Washing at higher temperatures can stress the polyester fibres and lead to premature fading of the deep black colour.
Do not use bleach, as this will weaken the fabric structure and cause irreparable damage to the embroidered logo. We advise that you do not tumble dry this garment; the high heat can cause shrinkage and affect the tension of the embroidery threads. Instead, line dry the hoodie to allow it to return to its natural shape.
If ironing is required, please use a maximum soleplate temperature of 150°C. Exceeding this temperature risks melting the synthetic components of the fabric. Finally, do not dry clean, as the process is unnecessary for this blend and the chemicals involved may degrade the embroidery over time.
