FAQs
What type of fabric is the Sprint City Hoodie made from?
The hoodie is made from a lightweight, soft, and stretchy Q-Wic fabric, which is designed for sweat-wicking and quick drying.
Is this hoodie suitable for cold weather?
While it offers some warmth, it is primarily a lightweight workout layer. For very cold weather, it would be best used as a base or mid-layer under warmer outerwear.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The hoodie has a slim fit. Refer to the brand's sizing chart and consider your preferred fit; if you prefer a looser feel, you might consider sizing up.
Can I wear this hoodie for running in direct sunlight?
Yes, the hoodie features UPF 50+ protection, making it suitable for running in sunny conditions to help shield your skin from UV rays.
How effective is the odour control feature?
The built-in anti-bacterial odour control helps to prevent the build-up of smells during intense workouts, keeping the garment fresher for longer between washes.
What are the benefits of the thumbholes?
The thumbholes help to keep the sleeves securely in place during movement and provide a little extra warmth for your hands.
What is the best way to wash and care for this hoodie?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble drying on high heat. It is best to hang dry or tumble dry on low.
Troubleshooting
Fabric not drying quickly
Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the dryer and that the heat setting is appropriate. Check for any residue from fabric softeners that might be hindering drying.
Unusual odor persists after washing
Rinse the garment thoroughly before washing. Use a sports-specific detergent or a vinegar soak (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) before a regular wash cycle to help break down odor-causing bacteria.
Thumbholes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Gently stretch the fabric around the thumbhole area while damp. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the slim fit design is the primary cause.
Hood design feels restrictive
Experiment with how the crossover hood sits. It is designed for a snugger fit; try adjusting its position slightly for different activities.
