- Organic and Recycled Materials: Certified organic cotton and recycled polyester ensure your uniform choices support sustainable practices without sacrificing quality.
Design & Performance
The design of the Urban sweatshirt focuses on longevity and a refined finish. By using long-fibre ringspun cotton, the fabric face is exceptionally smooth, which is not only pleasant to the touch but also provides an ideal surface for branding. The double-dying process ensures that the garment stays looking new for longer, resisting the fading often seen in lesser-quality workwear.
The performance is further bolstered by the brushed interior, which traps air to provide insulation without adding excessive bulk. Whether worn as a standalone outer layer or under a jacket, this heavyweight garment remains breathable and comfortable throughout long shifts.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery, handled by our expert in-house team in Telford. For a traditional and highly durable finish, we recommend embroidery. It is particularly effective for company logos or staff names, providing a texture and depth that looks professional and lasts the lifetime of the garment.
If your branding involves large, bold graphics or intricate colour gradients, our high-quality printing service is the ideal choice. The smooth, silicone-treated surface of the Urban sweatshirt ensures that prints adhere effectively and remain sharp. Additionally, the interior half-moon detail at the neck is designed for those looking to add personalised internal branding, making this an excellent choice for bespoke corporate ranges.
Use Cases
The Tee Jays Urban sweatshirt is versatile enough for a wide range of applications. It is particularly well-suited for site managers, delivery professionals, and retail teams who require a uniform that is both comfortable and presentable. Its clean lines and relaxed fit also make it a popular choice for corporate events or as part of a high-quality staff merchandise range.

Practical Advice
Due to the relaxed fit of this sweatshirt, it is perfect for layering over a polo shirt or t-shirt. We recommend checking the size guide to ensure you achieve the desired silhouette, as the generous cut provides more room than a standard slim-fit alternative. The tagless design also prevents neck irritation, which is a welcome feature for those wearing the garment for extended periods.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your sweatshirt, we recommend a machine wash at 60°C. This temperature is effective for removing dirt and oils while ensuring the garment remains hygienic.
Always wash the sweatshirt with similar colours to prevent any potential dye transfer, which can dull the appearance of the fabric over time. Do not use bleach, as this will weaken the organic cotton fibres and cause significant damage to the colour and any custom branding.
We advise against tumble drying. Allowing the garment to air dry naturally will help preserve the shape and prevent the recycled polyester from becoming brittle or shrinking. If your sweatshirt has been printed, do not iron directly over the design, as the high heat will damage the print medium and ruin the finish.
