Personalised Sweatshirts

What Are Personalised Sweatshirts? 

Personalised sweatshirts are sweatshirts customised with a company logo, team identity, text, artwork or another design using print or embroidery.

They're commonly used for company uniforms, branded workwear, sports teams, clubs, schools, events and promotional clothing. A sweatshirt is easy to layer over a T-shirt or polo, making it a useful middle layer when a lighter top isn't enough but a jacket would be too much.

You might need custom sweatshirts for a warehouse team, printed sweatshirts for an event or embroidered sweatshirts for staff who regularly meet customers. Whatever the use, it's worth choosing the garment first and the decoration second.

Printed vs Embroidered Sweatshirts 

Both can look smart, but print and embroidery suit different kinds of artwork and garments. 

Embroidery is often a good fit for company sweatshirts where you want a tidy, long-lasting finish. Printing gives you more flexibility when the design is larger or contains finer detail. The Funky Peach offers high-quality DTF printing. 

Personalised Sweatshirts From Trusted Brands 

The decoration matters, but so does the sweatshirt underneath it. If you're ordering for staff who will wear and wash the same garment regularly, fabric, fit and consistency make a real difference.

The current range includes brands such as Just Hoods, Fruit of the Loom, Russell Athletic, Native Spirit, Tee Jays, SOL'S, Nimbus and Stanley/Stella. Between them, there are straightforward crew necks, smarter quarter-zips, heavier sweatshirts and options using organic cotton or recycled fibres.

For more traditional workwear, Orn offers practical crew neck and quarter-zip sweatshirts, while Regatta Professional has further work-focused styles. Portwest is also worth considering where you need more technical or specialist workwear.

Using an established brand can make repeat ordering simpler too. If you need extra garments for new starters later in the year, matching the same style, fit and colour is much easier.

Choosing the Right Sweatshirt Material and Weight 

GSM stands for grams per square metre and gives you a rough idea of fabric weight. In simple terms, a higher GSM usually means a heavier sweatshirt.

The current Funky Peach range runs from lighter 240 gsm styles through to heavier 330–350 gsm options.

Cotton/polyester blends are common because they balance comfort with everyday practicality. You'll also find 100% cotton sweatshirts, along with styles using organic cotton and recycled polyester.

For most indoor teams, there's little point buying the heaviest sweatshirt available. A midweight option is usually easier to wear through a full shift. Outdoor staff, colder workshops and less-heated warehouses may get more benefit from a heavier garment.

Company Sweatshirts With Your Logo 

Company sweatshirts with logo decorations are an easy way to add another layer to a uniform without making staff look mismatched once the temperature drops.

They're useful across trades, warehousing, logistics, hospitality, retail, offices and events. A small embroidered chest logo keeps things understated and professional, while larger printed artwork can suit promotional clothing or merchandise.

Sweatshirts also work well alongside the rest of your uniform. Pair them with personalised polo shirts, personalised T-shirts and personalised joggers and work trousers to keep colours and branding consistent.

Personalised Sweatshirts for Teams, Clubs and Events 

Sweatshirts aren't only useful from Monday to Friday. Sports clubs, gyms, schools, universities, societies and event teams also use them.

What works best changes with the job. A university society selling merchandise might put colour and fabric feel near the top of the list. Event staff may need something easy to order across a wide mix of sizes. A sports club could favour a lighter layer that's comfortable before and after training.

Decoration requirements change too. A club crest often suits embroidery, while a bigger event graphic may work better in print. There's no point choosing the most impressive sweatshirt in the catalogue if it doesn't suit how people will actually use it.

How Do You Choose the Right Personalised Sweatshirt? 

Before ordering, think about:

• What it's for: Daily workwear, team clothing, merchandise and event kit all have different priorities
• Where it'll be worn: Indoor staff generally need less warmth than people working outside
• Style: A standard crew neck keeps things simple, while a quarter-zip gives more control over ventilation
• Material: Cotton, polyester and blended fabrics all behave differently
• Weight: Consider warmth and how active the wearer will be
• Fit: Choose something your team will be comfortable wearing for hours at a time
• Decoration: Embroidery, DTF, DTG or another print method may suit your artwork best
• Logo position: Chest, sleeve, front and back placements may be possible
• Budget: Look at garment and decoration costs together
• Quantity: Larger orders can make decoration pricing more competitive

For a straightforward everyday uniform, a midweight crew neck is a dependable choice. Quarter-zips work well when staff want more flexibility with temperature, while heavier sweatshirts make more sense in colder environments.

FAQs: Personalised Sweatshirts 

Are Personalised Sweatshirts Suitable for Workwear? 

Yes. Sweatshirts can make practical workwear when the fabric, weight and fit suit the job.

Trades and colder workplaces may benefit from something heavier, while warehouse, logistics, retail, hospitality and office teams might prefer a lighter or midweight garment that's comfortable throughout the day.

Is Embroidery or Printing Better for Sweatshirts? 

It comes down to the artwork and garment. Embroidery works particularly well for logos that suit a clean stitched finish, while print gives you more freedom with larger, colourful or detailed designs.

Fabric, logo size, placement and order quantity can all influence the right choice.

What Weight Sweatshirt is Best for Work? 

There isn't one ideal weight for every workplace. Lighter 240–260 gsm sweatshirts are useful for layering and warmer indoor settings, while 280–300 gsm styles make versatile everyday workwear.

For colder conditions, the current range also includes heavier options around 310–350 gsm.

Can I Order Company Sweatshirts With My Logo? 

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

Possible positions include the left or right chest, sleeve, front and back. The exact options depend on the garment, artwork size and construction.

How Long Does It Take to Receive Personalised Sweatshirts? 

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, order size and decoration method can all affect timing, so contact The Funky Peach if you're working towards a fixed date.

Can I Order Personalised Sweatshirts in Bulk? 

Yes. The Funky Peach handles larger orders for businesses, clubs, schools, events and other organisations, including mixed sizes.

Decoration pricing becomes more competitive as quantities increase. If you're ordering a wider uniform at the same time, workwear bundles are also worth considering.

Is There a Minimum Order Quantity for Personalised Sweatshirts? 

You can order from just one garment.

That's handy for replacements, new starters or trying a style before committing to a bigger order.

Where Can a Logo Be Placed on a Sweatshirt? 

Common positions include the left chest, right chest, sleeve, front and back.

The available space will depend on the sweatshirt itself and the size of your artwork. Seams, zips and other design details can all affect placement, so this is checked before production.

Which Sweatshirt Material Is Best for Workwear? 

There isn't a single material that suits every job. Cotton-rich and cotton/polyester blends are popular for everyday uniforms because they balance comfort with regular wear, while polyester can help with durability and quicker drying.

Organic cotton and recycled-fibre options are available too. The right choice comes down to the working environment, how often the garments will be washed and how much warmth is needed.

What Other Personalised Workwear Can I Order? 

You can match your sweatshirts with personalised polo shirts, hoodies, personalised T-shirts and personalised joggers and work trousers.
