Product Information
Full details
This Blaklader sweatshirt is designed for male adults seeking enhanced visibility and comfort in their workwear. Its key benefit is the combination of 100% cotton French terry for warmth and strategically placed high-visibility panels for safety. A potential caveat is the specific focus on high-visibility features, which may be less relevant for non-work environments. Key features include high-visibility panels, a half-zip design, ribbed cuffs, an extended back for a better fit, and a high collar with a zipper.

FAQs
What material is the main body of the sweatshirt made from?
The main body is made from 100% cotton French terry, weighing 320 g/m² for warmth and comfort.
Are the high-visibility panels made of the same material as the main body?
No, the high-visibility panels are made of polyester to provide a contrasting, bright surface for enhanced visibility.
Is this sweatshirt suitable for very cold weather?
It provides good warmth due to the cotton French terry fabric and can be used as a layering piece in colder weather, especially when combined with other garments. The high collar also offers some protection against wind.
How should I clean the sweatshirt to maintain its visibility?
Wash in cold water with like colors, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid ironing directly on the high-visibility panels.
What does the 'half zip' feature offer?
The half-zip allows for adjustable ventilation, making it easier to regulate body temperature during physical activity. It also facilitates easy on and off.
Is this sweatshirt designed for a specific gender?
This particular variant is listed as Male, though Blaklader may offer similar unisex styles.
What is the benefit of the extended back design?
The extended back provides extra coverage and helps prevent the sweatshirt from riding up during movement, ensuring a more comfortable and secure fit throughout the day.
Troubleshooting
Sweatshirt feels too tight or loose
Refer to the size chart provided by Blaklader to ensure you have selected the correct size. Different sizes are available for a better fit.
High-visibility panels losing brightness
Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or high heat drying. Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions carefully. Consider the garment's age, as effectiveness may naturally decrease over extended use.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (pencil lead) or silicone-based lubricant can sometimes help.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure the sweatshirt is washed in cold water and dried on a low heat setting or line-dried, as per care instructions. Avoid hot water and high heat in the dryer.
