The Authentic Sweat crew neck by Russell is the hoodless version of the 280 g/m² 3-layer fabric sweatshirt: 80% combed ring-spun cotton and 20% polyester internally, with a 100% cotton outer surface for optimal printability. Compared to the hooded version (0R265M0) the construction is identical — fabric, certifications, 19-colour palette, sizes XS–5XL — with the sole difference of the crew neck instead of a hood. The contemporary straight cut, side seams and coverseamed armholes and cuffs make it durable for continuous use. Suitable for contexts where hoods are inadvisable or prohibited (workplaces, hospitality, schools). The 20% polyester rules out discharge and . only.

Printing techniques.
A verdict for each one.
What to expect on this specific product, technique by technique.
100% cotton outer surface: excellent screen printing results, identical to the hooded version. The crew neck provides a wider, easier-to-manage front print area — no hood interference. White underbase required on Black, French Navy, Bottle Green, Burgundy, Convoy Grey, Indigo Blue, Bright Royal. The 20% internal polyester requires attention to curing temperature to avoid dye migration.
The 280g weight and sweatshirt structure hold embroidery excellently. The crew neck is particularly well suited for chest embroidery with no hood-related risks. Ideal for corporate logos and text. Avoid areas larger than 10x10 cm. Use reinforcement stabiliser.
