Description
The Russell Athletic Authentic Sweatshirt brings together a classic crew neck look with a modern athletic shape, making it a strong choice for branded clothing, teamwear, staff uniform and everyday casual wear. Its neat silhouette gives custom logos and artwork a smart, professional finish.
Designed with a drop shoulder style and refined fit through the upper body, it offers a contemporary look that works well across workplaces, clubs, schools and promotional use. The clean lines also make it a popular option for custom decoration.
At Oakdene Merch in Surrey, we print garments in-house using DTF printing, which makes this sweatshirt a great canvas for bold branding, event graphics and personalised designs. Embroidery is also available on many garments if you are looking for a more traditional finish.
If you need a versatile sweatshirt that feels familiar, looks polished and suits a wide range of branding projects, this Russell Athletic style is an easy pick.

The Printing Process
What is DTF Printing?
DTF (Direct to Film) printing is a modern technique that allows us to print your design with incredible detail, colour, and durability onto garments.
Your artwork is printed onto a specialist film, then heat-pressed onto the fabric. This creates a soft, flexible finish that sits neatly on the garment without cracking or fading.
Why we use DTF
Sharp, vibrant results
DTF captures fine detail, gradients, and bold colours far better than many traditional methods. perfect for logos, illustrations, and multi-colour designs.
Works on almost any fabric
Cotton, polyester, blends, DTF handles them all. No need to worry about fabric type limiting your design.
No minimums
Because there’s no setup like screen printing, we can produce one-off items or small runs cost-effectively.
Durable and long-lasting
The print is designed to stretch with the fabric and hold up wash after wash without cracking or peeling.
What does DTF look and feel like?
DTF prints have a smooth, matte finish. They’re soft enough for everyday wear, while still giving your design strong opacity, even on darker garments.
