Product Information
Full details
The Scruffs Trade Work Hoodie is designed for adult males seeking durable and comfortable workwear that offers warmth and practical features for demanding conditions. Its key benefit lies in the brushed back fleece for heat retention and abrasion-resistant panels for longevity. A potential caveat is its specific fit, which may vary for different body types, and its material composition, which is primarily polyester and cotton, meaning it may not be suitable for extremely high-heat environments without adequate layering.

Troubleshooting
Hoodie feels too tight or loose
Check the size guide to ensure the correct size was purchased. If a size exchange is not possible, consider how it fits with other layers. Ribbed cuffs and hem may offer some flexibility, but proper sizing is key.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth can help ease movement. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Fabric feels rough after washing
Ensure you are following the care instructions, particularly regarding washing temperature and detergent. Using a fabric softener during the wash cycle, or tumble drying on a low heat setting as recommended, can help restore softness.
Abrasion panels showing excessive wear
While designed for durability, extreme or prolonged abrasive contact can still affect the panels. Ensure your tasks are within the expected use case for workwear of this type. Check for any manufacturing defects if wear is unusually rapid.
