Crewneck Sweatshirts (CR280) 8.8 Oz / 298 GSM

Ideal For

The CR280 is the go-to midweight crewneck for decorators building branded sweatshirt programs at wholesale volume. With 18 colorways in stock, ranging from staple neutrals to trending tones like Sage and Cream Beige, it covers streetwear drops, corporate merch, university programs, and seasonal collections. There is no minimum order on standard stock, so decorators can order a single crewneck to sample before committing to a full program.

Fabric & Construction

Built at 8.8 oz (298 GSM) in a 70/30 cotton-poly blend, the CR280 hits the sweet spot between substantial hand-feel and easy care. The seamless body eliminates side seams, giving decorators an uninterrupted print surface with no ridges to catch screens or platens. Set-in sleeves with two-needle coverstitching at the collar, armhole, and waistband reinforce high-stress seams. The 1×1 ribbed collar, cuffs, and waistband incorporate spandex for shape recovery through repeat washes, and concealed cuff seams add a retail-tier finish. The tear-away label clears the neckline for private-label relabeling in seconds. Washing and drying decorated fleece the right way extends garment life. See our sweatshirt care guide.

Decoration Guide

The 298 GSM fleece face holds screen-printed plastisol and water-based inks with sharp edge definition, making it ideal for spot-color logos and oversized prints. DTG performs equally well because the cotton-dominant blend absorbs ink evenly without the dye migration common in higher-poly blanks. Embroidery is excellent on this garment. The fabric weight supports dense stitch counts without puckering, and the seamless body means placements sit flat on the hoop. Heat-transfer vinyl bonds reliably for names and small-run work. Sublimation is limited to light colorways only, and expect muted results on 70/30 cotton-poly. See our screen printing guide for heavyweight and midweight fleece for press settings that match this weight.

Pairs Well With

Pair the CR280 with the Fleece Joggers (8801) for a full matching sweatsuit program, or with Fleece Shorts (7770) for warm-weather sets that move through spring and summer. Both bottoms share the same 8.8 oz 70/30 fabric and colorway palette, so dye-lot matching is seamless. For clients who prefer a hooded option in the same weight class, offer the Midweight Pullover Hoodie (P280) as the companion piece.
