Product Overview
The SOL'S Stone Zip Hooded Sweatshirt is a well-engineered garment designed to meet the demands of a modern working environment. This mid-weight sweatshirt offers a balance of warmth and flexibility, making it an essential layer for professionals who require a reliable uniform that performs throughout the day. With its full-length zip and brushed back fleece lining, it provides a versatile solution for varying temperatures and physical tasks.
Key Features
- Brushed Back Fleece: The interior fabric is treated to create a soft, nap-like finish, which significantly enhances thermal insulation by trapping air close to the body.
- Full-Length Zip: Allows for rapid temperature regulation and makes the garment easy to remove or layer over other uniform items without disrupting headwear or safety equipment.
- Drop Shoulder Design: This construction provides a more relaxed fit across the upper body, allowing for a greater range of movement when reaching or lifting.
- Front Pouch Pockets: Provides convenient storage for small hand tools or essential items, while also offering a place to keep hands warm during colder shifts.
- Ribbed Cuffs and Hem: These elasticated elements ensure the sweatshirt retains its shape over time and prevents draughts from entering the sleeves or waist.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend, this sweatshirt is built for longevity. The inclusion of polyester provides essential structural integrity, ensuring the garment resists shrinking and stretching after repeated laundering. The cotton component ensures the fabric remains breathable and comfortable against the skin during periods of high activity.
The fabric is classified as a standard weight, providing enough substance to offer protection and warmth without becoming cumbersome. The hooded design, complete with a self-fabric drawcord, offers additional protection against the elements when working outdoors or in draughty warehouse environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The SOL'S Stone is an excellent canvas for business branding. For those seeking a professional appearance, embroidery is highly recommended for company logos on the chest or sleeve. This method provides a durable, high-quality finish that withstands the rigours of industrial washing.
If your branding requires large, high-impact graphics on the back, our printing services are an ideal choice. Our in-house team in Telford, established in 1976, oversees the entire process to ensure your customisation meets our rigorous standards for clarity and colour fastness.
Use Cases
This sweatshirt is a versatile choice for a variety of sectors including logistics, construction, and general maintenance. It is equally suited for front-of-house staff in more casual environments who require a cohesive, branded uniform that maintains a professional look while offering everyday comfort.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider what you intend to wear beneath the sweatshirt. If you plan to layer it over a heavy work shirt or thermal base, you may find a slightly more generous fit preferable. The drop shoulder design already allows for some extra room, but checking our size guides against your measurements is always a sensible approach.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your sweatshirt, it is vital to follow the care instructions found on the internal label. Proper maintenance ensures the fabric remains soft and the customisation stays vibrant over time.
We recommend fastening the full-length zip before washing. This prevents the metal or plastic teeth from snagging on the fleece or damaging any embroidery or print on this or other garments in the load.
Avoid using harsh bleaching agents which can break down the polyester fibres and cause the cotton to lose its colour. Consistent adherence to the recommended washing temperature will prevent unnecessary shrinkage and ensure your uniform serves you well for many months to come.
