Product Overview
The Under Armour UA Rival fleece crew is a sophisticated choice for those requiring a blend of athletic performance and professional presentation. Designed as a medium-weight layer, this sweatshirt provides a reliable barrier against the chill without the bulk of traditional heavy outerwear. It serves as an excellent foundation for a corporate uniform or a high-end team kit, offering a sleek silhouette that maintains its shape throughout the working day.
Key Features
The ultra-soft cotton-blend fleece features a brushed interior, providing exceptional thermal retention and a soft feel against the skin for all-day comfort.
Integrated ribbed cuffs, collar, and bottom hem ensure a secure fit that prevents heat loss and maintains the garment's professional profile during physical activity.
A classic crew neck design offers a timeless look that layers easily over polo shirts or under jackets, making it a versatile addition to any work wardrobe.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a balanced blend of 80% cotton and 20% polyester, this sweatshirt is engineered for both softness and resilience. The high cotton content provides the breathability essential for indoor environments, while the polyester adds the necessary structural integrity to withstand repeated laundering and daily wear. The brushed fleece lining is not merely for comfort; it creates a loft that traps air, providing an effective layer of insulation that remains breathable during physical tasks.
Customisation: Embroidery Only
This Under Armour sweatshirt is reserved exclusively for embroidery. The plush, textured surface of the Rival fleece is not suited for heat-applied prints, which can fail to adhere correctly to the pile or lose their finish over time. Embroidery, however, allows our Telford-based team to stitch your logo directly into the fabric. Our in-house embroidery experts, established since 1976, ensure that every stitch is precise, creating a three-dimensional, high-quality finish that will likely outlast the garment itself.
Use Cases
This garment is ideal for professionals in the sports and leisure industry, as well as business owners looking for a premium, comfortable uniform for their staff. Its athletic cut makes it suitable for active roles where freedom of movement is paramount, yet its clean design ensures it looks just as appropriate in a retail or office setting for a more relaxed, professional look.

Practical Advice
The UA Rival fleece crew is available in sizes Small through to 3XL, catering to a wide range of body types. We recommend checking the sizing guide carefully, as Under Armour typically offers a more tailored athletic fit. If you intend to wear this as a top layer over multiple garments, you may wish to consider choosing a larger size for a more relaxed feel.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of your embroidered sweatshirt, we recommend a cold machine wash with similar colours. Using cold water prevents the cotton-rich fibres from shrinking and ensures the embroidery thread maintains its tension and colour vibrancy over time.
Avoid the use of bleach or fabric softeners. Bleach will degrade the fabric and ruin the integrity of your custom branding, while softeners can coat the technical fibres, reducing the breathability and the soft "loft" of the fleece lining. Do not iron this garment, as high heat can damage the synthetic components of the fleece and the delicate embroidery stitches. Finally, do not dry clean; the chemicals involved are far too harsh for the delicate brushed interior and the longevity of the fabric.
