Product Information

Full details

This Fruit of the Loom Hooded Sweatshirt is designed for adults seeking a comfortable and versatile everyday garment. Its primary benefit is its blend of durability and softness, making it suitable for casual wear or as a layering piece. A potential caveat is that the 70% Cotton / 30% Polyester blend, while comfortable, may require specific care to maintain its shape and color over time. Key features include a double fabric hood, a self-colored drawcord, a front pouch pocket, and ribbed cuffs and waistband for a secure fit. The 280gsm weight provides a substantial feel without being overly heavy.
