Product Overview
The SF Muscle Vest (SF236) is a meticulously engineered garment designed for those who require an unrestricted range of motion and a modern, tailored silhouette. Constructed with a muscle-cut racer-back and a contemporary long-line fit, this vest transitions seamlessly from high-intensity training environments to casual athleisure settings. The attention to detail is evident in the self-fabric binding at the neckline and armholes, providing a clean, professional finish that resists fraying and maintains its shape over time.
Key Features
- Muscle-cut racer-back: This specific cut exposes the shoulder blades, allowing for a complete range of motion during physical activity while highlighting the wearer's physique.
- Long-line fit: The extended length provides extra coverage and a modern aesthetic, ensuring the vest remains in place during movement.
- Self-fabric binding: By using the same material for the binding around the neckline and armholes, the garment achieves a consistent look and improved comfort against the skin.
- Twin needle straight hem: This robust stitching technique ensures the hem remains flat and durable, preventing unravelling even after frequent wear.
- Tear-out label: A practical inclusion that allows for easy rebranding or the removal of irritation for the wearer.
Design & Performance
The fabric composition is a thoughtful blend of 60% cotton and 40% polyester in a single jersey knit. This combination offers the natural breathability and soft hand-feel of cotton alongside the moisture-wicking and shape-retention properties of polyester. As a lightweight fabric, it is ideal for layering or as a standalone piece in warmer conditions. The Heather Grey variant utilises a blend of 85% cotton and 15% viscose to achieve its characteristic textured appearance while maintaining the garment's overall performance standards.
With accreditations including Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and being Peta Approved Vegan, you can be confident that this garment meets high ethical and safety standards. The construction is solid yet flexible, designed to withstand the rigours of an active lifestyle without compromising on style.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The SF Muscle Vest is a versatile canvas for custom branding. Our expert Telford-based team, with heritage dating back to 1976, can apply your business identity using both print and embroidery techniques. Because this is a lightweight jersey fabric, print is often the preferred choice for large, bold graphics on the chest or back, providing a vibrant and flexible finish that doesn't weigh the garment down.
For a more formal or long-lasting corporate identity, embroidery is an excellent option for smaller logos on the chest. Embroidery provides a three-dimensional, professional finish that suggests quality and longevity. Whether you are outfitting a fitness team or creating promotional merchandise, we ensure your branding is executed with technical precision.
Use Cases
This vest is specifically designed for the 'body and mind' customer, making it an ideal choice for gym staff, personal trainers, and yoga instructors. Its fashion-forward long-line cut also makes it suitable for festival staff, promotional events, or as part of a summer-themed retail collection. It is a reliable choice for any scenario where professional appearance must be balanced with physical comfort and mobility.

Practical Advice
The SF236 is designed with a muscle-fit in mind. If you prefer a more relaxed or traditional fit, we recommend consulting the size guide and perhaps opting for a size larger than your usual measurement. Given its lightweight nature, it serves as an excellent base layer under a zip-up hoodie or sweatshirt during cooler morning shifts, providing breathability once your core temperature rises.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of both the garment and your custom branding, it is essential to follow the recommended care instructions. Maintaining the integrity of the cotton-polyester blend will keep the vest looking professional for longer.
We recommend a domestic wash at 40°C on a synthetic cycle. This temperature is effective for removing perspiration while being gentle enough to prevent the breakdown of the fabric's fibres. Avoid the use of bleach, as this will strip the colour and weaken the material, leading to premature wear.
Do not tumble dry or dry clean this garment. High heat from a dryer can cause shrinkage and may damage any printed customisation. Instead, we suggest reshaping the vest while damp and allowing it to dry naturally, away from direct heat sources or harsh sunlight, which can fade the fabric. When ironing, use a medium temperature and always iron on the reverse to protect your logo and the fabric surface.
