Product Overview
The Tee Jays Full-zip knit represents a sophisticated evolution of the traditional professional jumper. Engineered from a refined blend of premium Italian merino wool and durable polyacrylic fibres, this garment is designed for the modern professional who requires a balance of thermal efficiency and long-term durability. The tailored fit ensures a sleek, contemporary silhouette that transitions seamlessly from office environments to site visits, while the fully fashioned construction provides a level of finish and structural integrity rarely found in standard workwear knitwear.
Key Features
Premium Italian Yarn: The 50/50 blend of merino wool and polyacrylic offers the natural breathability and softness of wool with the enhanced resilience of synthetic fibres, ensuring the garment retains its shape over time.
High-Performance SBS Zip: This full-zip model features an SBS zip that has been rigorously tested for reliability, ensuring smooth operation even with frequent daily use.
Fully Fashioned Design: By knitting each panel to the exact shape required, this technique reduces waste and creates a superior fit at the shoulders and armholes, improving comfort and mobility.
Ribbed Hem and Cuffs: The knitted ribbing at the extremities provides a secure fit, helping to trap warmth and prevent the garment from riding up during physical tasks.
Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified: This accreditation ensures the fabric has been tested for harmful substances, providing peace of mind for daily wear against the skin.
Design & Performance
This fine-knit jumper is designed for performance in professional settings. The inclusion of Italian merino wool allows for natural temperature regulation, keeping the wearer warm in cooler conditions while remaining breathable when moving between indoor and outdoor environments. The addition of polyacrylic fibres is a technical choice to increase the garment's resistance to pilling and abrasion, which is essential for workwear that undergoes regular use. The tailored fit is designed to be ergonomic, following the contours of the body without restricting the wearer's range of motion.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The fine-knit surface of the Tee Jays Full-zip knit makes it an excellent candidate for professional customisation. For a truly professional appearance that aligns with your brand identity, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team, operating since 1976, uses high-precision machinery to ensure logos and names are rendered with exceptional clarity and durability. Embroidery is particularly suited to the merino blend, providing a high-quality finish that withstands regular laundering.
Alternatively, for larger, more striking branding, high-definition film printing can be applied. This is ideal for bold designs or event-specific branding where visibility is the priority. Our in-house experts will ensure the customisation method chosen complements the fabric's properties and maintains the garment's professional aesthetic.
Use Cases
This jumper is an essential piece for management teams, corporate staff, and client-facing professionals. It serves as an excellent outer layer in temperate conditions or as a technical mid-layer beneath a heavier jacket during winter months. Its smart appearance makes it particularly suitable for the hospitality sector, retail management, and professional services where a formal yet functional look is required.

Practical Advice
The tailored fit of this garment is designed to sit closer to the body. If you intend to wear multiple layers beneath it, such as a heavy-weight collared shirt, you may wish to consider selecting a size up to ensure maximum comfort. For those looking for a sharp, modern appearance, the standard sizing provides a clean line that works perfectly over a polo shirt or lightweight base layer.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and technical performance of the merino wool blend, it is vital to follow the specific care instructions provided. Proper maintenance ensures that your custom branding remains vibrant and the fabric retains its soft handle.
We recommend a dedicated wool programme at 30°C using a specialist wool detergent. Standard domestic detergents can be too harsh for natural wool fibres, leading to a loss of elasticity and potential shrinkage. Washing with similar colours prevents dye transfer and keeps the garment looking professional.
Do not use bleach or tumble dry this garment. The high heat of a tumble dryer will cause the merino fibres to shrink and felt, permanently damaging the fit and texture of the jumper. Instead, dry the garment flat to ensure it maintains its original shape and dimensions. Do not soak the knitwear, as prolonged immersion can weaken the fibres and affect the consistency of the knit.
