Womens Recharge Hoodie

The Womens Recharge Hoodie combines soft comfort, high elasticity and a feminine, tailored fit. The Italian fabric has a pleasant brushed inner side and a smooth outer side, giving the hoodie a clean, smart look. At the same time, the fabric is designed to move with your body, so the hoodie works just as well at work, when travelling, before and after training, or on a relaxed day off.

The brushed inside gives the fabric its soft, pleasant feel against the body. Together with the stretch in the fabric, this creates a hoodie that feels supple and comfortable through many hours of wear. It is an important part of the Recharge idea: a technical product that should also feel like a natural choice for everyday life.

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

The Womens Recharge Hoodie has a regular fit with a tailored, feminine silhouette. The fit leaves room for comfort and movement, while the shape still follows the body in a flattering way. The stretch in the fabric helps the hoodie feel comfortable around the shoulders, arms and upper body. That makes it a natural match for tights, Recharge Pants and jeans alike.

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 clean look and feminine fit make 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. It is made to be the piece you naturally reach for again and again throughout the day.

Yes, especially for light activity and as a layer before and after training. The fabric is elastic and developed for movement, while the full-length zip makes it easy to adjust how open you want the hoodie to be. For more intensive training, a product developed specifically for that activity will be the natural choice.

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 detail in the design, but a feature you will quickly come to appreciate in everyday life.

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

The Flag-tag logo is also a durable solution, because the branding element is built into the product's construction rather than applied on top. The result is a longer-lasting, understated brand look that works well for leisure, work and corporate use alike.

The fabric is produced in Italy, and the Womens Recharge Hoodie is sewn in Lithuania. FUSION has direct ownership and production expertise in Lithuania, which creates a close link between product development and production. This European production set-up is part of FUSION's approach to traceability and product knowledge.

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 Digital Product Passport 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 that covers 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 feminine fit, the clean look and the great colours makes the Womens Recharge Hoodie particularly interesting for companies and clubs. The colour range makes it possible to find 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. This makes it possible to create branded apparel where the branding looks polished, while the hoodie still feels like an appealing product in its own right.

The big advantage is that the employee or club member gets a hoodie she actually wants to wear – after work, when travelling or in her free time too.

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 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 women's fit, practical zip pockets, 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 designed to feel good, look good and be worn again and again.
