Design & Performance
Constructed from a blend of 60% combed cotton and 40% polyester, this sweatshirt is engineered for both comfort and durability. The combed cotton provides a soft, breathable natural feel, while the polyester adds essential strength and resistance to creasing. The fabric has been double pre-shrunk, a critical process that minimises further shrinkage and ensures the garment remains true to size throughout its lifespan. The addition of a silicone treatment not only enhances the texture but also provides a subtle sheen that elevates the overall appearance of the garment, making it a well-engineered choice for demanding environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This substantial sweatshirt is an ideal canvas for customisation. For companies seeking a polished professional appearance, our in-house embroidery service is highly recommended. The density of the fabric supports intricate needlework, making it perfect for displaying company logos or individual staff names with precision. For larger, more vibrant branding, such as event graphics or bold rear-panel logos, our printing processes offer excellent clarity and colour reproduction. Our expert team in Telford, established in 1976, oversees the entire process to ensure your branding meets our rigorous standards.
Use Cases
The versatile design of the TJ066 makes it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is an excellent choice for corporate staff uniforms where a smart-casual aesthetic is required. Its athletic styling also makes it a popular choice for sports clubs, fitness professionals, and outdoor leisure sectors. Because it provides a substantial layer of warmth, it is equally effective for retail staff working in temperature-variable environments or tradespeople requiring a smart layer for client-facing meetings.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please refer to our comprehensive size guide, as this garment is designed with a modern, athletic fit. For those who prefer a more relaxed feel or intend to layer it over thicker shirts, we recommend considering the upper end of your chest measurement range. The full-zip design makes it a versatile layering piece that can be easily adjusted as temperatures change throughout the working day.
Caring for your product
To ensure your sweatshirt remains in peak condition, it is vital to follow the care instructions precisely. Maintaining the garment correctly will extend its lifespan and keep your branding looking sharp.
We recommend a machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Washing at this temperature effectively removes dirt without compromising the structure of the cotton-polyester blend. Always use non-chlorine detergents and avoid bleach, as these harsh chemicals can degrade the fabric fibres and lead to premature fading or damage to the silicone finish.
When drying, use a low tumble dry setting. High heat can cause the fabric to contract and may damage the elasticity of the hem and cuffs. If the garment has been printed, do not iron directly over the design. The heat from the iron can melt or distort the print, causing permanent damage to your custom branding.
