Lady-Fit Full Zip Fleece Completes The Collection

The following article appeared in a recent edition of Printwear and Promotion Magazine:

'Fruit of the Loom can offer a complete collection of Outdoor Fleece products for men, women and children, following the launch of the new Lady-Fit Fleece. The launch is part of the Company’s programme to introduce great value coordinating designs across all over styles.

Practical and fashionable, the new Lady-Fit Full Zip Fleece is made from the same durable 100% polyester pill-resistant fleece fabric (300 gm/m2) as the Men’s Full Zip Fleece and the Children’s Outdoor Fleece.  Signature features that appear across the styles include raglan sleeves, subtle hem and seam detailing, twin side pockets and self-coloured zips.

A shorter body, which has a bottom hem that sits closer to the hips than the thighs, shaped side seams for a gently waisted, feminine silhouette, and covered zips for ease of embellishment are distinguishing features of the new Lady-Fit version.  The men’s jacket features an elasticated draw cord with stopper at the hem.

The Lady-Fit Full Zip Fleece is available in five core colours that are also available in the Men’s and Children’s styles – black, bottle green, deep navy, red and royal blue.  The Men’s style also comes in smoke, bright orange and bright yellow.  Sizes for the Men’s and Women’s styles range from S – XXL, the Children’s Outdoor Fleece is available in sizes 3-4 to 14-15 years.

Fruit of the Loom also offers two other fleece styles for Men – the classic Half Zip Fleece and the Sleeveless Fleece.  Both styles co-ordinate with the Full Zip Fleece jackets, offering the same pill-resistant fleece fabric, cover stitching detail and self coloured zips.

The colour palette for the Half Zip Fleece includes the five core colours, plus smoke. The Sleeveless Fleece is offered in black, bottle green, deep navy and red plus bright orange and bright yellow: “The availability of the bright colours in the sleeveless style reflects the garment’s particular popularity amongst workwear customers” Joanna Lewis from Fruit of the Loom comments. She adds :”Fleece jackets remain the number one outerwear choice for promotional customers, offering a compelling combination of warmth, breathability, ease of decoration and affordability. The new Lady-Fit style is an important addition to our product range as it gives our customers the opportunity to supply coordinating fleece outerwear for men, women and children – an increasingly important consideration in today’s marketplace”. '

Fruit of the Loom's New Styles From 2011

      

Fruit of the Loom have been strengthening their market leading activewear collection with five new garment designs in 2011. T-shirts led the way – three new Valueweight T styles marked the further expansion of this famous range. The Heavy Polo has also been re-invented, and the first ever women’s Outdoor Fleece has been launched.

More than a T-shirt, the Fruit of the Loom Valueweight T is a range that keeps growing. New in 2011 were the Fruit of the Loom Lady-Fit Valueweight V-Neck T, Lady-Fit Valueweight Long Sleeve T and the Tank Top. They are produced in-house at their manufacturing plant in Morocco, using fine knit gauge 100% cotton Valueweight fabric (160/165 gm/m2). This is made from Belcoro® yarn for a softer hand and great results for T-shirt printing.  All of the new Valueweight T styles feature cotton/Lycra® rib necks for extra comfort and superior shape retention.

The Lady-Fit Valueweight V-Neck T offers a direct female equivalent to the men’s Valueweight V-Neck T, and follows on from the success of the crew neck Lady-Fit Valueweight T. It is available in sizes XS-XL and six colours – White, Sunflower, Black, Red, Pink and Deep Navy.

The Lady-Fit Valueweight Long Sleeve T features a scooped neck, shaped side seams and a taped neckline, and complements both the men’s and children’s Long Sleeve Valueweight Ts. It is available in sizes XS-XL and comes in a choice of Black or White colours.

The Tank Top is a great all-rounder that’s perfect for sports casualwear and club uniforms, plus music merchandising. It features a contemporary sleeveless silhouette, classic crew neck and deep armholes finished with 1×1 rib cotton/Lycra®. It comes in sizes S-XXL and five colours – White, Black, Red, Heather Grey and Deep Navy.

The new Heavy Polo has been restyled to offer a more premium finish. It takes its design cues from retail trends and is ideal for leisurewear, sportswear and corporate events. Made in 100% cotton (230/240 gm/m2), it features a stand-up collar, self-fabric placket with three self-colour buttons, 1×1 rib sleeve cuffs, and a back yoke. It is available in sizes S-XXL and five colours – White, Black, Charcoal, Deep Navy and Brick Red.
The Lady-Fit Full Zip Fleece is perfect for workwear and outdoor leisure activities. It translates the contemporary styling of the men’s Outdoor Full Zip Fleece to a complementary women’s outerwear design. The Lady-Fit model is made from the same 100% polyester pill-resistant fleece fabric (300 gm/m2) as the men’s style, and shares the signature hem and raglan seam detailing, and two side pockets. However, its front and pocket zips are covered, and it adds a shorter body length and shaped side seams for a feminine silhouette. It is available in sizes S-XXL and five colours – Black, Bottle Green, Red, Royal Blue and Deep Navy.
