Constructed from a durable 50/50 cotton and polyester fleece blend, the Gildan 18000 provides warmth, softness, and excellent durability. The 8 oz fleece fabric offers a substantial feel while remaining comfortable for everyday wear. Air-jet spun yarn technology helps reduce pilling and creates a smooth surface that maintains its appearance through repeated washing and regular use.
Designed with a classic unisex fit, the Gildan 18000 offers comfortable layering and universal appeal. Set-in sleeves provide a clean silhouette, while rib knit cuffs, collar, and waistband with spandex help maintain the garment's shape over time. Double-needle stitching throughout the sweatshirt reinforces key stress points and enhances durability, making it an excellent choice for workwear, school apparel, and active lifestyles.
