Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, this is a heavyweight garment that offers significant insulation. The microfleece side provides a smooth, soft-touch finish that is resistant to common wear, while the sherpa lining mimics the heat-trapping properties of natural wool. Despite its substantial feel, the synthetic composition ensures the garment remains durable and maintains its loft after repeated use. The heavy fabric weight makes it particularly effective at blocking draughts and maintaining a consistent core temperature.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Please note that for this specific garment, decoration is not recommended. The high-pile nature of the sherpa lining and the plush, deep texture of the microfleece are designed specifically for maximum comfort and thermal efficiency. Standard embroidery or print processes may compromise the fabric's integrity or result in a finish that does not meet our usual professional standards. For branded alternatives that require logos or corporate identification, we recommend exploring our wide range of standard sweatshirts and hoodies.
Use Cases
This hoodie is an excellent choice for staff working in exceptionally cold or stationary environments, such as large warehouses or during outdoor events where branding is not a primary requirement. It also serves as a premium gifting option for employees, emphasising a commitment to their well-being during the winter months. Its unisex design and generous proportions make it a versatile asset for any workforce.
Why MyWorkwear
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been providing high-quality solutions from our base in Telford. With nearly five decades of expertise in the industry, we understand the technical requirements of specialised cold-weather apparel. While we are experts in customisation, we also recognise when a garment's specific fabric properties are best left unadorned to ensure the wearer receives the full benefit of its engineered design.
Practical Advice
With dimensions of 165 x 110cm, this one-size-fits-most garment is designed for a very loose, comfortable fit. It can be easily layered over existing workwear or uniforms when staff are taking breaks or working in stationary positions. Given its substantial volume, ensure it is stored in a dry area to maintain the insulating properties of the fleece.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and appearance of this heavyweight hoodie, we recommend washing deep or bright colours separately. This prevents colour bleed and ensures the sherpa lining remains clean and vibrant over time.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment. Chemical bleaching agents will damage the polyester fibres and degrade the soft texture of both the microfleece and sherpa layers, leading to a loss of insulation.
For drying, use a low temperature setting in the tumble dryer. Excessive heat can cause synthetic fibres to become brittle. If required, use a cool iron only, as high heat may melt or singe the fleece surface.
It is critical to keep this garment away from fire and naked flames. As a 100% polyester item, it is flammable and requires careful handling in any environment with open heat sources.
