Premium Navy Jumper with V neck - 50/50 cotton/acrylic blend - these jumpers are tried and tested to last, not to be confused with less durable, sometimes cheaper alternatives from other suppliers.

Quality and stylish knitwear in a blend of 50% combed cotton and 50% low pill acrylic ...
Over the last 20 years or so, a majority of school knitwear has been made from some form of 100% acrylic, marked under such brands as "Acrilan, Estorelle, Courtelle LC, gold, definition" etc. All acrylic fibre (acrylonitrile, its generic name) is totally synthetic and made mainly from petroleum. Although all acrylic (whatever its brand name) is a cheap durable fibre with a light handle it will always have the drawback of pilling, static build up and flammability. Cotton, on the other hand, is a natural fibre, cool and soft and comfortable to wear and touch.Cotton "breathes" and is hygienic and absorbent. Today, parents and children alike demand the benefits of natural fibres like cotton, in all their clothing and not just Schoolwear.

A combination of the two fibres would give the best of both worlds and here we have a classy range of knitwear that is hygienic, comfortable to wear, as well as being durable and colourfast to stand the every day rigours of Schoolwear.
