From the classic Diadora sweatshirt to the iconic adidas trefoil logo you'll love our latest collection of sweatshirts for the season.
In more recent years the basic crewneck
sweatshirt has become just as popular as the traditional knitted jumper with its athletic heritage going back nearly 100 years. As new trends come and go the sweatshirt has stood the test the time and was first seen on athletes in a traditional grey colourway back in the 1920s. The name came from the sweat absorbing function of the fleece cotton jumper which marked the next generation of sportswear as we know it today. As sweats still continue to rule the roost in casual lounge-wear it only seemed fitting to offer the iconic athletic apparel silhouette in classic 80s casual style with retro logo versions like the classic Diadora sweatshirt alongside updated 90s styles from the likes of
Marshall Artist.

As far as sweats and subcultures goes it was the original B-Boys from the 1970s and 80s that brought the sweatshirt phenomenon to other parts of the world. Just like the tracksuits they wore, sweats were super comfy and allowed for full body movement when break-dancing. Sweats have continued to be a popular part of hip hop culture ever since for their ease of wear, athletic function and overall comfort. So if sweats are your thing, the good news is we've now introduced a range of fresh new logo sweatshirts from the likes of Diadora, adidas Originals, Ellesse and Marshall Artist.
