Product Overview
The Russell Collection V-neck sleeveless knitted sweater is a refined addition to any professional wardrobe, designed to provide a sophisticated layering option without the bulk of full sleeves. This garment bridges the gap between formal and casual attire, making it an essential choice for those who require versatility throughout the working day. Constructed from a specialised CottonBlend fabric, it offers the natural breathability of cotton paired with the resilient warmth of acrylic, ensuring comfort across changing temperatures.
Key Features
- Shape-Retaining Elastane Trim: The addition of elastane to the cuffs and waistband ensures the sweater maintains its structure and tailored appearance, even after frequent wear and multiple wash cycles.
- Quick-Drying Fabric: The CottonBlend composition is engineered to dry rapidly, reducing downtime between washes and making it ideal for busy professionals who need their uniform ready at short notice.
- Contemporary Styling: With a modern silhouette and a classic V-neck, this sweater provides a sharp, updated look that complements both traditional collared shirts and more casual base layers.
- Extensive Size Range: Available from XXS to 4XL, this garment ensures a consistent and professional team appearance across your entire workforce.
Design & Performance
The technical superiority of this sweater lies in its 12-gauge fine knit construction. By blending 50% cotton with 50% acrylic, Russell Collection has created a medium-weight fabric that excels in both performance and tactile feel. The cotton component ensures the garment remains cool and lightweight against the skin, while the acrylic adds a layer of softness and essential warmth for cooler environments.
Furthermore, the acrylic fibres provide natural stain resistance, which is a significant advantage in active work environments where maintaining a clean appearance is paramount. The inclusion of elastane in the trim is a deliberate design choice to prevent the sagging often associated with lesser-quality knitwear, ensuring the garment looks as good at the end of the shift as it did at the start.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sleeveless sweater serves as an excellent canvas for corporate branding. We highly recommend embroidery for this specific knitwear item; the 12-gauge weave supports dense stitching beautifully, resulting in a refined and distinguished professional image for company logos or staff names.
For those requiring larger or more complex designs, high-quality printing is also a viable option. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting the art of garment customisation since 1976. Every piece is handled in-house to ensure that your branding is applied with the precision and care it deserves, reflecting the high standards of your business.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for customer-facing roles, management, or office-based teams where a shirt alone may feel under-dressed, but a full jacket is too restrictive. It is an ideal solution for hospitality staff, receptionists, and retail professionals who require a smart, layered look that allows for total freedom of movement.

Choosing MyWorkwear means partnering with a company that has nearly half a century of technical expertise. Since 1976, we have been providing UK businesses with reliable, high-quality workwear from our dedicated facility in Telford.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please refer to the comprehensive range from XXS (32/34") up to 4XL (48/50"). For a traditional, tailored look over a formal shirt, we suggest selecting your standard chest size. If you intend to wear this over multiple layers or prefer a more relaxed fit, the contemporary styling allows for comfortable movement throughout the workday.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of your knitwear, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove everyday dirt while protecting the integrity of the CottonBlend fibres and ensuring any custom branding remains secure and vibrant.
This item is suitable for tumble drying, which helps to maintain the softness of the acrylic blend. However, following the recommended temperature guidelines is essential to prevent any loss of shape in the elastane-trimmed cuffs and waistband. Avoid the use of bleach to ensure the colour remains consistent and the fabric stays resilient over time.
