Engineered Comfort: The Double-Knit Tech Full-Zip Hoodie
The Polo Ralph Lauren Double-Knit Tech Full-Zip Hoodie elevates the traditional sweatshirt into a refined, performance-minded outerwear piece. By utilizing a specific double-knit construction and technical fibers, it achieves a clean, modern aesthetic perfect for any off-duty rotation.
Structured Double-Knit Technology
The "Tech" distinction comes from the fabric composition and knitting technique:
-
Double-Knit Fabric: The material is knit with two layers, creating a substantial, warm, and highly structured fabric that resists sagging and maintains a smooth, clean surface, giving it a more polished look than standard fleece.
-
Tech Blend: The composition is typically a Cotton blend that incorporates synthetic fibers to provide:
-
Smooth Hand: A sleek, non-pilling exterior.
-
Moisture Management: The blend helps manage moisture (though not a dedicated performance layer).
-
Stretch: Elastane offers essential comfort and mobility.
