Product Overview
The Uneek UC506 Children's Classic Full Zip Hooded Sweatshirt is a robust and dependable garment designed specifically for the demands of youth activities and school environments. Constructed from a high-quality blend of cotton and polyester, this sweatshirt offers a balance between soft comfort and structural integrity. The inclusion of a full-length self-coloured zip adds versatility to the traditional hoodie design, allowing for easy ventilation and layering throughout the school day or during weekend clubs.
Key Features
- Reactive dyed fabric ensures that the colour remains vibrant and resistant to fading, even after the multiple laundry cycles typical of children's clothing.
- The taped neck provides additional comfort across the shoulders and prevents the garment from stretching out of shape during wear.
- Twin needle stitching is used throughout the construction to provide reinforced seams that can withstand the rigours of active play.
- Lycra ribbed cuffs and welt help the sweatshirt retain its shape and provide a snug, secure fit at the wrists and waist.
- A double fabric hood adds an extra layer of warmth and provides a more substantial, premium feel to the garment.
Design & Performance
Engineered with a heavyweight fabric blend, this sweatshirt is built to last. The interior features a brushed effect, which creates a soft-to-the-touch surface that provides superior comfort and helps trap heat for better insulation on cooler days. The set-in sleeves offer a classic tailored silhouette that allows for a full range of movement, making it as practical for the playground as it is for organised team activities. The front pouch pocket is both a functional storage space and a comfortable place for hands when the temperature drops.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. Embroidery is a superb choice for school crests or club logos, offering a durable and professional appearance that stands up well to repeated laundering. For larger, more vibrant designs—perhaps for a one-off event or a bold team name across the back—our high-quality printing services are ideal.
All customisation is handled by our expert in-house team in Telford. MyWorkwear has been refining these processes since 1976, ensuring that every logo is applied with precision and care to maintain the professional standards your organisation expects.
Use Cases
This versatile hooded sweatshirt is perfectly suited for school uniforms, junior sports teams, and youth organisations. Its durability makes it a reliable choice for everyday wear, while the professional finish ensures it looks appropriate for official outings or team events.

Practical Advice
As this is a heavyweight garment, it serves effectively as an outer layer during the spring and autumn months. For the colder winter term, we recommend layering it over a standard polo shirt or t-shirt to provide maximum thermal efficiency without restricting movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of this sweatshirt, it is essential to follow the recommended care guidelines. Regular maintenance ensures the fabric remains soft and the structural reinforcements continue to provide durability.
This garment is suitable for a domestic wash at 60°C. Washing at this temperature helps to effectively remove stubborn stains often encountered by children, while also ensuring that any bacteria are eliminated. Failing to adhere to this may result in permanent staining or a less hygienic garment over time.
