Product Overview
The Tee Jays Urban hooded full-zip sweatshirt represents a sophisticated approach to modern workwear, blending a relaxed aesthetic with high-specification construction. This is not merely a standard hoodie; it is a meticulously engineered garment crafted from a sustainable blend of certified organic cotton and recycled polyester. The result is a substantial, heavyweight feel that provides exceptional comfort while maintaining a sharp, professional appearance for your team. The inclusion of a silicone treatment ensures a premium soft-touch finish that differentiates it from lower-quality alternatives.
Key Features
- Relaxed Fit: Designed to provide a comfortable, contemporary silhouette that allows for ease of movement throughout the working day.
- Brushed Interior: The inside of the fabric is brushed to create a soft, insulating layer that provides superior warmth in cooler environments.
- SBS Zip: Equipped with a high-quality SBS zip for smooth operation and long-term reliability.
- Elastane-Reinforced Ribbing: The cuffs and hem feature elastane, ensuring the garment retains its shape and prevents sagging after repeated wear.
- Double Pre-shrunk Fabric: This ensures that the sweatshirt maintains its original size and fit, even after multiple laundry cycles.
- Three-Thread Construction: A technical knitting method that provides a denser, more durable fabric surface, ideal for high-quality customisation.
Design & Performance
Performance is built into the very fibres of this sweatshirt. By using a three-thread fabric construction, Tee Jays has created a garment with a smooth exterior that is particularly well-suited to detailed decoration. The fabric is double-dyed, which achieves a deeper, more consistent colour that resists fading over time. Furthermore, the use of ringspun combed organic cotton ensures that the surface is free from the impurities found in cheaper carded yarns, resulting in a cleaner finish and enhanced durability.
The sustainability credentials of this garment are equally impressive. With certifications including Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and Amfori BSCI, you can be confident that your workwear meets rigorous ethical and environmental standards. The inclusion of recycled polyester not only reduces waste but also adds strength to the cotton fibres, extending the lifespan of the garment in demanding work environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is an ideal canvas for branding. For a traditional and highly professional finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team can expertly stitch your company logo or staff names directly onto the fabric, providing a durable and textured result that withstands heavy use. The high-density three-thread fabric is particularly good at supporting complex embroidery designs without puckering.
If your branding requires larger, more vibrant graphics, our printing services are an excellent alternative. The smooth, silicone-treated surface allows for crisp, clear transfers that make a bold statement. Whether you choose print or embroidery, all customisation is handled in-house by our expert team, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976.
Use Cases
The Urban hooded full-zip sweatshirt is versatile enough for a wide range of professional settings. It is particularly well-suited for customer-facing roles in the creative industries, retail, or events where a modern, approachable look is required. It also serves as an excellent layering piece for tradespeople who need a substantial, reliable outer layer that can be easily removed as temperatures change.

Practical Advice
This sweatshirt features a relaxed fit, making it ideal for layering over t-shirts or polo shirts. The size range extends from XS to 3XL, accommodating a broad variety of body types. When selecting your size, consider that the double pre-shrunk fabric means you don't need to 'size up' to account for future shrinkage. The integrated half-moon at the neck is a thoughtful design detail that simplifies the addition of internal neck branding if required.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your sweatshirt, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes dirt and oils without putting undue stress on the fabric fibres or the custom branding.
It is essential to wash this garment with similar colours to prevent any potential dye transfer, which can dull the vibrancy of the fabric. We strongly advise against the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the organic cotton fibres and cause significant discolouration.
Do not tumble dry this garment. High heat from a dryer can damage the recycled polyester components and may lead to distortion of the SBS zip or any applied print designs. Instead, allow the sweatshirt to air dry naturally.
If the garment is printed, do not iron directly over the decorated area. The heat from an iron can melt print transfers, causing permanent damage to both the design and the garment. If ironing is necessary, do so on a low setting on the reverse side.
