Product Overview
The SOL'S Unisex Calipso Eco-Friendly Full Zip Hoodie is a sophisticated choice for businesses seeking to align their professional image with sustainable practices. This heavyweight garment is meticulously constructed from a blend of 85% organic combed cotton and 15% recycled polyester, providing a substantial feel that does not compromise on environmental responsibility. The three-yarn construction and unbrushed inner create a stable, high-quality fabric that offers a refined silhouette, ensuring your team remains comfortable and looks professional throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Organic Combed Cotton: The use of combed cotton ensures a smoother and stronger yarn, which results in a softer feel against the skin and a superior surface for detailed customisation.
- Recycled Polyester: By incorporating recycled materials, this hoodie helps reduce environmental impact while enhancing the garment's durability and shape retention.
- Three-Yarn Construction: This advanced knitting technique provides a denser fabric that stands up to the demands of a busy work environment without losing its structural integrity.
- Full-Length Metal Zip: A robust metal zip offers a more durable and premium alternative to plastic, ensuring the garment remains functional even after extensive use.
- Jersey Lined Hood and Taped Neck: These design details provide additional comfort and prevent irritation, which is essential for long shifts.
- Ribbed Cuffs and Hem: The 2x2 ribbing ensures a snug, secure fit that helps retain warmth and maintains the hoodie's shape over time.
Design & Performance
Designed with a focus on both aesthetics and endurance, the Calipso Hoodie features a drop shoulder style for a contemporary, relaxed fit that allows for ease of movement. The cotton-faced fabric is specifically engineered to provide a smooth, flat surface, which is crucial for achieving high-quality results during the customisation process. Despite its heavyweight nature, the unbrushed inner prevents the garment from feeling overly bulky, making it a versatile piece that performs well in both indoor and outdoor settings.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This hoodie is an exceptional candidate for both print and embroidery, allowing you to tailor the finish to your specific brand requirements. The smooth cotton face is particularly advantageous for printing, as it allows for sharp, vibrant designs that truly stand out. For those seeking a more traditional and prestigious look, embroidery is highly recommended for company logos, providing a textured and long-lasting finish that conveys a sense of established professionalism.

Practical Advice
This heavyweight hoodie is a superb choice for layering. For the best professional appearance, we recommend pairing it with a high-quality polo shirt or t-shirt. Due to the drop shoulder design, if you prefer a more fitted look, you may wish to review our sizing guides carefully, as the cut is designed for modern comfort and freedom of movement.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and appearance of your eco-friendly hoodie requires consistent care to ensure the organic fibres and recycled materials remain in peak condition. Proper maintenance not only extends the life of the garment but also ensures your custom branding remains sharp.
When washing, we recommend adhering strictly to the garment's internal instructions. Avoiding the use of bleach is essential, as harsh chemicals can degrade the organic cotton fibres and cause premature fading of both the fabric and your embroidered or printed logos.
Drying the garment naturally is always the preferred method. Exposure to high heat in a tumble dryer can cause the cotton to shrink and may compromise the integrity of printed designs. If ironing is necessary, ensure you do not iron directly over any decorated areas, as direct heat can distort or damage the print and embroidery threads.
