Mens Recharge Hoodie

The Mens Recharge Hoodie combines soft comfort, high elasticity and a clean, tailored fit. The Italian fabric has a comfortable brushed inside and a smooth outside that give the hoodie a simple, well-dressed look. The fabric is also developed to move with your body, so the hoodie works equally well at work, when travelling, before and after training or on a relaxed day off.

The brushed inner side gives the fabric its soft, comfortable feel against the body. Together with the elasticity of the fabric, this creates a hoodie that feels supple and comfortable through many hours of wear. That is a key part of the Recharge idea: a technical product that should also feel like a natural choice for everyday life.

The Mens Recharge Hoodie is made from a fabric of around 240 g/m² with a brushed inside. That gives a cosy, comfortable feel, while the fabric stays stretchy and supple. This makes the hoodie well suited as an extra layer on cool days, when travelling, and before and after training.

The Mens Recharge Hoodie has a regular fit – relaxed, but tailored. It leaves room for comfort and movement while keeping a clean, presentable look. The stretch of the fabric adds to a comfortable feel around the shoulders, arms and upper body. Most people find the fit true to size, so start with the size you normally wear.

The fabric has documented high stretch in both directions. It has been tested on a dynamometer to around 110% elongation across the width and 135% along the length under a 3.6 kg load. This means the fabric can give a lot as your body moves. In practice, you feel it when you raise your arms, sit down, stretch or are on the move.

Yes. That is one of the strengths of the Recharge Hoodie. Its simple, clean look makes it easy to wear in an informal work setting, while the comfort and stretch make it well suited to travel, leisure and the time around training.

The Recharge series is developed specifically for relaxing, travelling and pre/post race, so the Mens Recharge Hoodie is made to keep up with you through many different parts of the day.

Yes, especially for light activity and as a layer before and after training. The fabric is stretchy and developed for movement, while the full-length zip makes it easy to adjust how open you wear the hoodie. The product is developed for light training, recovery, travel and the time between sessions, among other things.

The fabric has been tested for pilling according to ISO 12945-2. The test was carried out with 7,000 Martindale cycles, and the fabric achieves a rating of 5 out of 5 against both fabric and wool.

Pilling is the small fibre balls that can form on the surface of textiles through friction. A rating of 5 is the highest score in this test and documents very high resistance to this type of surface wear. It is a relevant quality in a hoodie developed for frequent use.

Yes. The fabric has been tested for dimensional stability after washing at 40 °C. The material has also been tested for dimensional stability under steam. You can expect the product to shrink by around 2-3% after the first wash.

For everyday care of the Mens Recharge Hoodie, we recommend machine washing at 30 °C with similar colours, without fabric softener and with zips and fastenings closed before washing.

The hood is integrated as part of the hoodie's tailored construction. The ergonomic shape follows the head more closely and gives a more cohesive look when the hood is up. The close shape also means the hood moves with you better as you move.

No, it cannot be removed. The hood is shaped and a permanently integrated part of the function and design of the Recharge Hoodie. 

If you would rather do without the hood, choose a Recharge Full Zip, which is essentially the Recharge Hoodie - just without the hood. 

Yes. The hoodie has two roomy zipped side pockets. You can keep your phone, cards or keys in them, for example, and zip them shut when you are on the move. It is a discreet design detail, but a feature you will quickly come to appreciate at work, when travelling and in everyday life.

The Mens Recharge Hoodie uses FUSION's built-in Flag-tag logo as an integral part of the product. It gives a discreet, stylish brand expression that suits the clean design of the hoodie.

The Flag-tag logo is also a robust solution, because the branding element is built into the construction of the product rather than applied on top. This gives a more durable and understated brand expression that works well for leisure, work and corporate use alike.

The Mens Recharge Hoodie is Made in EU. The fabric is produced in Italy, and the hoodie is sewn in Lithuania at FUSION's own production facility. This European production structure creates a close link between product development and physical production, and also helps make the product's origin clear and traceable.

The Mens Recharge Hoodie is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified. This means all components of the product have been tested for harmful substances, including the fabric, thread, transfers, zips, elastics and labels. For you as a customer, this means documentation on the finished product – and on more than just the main fabric.

At the same time, production takes place at an OEKO-TEX® STeP – Sustainable Textile Production certified site. STeP covers areas such as environmental conditions, chemical management, working conditions and safety. For you, this means documentation both on the product's components and on key aspects of how it is produced.

Yes. The Mens Recharge Hoodie has a Digital Product Passport, which brings together information on the product's origin, materials, production and estimated climate footprint, among other things.

The climate footprint is calculated using a life cycle assessment covering the product's journey from raw materials and fabric production to manufacturing, packaging, transport, use and end of life. This lets you see more documentation about the specific product and makes the product story more transparent.

Yes. The combination of the clean fit, the simple look and the great colours makes the Mens Recharge Hoodie particularly interesting for companies and clubs. The colour range lets you create a look that matches the visual identity of your company or club.

The smooth outer surface of the fabric works really well with foil printing and gives logos and graphics a sharp, professional finish. Together with the discreet Flag-tag logo, this makes it possible to create branded apparel that leaves room for the company's own identity.

The big advantage is that the employee or club member gets a technical hoodie that also works for travel, leisure and the time around training. The Mens Recharge Hoodie is already a popular choice for logo-branded company wear, precisely because its versatility means it gets worn again and again.

Because the value lies in the product as a whole. You get a specialised Italian performance fabric of around 240 g/m² with a brushed inside and documented high elasticity. The fabric has also been tested for pilling according to ISO 12945-2 with 7,000 Martindale cycles and achieves a rating of 5 out of 5.

The fabric is combined with a well-considered men's fit, an ergonomically shaped hood, practical zip pockets, a full-length YKK zip, an integrated flag-tag logo and European production. On top of that come OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, production under OEKO-TEX® STeP – Sustainable Textile Production, and a Digital Product Passport that makes key information about the product's value chain and climate footprint more transparent.

It is a hoodie developed to feel good, look good and be worn again and again.
