Engineered for Performance

The Scruffs Trade Air-Layer Hoodie represents a significant evolution in thermal workwear technology, moving beyond standard fleece composites to a sophisticated air-layer structure. At 320gsm, the fabric is engineered to trap pockets of warm air between layers, providing exceptional insulation while maintaining a lightweight profile that prevents overheating during intensive tasks. The inclusion of 29% viscose adds a level of moisture-wicking capability essential for active shifts, ensuring the wearer stays dry as well as warm. Crucially, the garment features Abratect panels on the cuffs—high-stress zones that often fail first in construction environments. This reinforcement extends the garment's lifecycle significantly, offering better ROI for procurement managers. For cold mornings on site, this hoodie serves as an ideal mid-layer that can easily sit beneath heavy-duty Jackets without restricting circulation.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Workforce compliance often hinges on comfort, and this hoodie is designed to be worn for 8-10 hour shifts without irritation. The raglan sleeve construction eliminates shoulder seams, which is a critical feature for tradespeople carrying materials or operating overhead machinery, as it prevents chafing and allows for a full range of motion. The slim fit prevents loose fabric from becoming a snagging hazard, while the elasticated hem and hood ensure the garment stays in place during bending and reaching. The high neckline acts as an integrated draft excluder, further enhancing comfort in draughty warehouses or outdoor sites. With two secure zipped pockets, staff can keep essential tools or devices close at hand, merging operational utility with all-day wearability.
