Personalised Hoodies

What Are Personalised Hoodies? 

Personalised hoodies are hooded garments customised with a company logo, team identity, text or design using print or embroidery.

They're widely used for work uniforms, construction and trade teams, hospitality, retail, warehouses, sports clubs, gyms, schools, universities and events. A good work hoodie gives staff an extra layer they can actually get on with wearing, while company hoodies help keep the team looking consistent.

You can keep things simple with a small chest logo or make more of the available space with a larger design. The right setup depends on the hoodie, the artwork and how it will be worn.

Pullover vs Zip vs Heavyweight Hoodies 

The best hoodie depends on the job. A standard pullover is easy to wear and gives you plenty of room for branding. Zip hoodies are more flexible when people are moving between different temperatures, while heavyweight styles come into their own when the weather turns. 

Heavyweight doesn't automatically mean pullover either. There are heavier zip styles available, so it's worth looking at warmth and construction separately.

If the hoodie will mostly be worn indoors, there may be little point buying the heaviest option on the shelf. For outdoor trades or colder workspaces, the extra weight can be worthwhile.

Printed vs Embroidered Hoodies 

Printing and embroidery both work well on hoodies, but they give a very different finish. 

Embroidery is a popular option for embroidered work hoodies where a neat, hard-wearing finish matters. Printing gives you more freedom with larger artwork and multiple colours.

The Funky Peach offers high-quality DTF printing. Rather than forcing one method onto every job, we'll look at the hoodie and artwork and recommend what makes sense.

Personalised Hoodies From Trusted Brands 

The logo is only half the job. If the hoodie underneath it loses its shape, feels uncomfortable or doesn't wash well, your team won't thank you for it.

The current range includes established clothing brands such as Just Hoods, Pro RTX, Anthem, Uneek Clothing, Russell Athletic, TriDri, Native Spirit and Stanley/Stella, covering everything from straightforward everyday hoodies to heavier, recycled and sports-focused styles.

For workwear, Orn is also represented in the hoodie range, while Regatta Professional offers further options across its broader workwear collection. Portwest is another familiar name for businesses that need more specialist workwear, including hi-vis hoodies.

Choosing a recognised brand can also make repeat ordering less painful. If new starters arrive later in the year, you've got a better chance of matching the same style and colour rather than rebuilding the uniform from scratch.

Which Hoodie Weight Is Best for Work? 

GSM stands for grams per square metre and is used to describe fabric weight. Generally, a higher GSM means a heavier, more substantial hoodie.

The current range runs from around 240 gsm up to 350 gsm.

For most everyday uniforms, a midweight hoodie gives you a useful balance of warmth and comfort. Lighter styles make sense where staff are active or already wearing several layers. If the hoodie will spend a lot of time outdoors, a heavier fabric may be the better call.

You'll also find cotton, polyester and cotton/polyester blends across the range, along with garments made using recycled fibres. GSM is useful, but it shouldn't be the only thing you look at. Fabric composition and working conditions matter just as much.

Personalised Hoodies for Men, Women and Teams 

The range includes men's, women's and unisex hoodies, along with children's styles for schools, junior clubs and teams.

There are classic workwear cuts, slimmer fits, oversized styles and plenty of colours to choose from. That makes it easier to find something that works with your company or club branding rather than settling for whatever happens to be available in black.

If you're ordering for a larger team, The Funky Peach can help with sizing, fit and colour selection. It's usually worth getting those details right before you put logos on a stack of hoodies.

How Do You Choose the Right Personalised Hoodie? 

A few things are worth deciding before you order:

• Where it'll be worn: Indoor staff may need something very different from an outdoor trade team
• Pullover or zip: A pullover is simple and gives you a large branding area, while a zip makes layering easier
• Fabric weight: Think about warmth, movement and what staff will wear underneath
• Fit: Choose something employees will actually be comfortable wearing through a full shift
• Decoration: Embroidery or DTF printing may suit the artwork better
• Logo position: Chest, back and sleeves can all work on suitable hoodies
• Budget: Look at the garment and decoration cost together
• Quantity: Larger orders can make decoration pricing more competitive

For someone working outside through winter, a heavier custom work hoodie is likely to earn its place. A warehouse team may be better off with something lighter and easier to layer. For staff moving constantly between indoor and outdoor areas, a zip hoodie is often the practical option.

Why Choose Branded Hoodies for Work Uniforms? 

Hoodies work well as uniforms because they're familiar, comfortable and easy to layer. Add your branding and they also help customers, visitors and other contractors recognise who's who.

They're particularly useful during cooler weather when a polo or T-shirt isn't enough but a full jacket would be overkill.

Branded hoodies are commonly used across:

• Construction
• Electrical
• Plumbing
• Landscaping
• Manufacturing
• Warehousing
• Logistics
• Hospitality
• Retail
• Gyms
• Sports clubs
• Schools
• Events

The priorities aren't identical across those sectors. A landscaping team may care about warmth and durability, while a gym or sports club is more likely to focus on comfort and movement. For retail and hospitality teams, appearance and consistent colours may carry more weight.

What’s the Process of Ordering Personalised Hoodies From The Funky Peach? 

1. Choose your hoodies

Pick your preferred style, colours, sizes and quantities.

2. Send us your artwork

Upload your logo or design. If the artwork needs some attention before it can be decorated, the team can help.

3. Choose your decorations

Confirm whether you want print or embroidery and where you'd like your design placed.

4. Approve the artwork

We'll send you a proof to check before production begins.

5. Production

Standard turnaround for printed and embroidered garments is 10 working days from payment. Express production reduces this to 7 working days on suitable orders, so give us a shout if you're working to a tighter deadline.

6. Collection or Delivery

Once finished, your order is checked before being dispatched or made ready for collection.

Stock availability, artwork approval, order size and decoration method can all affect timings. If you're ordering for a larger team, we can also help with sizing, garment choice and mixed-size orders before anything goes into production.

Why Choose Personalised Hoodies From The Funky Peach? 

The Funky Peach has been personalising clothing since 2010. Our approach is simple: internet prices, high street service.

That means you can order online without being left on your own when you've got a question. Our team can help with garment selection, artwork, sizing and decoration, and the work is completed in-house.

There isn't a big minimum order either. You can buy one hoodie if that's all you need, while larger orders benefit from more competitive garment and decoration pricing.

Free delivery is available on orders over £149, and we're here when you need to reorder too. Uniforms rarely stay frozen in time, so being able to add another garment for a new starter or replace a worn hoodie without a load of fuss is useful.

FAQs: Personalised Hoodies 

Are Personalised Hoodies Suitable for Workwear? 

Yes. Personalised hoodies can make practical workwear, as long as the garment suits the job and working conditions.

A trade team working outside may want a heavier, more durable hoodie, while warehouse, retail or hospitality staff might be more comfortable in a midweight style that's easy to layer.

Is Embroidery or Printing Better for Hoodies? 

It depends on the hoodie and the artwork. Embroidery works particularly well for logos that suit a neat stitched finish, while printing is often better for larger, detailed or multicolour designs.

Fabric, logo size, position and quantity can all affect the best choice.

What Weight Hoodie Is Best for Work? 

There's no single ideal weight. Lighter 240–260 gsm hoodies can be useful for indoor teams and layering, while 280–320 gsm styles are versatile enough for a wide range of everyday work.

If warmth is a bigger priority, the current range also includes heavyweight options around 350 gsm.

How Long Does It Take to Receive Personalised Hoodies? 

Standard turnaround for printed and embroidered garments is 10 working days from payment.

Express production is available on suitable orders at 7 working days. Stock, artwork approval, quantity and decoration method can affect timings, so contact The Funky Peach if you've got a fixed date to hit.

Can I Order Personalised Hoodies in Bulk? 

Yes. We supply larger hoodie orders for businesses, schools, clubs and teams, including mixed sizes.

Pricing becomes more competitive as quantities increase. If you're putting together a broader uniform, our workwear bundles are worth a look too.

Is There a Minimum Order Quantity for Custom Hoodies? 

You can order from just one garment. This is ideal for replacements, new starters or anyone who wants to try a hoodie before placing a larger order.

Can You Add My Company Logo to a Hoodie? 

Yes. Suitable hoodies can be printed or embroidered with your company logo, text or other artwork.

Chest, back and sleeve positions may all be possible, depending on the garment. Zips, pockets, seams and the artwork itself can affect where the decoration sits.

Which Hoodie Style Is Best for a Company Uniform? 

Pullover hoodies are a solid everyday option and give you plenty of room for branding. Zip hoodies are useful for staff who need to add or remove layers regularly, while heavyweight hoodies suit colder environments.

The best choice depends on how and where your team works.

What Other Personalised Workwear Can I Order? 

You can pair hoodies with personalised polo shirts, personalised T-shirts, custom shorts and personalised joggers and work trousers.

Our wider custom workwear range and workwear bundles can help you build out the rest of the uniform.

Which Industries Use Personalised and Branded Hoodies? 

Personalised hoodies are used across construction, trades, landscaping, manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, hospitality, retail, gyms, sports clubs, schools and events.

What makes a good hoodie changes with the job. Trades may prioritise weight and durability, sports clubs might care more about movement and team colours, while customer-facing businesses often want something comfortable that still looks smart.
