About Our Hoodies
What types of leavers hoodies do you offer for schools and students?
We offer a range of hoodie styles, from classic pullover and zip-up hoodies to sweatshirts. All options can be customised to suit your school, college or university.
Can we choose different colours and sizes for the same hoodie order?
Yes, you can mix and match colours and sizes within one group order. This is especially useful for schools with house colours or students wanting different options.
What sizes are available for primary, secondary and college students?
We stock sizes suitable for all age groups, from small children in primary school right through to adult sizes for older students, staff and teachers.
Are your hoodies good quality and comfortable to wear?
Absolutely – we only supply high-quality, soft-touch hoodies that are designed to last. They’re warm, comfortable and ideal for everyday wear.
What materials are your hoodies made from?
Our hoodies and sweatshirts are typically made from a high-quality blend of 80% ringspun cotton and 20% polyester. They feature brushed back fleece for extra warmth, a smooth cotton-faced surface for excellent print results, and ribbed cuffs and hems for durability. Some shades or styles may vary slightly in composition, but all are chosen for long-lasting wear.
Can we get leavers hoodies for staff or teachers too?
Yes, many schools order additional hoodies for teachers or support staff. These can be personalised just like the student versions.
Design Options
How do we choose a leavers hoodie design for our school?
You can browse our most popular back designs online, which include classic number prints with names, school logos and more. Our team is happy to help if you’re unsure what works best.
Can we customise the front, sleeves and back of the hoodie?
Yes – you can personalise all areas of the hoodie. Most groups choose a large back design with an optional front logo, names on the sleeve or even embroidery.
What’s the difference between your standard and custom designs?
Standard designs use pre-set templates where you just supply names and logos. Custom designs can be built from scratch, letting you include bespoke artwork or layouts.
Can we include a full list of student names on the back?
Definitely – this is one of the most popular design elements. We’ll ask you to upload a complete list of names and include a proof before anything is printed.
Will we receive a proof or mock-up before our hoodies are printed?
Yes, you’ll receive a digital proof showing exactly how your hoodie will look. You’ll need to approve it before we start printing.
Can we upload our own school logo or artwork for the hoodie?
Yes, you can upload your own artwork or logo as part of your order. We’ll adjust it to make sure it looks great when printed or embroidered.
Ordering Process
How do we place an order for leavers hoodies?
You can start by browsing hoodie styles and submitting your choices for a quick quote. Once the design is confirmed, you’ll approve a proof and we’ll begin production.
Can students or parents order their own hoodies online?
Yes – we can set up a personalised online shop for your group. Everyone can select their size and colour, then pay securely online.
What happens after we approve the final hoodie design?
Once the artwork is approved and payment is confirmed, we’ll begin printing, labelling, and packaging your order for dispatch.
Can we re-order if we need more hoodies later?
Yes – you can place a top-up order using the same design, as long as we still have your artwork and hoodie style in stock.
How far in advance should we order our leavers hoodies?
We recommend ordering at least 4–6 weeks in advance to allow time for artwork approval, production and delivery. We can turn around rush orders in as few as four working days, if you're needing them quickly.
Do you offer help or support during the ordering process?
Absolutely – every school or organiser has one dedicated account manager, so there’s always someone to help if you need anything.
Delivery & Distribution
How long does it take to receive our leavers hoodies?
Once your artwork is approved and payment is confirmed, production usually takes 2–3 weeks. We then send the order by next-day courier with full tracking.
How are the hoodies packaged and delivered to us?
Hoodies are carefully folded, labelled, and bagged for protection. We ship them in bulk boxes via Parcelforce with full tracking and delivery confirmation.
Can you sort the hoodies by class or label them individually?
Yes – we label every hoodie with the name and class to make handing them out quick and stress-free for teachers and organisers.
Do you deliver to individual home addresses or just to schools?
Both options are available. For group orders, we usually deliver to one central address. For online shops, we can post direct to each individual buyer.
Is tracking available on our hoodie delivery?
Yes – all orders are shipped with tracking, and you’ll be sent the tracking number once dispatch is confirmed.
What should we do if there’s a problem with our delivery?
Contact us straight away and we’ll sort it. We’re here to make sure no child is left without a hoodie and that every order arrives safely.
Payments & Pricing
How much do your leavers hoodies cost?
Prices start from £17 per hoodie, depending on your style, design choices and order size. We’ll give you a full quote with no hidden costs.
Are there any extra charges for custom designs or upgrades?
Yes – optional extras like front embroidery, sleeve prints or premium fabrics may have a small additional cost. These will be outlined clearly in your quote.
Is there a minimum order quantity for group hoodie orders?
We usually ask for a minimum of 10 hoodies per order, but we can sometimes accommodate smaller requests – just get in touch.
Can we pay as a school or do individuals pay online?
Both options are available. Schools or organisers can pay as one group, or we can set up an online shop for individual payments.
Do you offer discounts for large or early orders?
Yes – larger groups and schools that order early in the year often benefit from lower pricing. Contact us to find out more.
Are your prices inclusive of VAT and delivery?
Yes – all our quotes include VAT and UK mainland delivery, so there are no surprises later.

Do you offer refunds or exchanges if a hoodie doesn’t fit?
We do our best to get sizing right upfront, but if there’s a problem, contact us and we’ll do what we can. In some cases, we can offer reprints or alternatives.
