100 PERCENT FOR
QUALITY
We’re the smart choice for quality schoolwear. All our garments are made from tough,
hard-wearing fabrics for
maximum durability. We firmly believe the better the cotton the better the garment, so we insist on only using the best raw cotton. What’s more, our in-house T-shirts and sweats are made from renowned Belcoro® yarn, which gives a softer feel,
improved
durability and better print quality. Our sweats are also made with 100% cotton face for
unbeatable pilling performance and improved durability. Plus, our easy-care 65/35 Polos can be washed at 60ºC, dry quickly and are easy to iron. We know our schoolwear can handle even the most active kids because we test it. We test it for
colour fastness,
pilling, shrinkage, tensile strength and much more. We even do real life
wearer trials in schools. So even when
they are worn every day and washed repeatedly, they still hold their shape and colour brilliantly.
Genius.

Hardworking sweatshirts for hardworking kids We know kids’ sweatshirts are worn and washed regularly, so we work hard to constantly improve the performance of ours.
That’s why all our in-house sweats are now made with Belcoro® yarn. Belcoro® creates a cleaner, more stable print area with fewer loose fibres. This means enhanced printability, maximum durability and improved washing performance. Top of the class. We also use a revolutionary knitting technique that keeps the polyester at the back of the sweat fabric and the cotton at the front. This technique creates unbeatable pilling performance and a sweat that lasts longer and can handle even the most demanding school environments. High quality polyester yarn means our sweats are less likely to shrink, while the addition of Lycra® to the hems, necks and cuffs allows for repeated washing without losing shape. Think sweatshirts, think Fruit of the Loom.
