AS Colour Relax Crew | 5160

Description

The AS Colour Relax Crew sits at the intersection of heavyweight durability and wearable comfort. At 320GSM, this cotton-polyester fleece has the density to anchor bold decoration without the stiffness that makes cheaper blanks feel like cardboard after the first wash. The relaxed fit gives it the kind of effortless drape that streetwear buyers expect — not boxy, not slim, just easy.

Who Orders It

Streetwear labels building collections meant to be worn until they’re threadbare. Record labels and music venues running limited merch drops. Skate shops and creative studios outfitting their teams. Nonprofit organizations wanting donor apparel that actually gets worn. Coffee roasters and breweries looking for staff gear with presence. Brand launches where the sweatshirt is the first impression.

Decoration

The 320GSM weight handles screen printing with excellent ink saturation — colors pop and hold sharp edges even on larger chest prints. Embroidery sits clean on the fleece surface without sinking or puckering, making it reliable for left-chest logos up to 12,000 stitches. DTG prints well on the cotton-facing exterior, though expect slightly softer hand-feel on the print area. The recycled content in the CVC blend doesn’t affect decoration performance.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on this crew?
Screen printing delivers the boldest results on this weight — the dense fleece absorbs ink well and maintains sharp detail. Embroidery is equally strong for logos and text. DTG works but is best suited for photographic or gradient designs where softness matters more than vibrancy.

Is this heavy enough for cooler weather?
Yes. At 320GSM, this sits firmly in midweight territory — warmer than a standard hoodie blank but breathable enough for year-round wear in moderate climates. It layers well under jackets without adding bulk.

How does the relaxed fit actually fit?
It’s cut with extra room through the body and a dropped shoulder seam. Size true to size for the intended relaxed look, or size down if you prefer a more fitted silhouette.
