Product Overview
The Uneek UC507 Contrast Hooded Sweatshirt is a substantial, heavyweight garment designed for those who require a distinct visual identity without compromising on warmth or durability. This hooded sweatshirt features a striking two-tone design, with the interior of the hood and the lace cords finished in a contrasting colour to the main body, providing a professional yet modern appearance for your team or brand.
Key Features
- Reactive Dyed Fabric: The fabric has been reactive dyed to ensure the colours remain deep and vibrant, even after repeated laundering in demanding environments.
- Twin Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching on the seams provides enhanced structural integrity, ensuring the sweatshirt can withstand the physical rigours of daily work.
- Double Fabric Hood: A thick, dual-layer hood offers superior insulation and maintains its shape far better than single-layer alternatives.
- Pouch Pocket with Earbud Feed: The front kangaroo pocket includes a dedicated internal aperture for earbud cords, allowing for a secure and tidy connection to devices.
- Taped Neck: A taped seam along the neck provides additional comfort and prevents the garment from stretching out of shape over time.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a balanced blend of 50% polyester and 50% cotton, this sweatshirt offers the best of both worlds. The polyester provides essential durability and moisture-wicking properties, while the cotton ensures breathability and a natural feel against the skin. A brushed interior effect has been applied to the fabric, which significantly enhances comfort by creating a soft, fleecy texture that traps heat effectively.
To ensure a secure fit that stays in place during movement, the garment is finished with Lycra ribbed cuffs and a ribbed welt. This high-quality ribbing provides excellent recovery, meaning the sleeves and waist will not become baggy after extended wear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The UC507 is an ideal canvas for customisation. For a professional, high-end finish that withstands the test of time, we recommend embroidery for your company logo or staff names. The dense fabric provides a stable base for intricate needlework, ensuring the design does not pucker.
Alternatively, if you require large-scale branding or bold graphics, our print services offer a sharp, high-contrast finish that complements the two-tone design of the sweatshirt. All customisation is handled in-house by our expert team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience since our founding in 1976.
Use Cases
This hooded sweatshirt is perfectly suited for a wide variety of sectors including logistics, site management, and the trades. The contrast design makes it an excellent choice for promotional events or as a more stylish alternative to standard workwear for customer-facing roles where a professional appearance is paramount.

Practical Advice
Due to the substantial weight of this sweatshirt, it serves as an excellent outer layer in temperate conditions or a heavy mid-layer during the winter months. We recommend checking our size guide carefully to ensure a comfortable fit that allows for a t-shirt or base layer underneath without restricting movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and appearance of this garment, we recommend a domestic wash at 60°C. This temperature is effective for removing stubborn stains and ensuring the hygiene of the garment after a day on site.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will degrade the polyester fibres and cause the reactive dyes to fade, ruining the contrast effect. When drying, it is best to air dry the garment away from direct heat to preserve the elasticity in the Lycra ribbing and to protect any custom embroidery or print from heat damage.
