CLIFTON Sherman Custom Performance Quarter-Zip

The Sherman Custom Performance Quarter-Zip is a technical layer for training, travel, golf, teamwear, and active everyday use. Made from smooth polyester fleece with a soft brushed interior, it combines warmth with breathable performance and gives you complete freedom over colors, patterns, logos, names, numbers, and sponsor graphics.

Choose a quarter-zip or full-zip front, then customize the panels, pockets, collar, trims, embroidery, and printed artwork around your team or organization.

Why Choose the Sherman?

• Built for active use: Technical polyester fleece provides warmth without the heavier feel of traditional cotton sweatshirts.
• Full-color design freedom: The smooth outer surface is ideal for vivid sublimated patterns, gradients, logos, and edge-to-edge artwork.
• Quarter-zip or full-zip: Choose the opening that best suits training, travel, layering, or staff use.
• Soft brushed interior: The inside feels comfortable against the body while the outer face stays smooth and sportswear-focused.
• Flexible group sizing: Mix men’s, women’s, and children’s sizes within the same order.
• Practical finishing options: Add side pockets, chest pockets, placket blocks, contrast panels, embroidery, and custom trims.

Fabric and Performance

The Sherman is made from Polyester Performance Fleece, with a smooth outer face and a soft brushed lining.

The outer surface gives printed artwork a clean, sharp finish, while the brushed interior adds warmth and comfort. The fabric remains flexible during movement and dries more quickly than traditional cotton fleece, making it suitable for training, travel, warm-ups, golf, and changing weather.

It feels more technical and streamlined than a cotton quarter-zip, with less bulk and a smoother drape through the body.

Designed for Sublimation

The Sherman’s polyester surface allows artwork to be dye-sublimated directly into the fabric.

This means:

• Patterns and graphics can cover the full garment
• Printed logos remain light and flexible
• Multiple colors and gradients can be used without adding print weight
• Names, numbers, sponsors, and team details can be integrated into the design
• Printed artwork will not crack or peel
• Pantone-matched colors can be used for accurate team and brand presentation

Because the garment is assembled from individually printed panels, very precise artwork may not align perfectly across seams, pockets, zips, or panel joins.

Fit and Zip Options

The Sherman is available in men’s, women’s, and children’s sizing, with different sizes mixed within the same group order.

The athletic shape is designed to layer comfortably over a T-shirt, polo, or jersey while keeping a neat profile through the shoulders, chest, and body.

Available garment options include:

• Quarter-zip front
• Full-zip front
• Stand collar
• Custom collar lining
• Side pockets or secure zipped pockets
• Optional chest pocket
• Custom sleeve and body panels
• Elasticated, ribbed, or self-fabric cuffs and hems
• Custom zip pullers
• Mixed fits and sizes within the same order

Create a Complete Performance Layer

The Sherman can be designed as a restrained team pullover with a crest and contrast collar, or as a fully printed technical layer carrying patterns, sponsors, player details, and artwork across every panel.

You can customize:

• Base colors and Pantone-matched shades
• All-over patterns, gradients, and graphic artwork
• Club crests, company logos, sponsors, and event branding
• Individual names and numbers
• Sleeve, shoulder, side, chest, and back panels
• Collar, cuff, hem, pocket, and placket colors
• Zip tape, teeth, and puller colors
• Embroidery and twill patches
• Custom labels and internal branding
• Personalization across individual garments within the same order

Quarter-Zip or Full-Zip?

Choose the Quarter-Zip for a clean athletic layer that works particularly well for warm-ups, golf, travel, and off-field teamwear.

Choose the Full-Zip when easier removal, adjustable ventilation, or staff and sideline use is more important.

Both versions use high-quality YKK zips and can be customized with contrast colors, pullers, and placket details.

Best Suited To

The Sherman is particularly well suited to sports teams, schools, universities, golf groups, coaches, training squads, event staff, corporate teams, travel parties, and organizations that need a coordinated technical layer rather than a traditional cotton sweatshirt.

Consider Another Option If...

Choose the Westridge Custom Quarter-Zip if you prefer a softer cotton feel, heavier fabric choices, or a more traditional casualwear finish.

Explore Custom Hoodies if you want a hooded layer with a more relaxed shape.
