Recommendations About Purchasing Branded Hooded Sweatshirts From Our Collection
Cotton, Polyester… Which Material is Most Suitable?
We offer a variety of materials for promotional sweatshirts and hoodies, so it’s essential to know which one best suits your needs.
If you’re looking for a soft, comfortable fabric suited to milder climates, cotton is ideal.
On the other hand, if durability, wrinkle and wear resistance, and suitability for sports or humid climates are priorities, polyester is the better choice, though it’s less soft and breathable than cotton.
There are also blended options that combine both materials, providing softness, breathability, and durability, making them ideal if you want a more versatile sweatshirt suitable for a range of uses.
Finally, we offer options made from organic cotton and recycled polyester, two more eco-friendly materials.
Each Fabric Weight Suits a Different Climate
Fabric weight is measured in grams per square metre (gsm), and depending on this thickness, the sweatshirt is recommended for certain environments:
- Lightweight (180-240 gsm): Thinner and therefore ideal for warmer climates or as a layer under a jacket.
- Midweight (240-300 gsm): The most popular for everyday use, providing a good balance of warmth and comfort. Perfect for moderate temperatures.
- Heavyweight (over 300 gsm): Thicker and designed for colder climates or outdoor work.
Add a Touch of Style to Your Promotional Sweatshirt
One of the most common styles is the simple crewneck sweatshirt without a hood, practical but stylish. We also have designs with added elements to make each garment unique.
For a more casual and sporty look, a branded hoodie is a popular choice, as it offers extra protection as well as a distinctive style.
Some hoodies come with pockets, either side pockets or a kangaroo pouch, for carrying small items within easy reach.
There are also zip-up options, either full-zip or quarter-zip, which allow you to adjust the ventilation and comfort of the garment.
Show Off Your Logo in Different Places
We offer several techniques for printing sweatshirts and hoodies, including screen printing, transfer, or embroidery. However, where the logo is placed can make a big difference in visual impact.
The most common area is on the front, either covering the full surface (for maximum visibility), on the chest, or on the pocket.
Then there’s the back, where the logo or a message can be placed either centrally or at the top.
Lastly, the sleeves offer a more subtle option, though visibility may depend on the arm position.
Each product is unique, so not all techniques and marking areas are available for the entire range.
Tips for Caring for Your Branded Sweatshirts and Hoodies
On each product page, you’ll find specific cleaning instructions and other care tips. However, here are some general guidelines to keep your sweatshirts in optimal condition:
- Washing: Wash inside out in cold water with a mild detergent, and avoid bleach.
- Drying: Air dry, and if using a tumble dryer, set it to a low temperature.
- Ironing: Iron at a medium-low temperature with the garment inside out or with a towel over the logo to protect it.
Hoodie or Sweatshirt?
The choice depends on the intended use. Hoodies are very practical if they’re to be the outer garment. Crewneck sweatshirts (without a hood) are ideal if the person will be layering with a jacket over the sweatshirt.
In conclusion, even if the hood is not in use, it may be uncomfortable, especially if the jacket also has a hood. If these garments are for your employees, consider how they’ll be layering up before choosing a model.
Additional Tips
· Choose the Right Fit for Maximum Comfort: When selecting hoodies or sweatshirts, consider whether a relaxed or fitted style suits your team’s needs. Looser fits offer more comfort and movement, while fitted styles provide a sleek, professional look.
· Opt for Colours That Represent Your Brand: Selecting colours that align with your brand’s palette can strengthen brand identity. Neutral colours like grey, black, and navy are versatile, while brighter colours can make a bold statement.
· Think About Seasonal Versatility: Lightweight hoodies are ideal for spring and autumn, while heavyweight options are better suited for colder months. Choosing a mix can provide employees with year-round options.
· Consider Practical Features: Details like zippered pockets, adjustable hoods, or moisture-wicking fabric can add functionality. Hoodies with zip closures are great for layering, while kangaroo pockets are ideal for casual, everyday use.
· Plan for Personalisation: If you’re adding a logo, think about placement—left chest, full back, or sleeve designs each offer different levels of visibility and impact, depending on your goals.
Frequently Asked Questions About Branded Hoodies
How to choose a branded sweatshirt
If you're looking for affordable sweatshirts and hoodies without compromising on quality, we recommend the following: First, choose models with a lighter weight, which will provide less warmth but are more affordable than heavier options. Second, opt for a design without a hood or pockets; the simpler the sweatshirt, the cheaper it will be. Third, avoid printing methods such as embroidery. Instead, go for screen printing and, if possible, simplify your logo to a single colour.
Why buy hoodies and sweatshirts with logos?
Like promotional t-shirts, sweatshirts are a popular product available in a wide range of colours and printing techniques. They offer a large print area, which makes them highly visible compared to other promotional merchandise. Additionally, the variety of materials ensures you can select the most comfortable option for the wearer, while maintaining excellent quality. Sweatshirts also come in different styles, such as with hoods, kangaroo pockets, or zippers, giving you plenty of choices to suit your needs.
What other merchandise can be paired with sweatshirts to create a pack?
Sweatshirts are an ideal promotional item for colder weather. If you're planning to create a merchandise pack with sweatshirts, consider pairing them with winter-friendly items. We recommend exploring our sections on branded beanies and scarves, as they complement sweatshirts perfectly. These products are commonly used outdoors, offering an affordable and effective way to promote your brand.
Embroidered or screen printed hoodies: which is the best option?
The main printing methods for our sweatshirts include textile screen printing, embroidery, and digital textile transfers. Textile screen printing is a cost-effective option that allows for printing in one or several colours. Embroidery, which uses coloured threads, gives a more professional finish. Digital textile transfer, using durable ink, is a great choice for adding full-colour images. For details on the available techniques for the model you have chosen, simply visit the product page, where all options are listed.
How many days will it take to receive my promotional sweatshirts?
The delivery time for sweatshirts and hoodies is between 5 to 7 working days. This period begins once you have approved the final product and logo based on the proof we provide. To find specific delivery times, check the product page after selecting the colour, quantity, and customisation. The time frame shown on the right reflects our standard free delivery service for the UK. For other delivery options, please contact us beforehand.
Can I order just one printed sweatshirt?
As we work with custom-made production, ordering a single sweatshirt would be costly. However, for many of our models, the minimum order quantity is just 5 units, meaning we can fulfil your request for a smaller volume. Additionally, we offer discounts on bulk orders across all of our products.
