Gildan Gildan Heavy Blend™ Hooded Sweatshirt
Description
The Gildan Heavy Blend™ Hooded Sweatshirt (style GD57) is a classic hooded jumper crafted from a 50/50 cotton/polyester blend, available in White at 270gsm and colours at 280gsm. Designed with a classic fit and drop shoulder style, the fabric uses air jet yarn for a softer hand and reduced pilling, making it comfortable for everyday wear and hardwearing enough for repeated wash cycles.
Construction details include a double-lined hood with self-colour drawcord, a front pouch pocket, tubular body and ribbed cuffs and hem with spandex for shape retention. Twin-needle stitching and a tear-out label add durability and user-friendly finishing. The GD57 takes print and embroidery well, making it a versatile choice for teamwear, workwear and personalised leisurewear. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.
