Product Overview
The Uneek Clothing UC517 Two Tone Hooded Sweatshirt represents a refined evolution of a workplace staple. Designed with a contemporary fit that moves away from the boxy silhouettes of the past, this medium-weight sweatshirt offers a professional aesthetic without sacrificing the comfort required for a full day's work. The contrasting side panels and internal hood lining provide a subtle visual interest that helps your team stand out while maintaining a cohesive corporate identity.
Key Features
- Twin Needle Stitching: Reinforced seams throughout the garment ensure it maintains its structural integrity, even when subjected to the rigours of manual labour.
- Double Fabric Hood: The dual-layered hood provides extra warmth and holds its shape better than single-layer alternatives, featuring a contrast internal panel for a sophisticated finish.
- Brushed Effect Reverse: The interior fabric has been brushed to create a soft, fleecy texture, providing superior insulation and comfort against the skin.
- Lycra Ribbed Cuffs and Welt: The addition of Lycra to the ribbing ensures the sleeves and waistband retain their shape and elasticity over time, preventing the garment from becoming baggy.
- Reactive Dyed Fabric: The fibres are treated with reactive dyes to ensure deep, long-lasting colour that resists fading even after repeated industrial or domestic laundering.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a balanced blend of 60% cotton and 40% polyester, the UC517 strikes the ideal middle ground between natural breathability and synthetic durability. The high cotton content ensures a soft hand-feel, while the polyester provides the necessary strength to withstand daily wear. The contemporary fit is designed to be sleek but practical, ensuring there is no excess fabric to get in the way of your tasks. Every detail, from the self-coloured drawstring to the front pouch pocket, has been considered for both utility and style.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This sweatshirt is a versatile choice for customisation. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery; the medium-weight fabric provides a stable base for dense logo stitching, ensuring your brand name remains crisp for years. If you require large, high-impact designs—perhaps for a promotional event or a bold back-print—our precision printing techniques are equally effective on this smooth cotton-mix surface. Our in-house team in Telford, drawing on decades of expertise since 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with absolute precision.
Use Cases
The UC517 is perfectly suited for tradespeople who require a layer that is warmer than a t-shirt but more flexible than a heavy jacket. It is equally at home in retail environments, delivery sectors, or as part of a modern office uniform for companies that value a smart-casual appearance. The unisex design ensures a consistent look across your entire workforce.

Practical Advice
The contemporary fit of this sweatshirt is slightly more tailored than a traditional oversized hoodie. If you intend to wear multiple thick layers beneath it, you may wish to consider sizing up. However, for most users, it serves as an excellent mid-layer over a t-shirt or polo shirt, providing warmth without bulk.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and appearance of your sweatshirt is straightforward if handled with care. We recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove everyday dirt and oils without putting undue stress on the fabric fibres or the integrity of your embroidered or printed branding.
Exceeding the recommended temperature can lead to premature fading of the reactive dyes and may eventually degrade the Lycra in the cuffs, leading to a loss of shape. By following the 40°C guideline, you ensure that the garment remains a reliable part of your work wardrobe for the long term.
