262M - Russell Athletic Authentic Sweatshirt
The Russell 262M Authentic Sweatshirt offers a straightforward crew neck layer for casual staff uniforms, club clothing and everyday team outfits. Its straighter cut gives it a modern outline, while side seams help shape the fit. Wear the pullover over a T-shirt or polo when you want a simple extra layer.
The 280g/m² fabric uses three-thread construction with 100% cotton face yarn. This cotton surface is designed to support decoration, making the sweatshirt a useful starting point for a company or team logo. Standard colours contain 80% combed ringspun cotton and 20% polyester.
Sport Heather has a separate composition of 70% cotton, 20% polyester and 10% viscose. Herringbone tape finishes the neckline. When planning personalised clothing, consider the chosen colour and its fabric blend, then agree the artwork, position and decoration process with your supplier.
Nineteen colours are offered on this page, including familiar uniform shades, blue and green options, and brighter choices such as Fuchsia and Mustard. Sizes run from XS to 3XL. Compare measurements with a sweatshirt you wear comfortably, allowing for the clothing underneath, and follow the supplied care label and any instructions for printing or embroidery.
