What's the difference between sweatshirts and hoodies for kids?
Children's sweatshirts are crewneck style without hoods, making them ideal for schools and activities where hoods aren't allowed. They're easier to layer, more formal-looking, and perfect for uniform requirements. Many Reading schools prefer sweatshirts over hoodies for their neat, professional appearance while still providing warmth and comfort.
Are sweatshirts suitable for school uniforms?
Absolutely! Kids sweatshirts are perfect for school uniforms as they look smart and professional. Most Reading schools approve crewneck sweatshirts as they don't have hoods that might obstruct vision or cause safety concerns. We print many school logos and work regularly with local Reading primary and secondary schools.
How do Reading schools order custom sweatshirts?
Reading schools can call us on 01183488874 for special education pricing and bulk ordering. We offer convenient payment terms for schools and can arrange fitting sessions at your premises. Many local schools visit our Broad Street Mall studio to see samples and discuss their uniform requirements with our team.
What colours work best for children's sweatshirts?
Classic colours like navy, royal blue, black, and burgundy are popular choices for Reading schools and sports clubs. These colours hide everyday marks while looking smart and professional. Lighter colours like grey and bottle green are also excellent options, and we can colour-match to your exact requirements.
Can you print school logos on kids sweatshirts?

We use commercial-grade inks that won't crack, peel, or fade - perfect for active Reading kids!
