CLIFTON Sutherland Custom Rowing Training Top

The Sutherland Custom Rowing Training Top is a lightweight technical garment for early-morning sessions, regattas, boathouse training, team travel, and active clubwear. Choose ventilated mesh, featherweight DriFit, or softer Poly-Cotton, then customize the sleeves, collar, colors, patterns, crest, sponsors, names, and individual details.

Every Sutherland is made from scratch around your rowing program.

Why Choose the Sutherland?

• Developed around rowing use: Suitable for erg sessions, water training, regattas, travel, and off-water conditioning.
• Three fabric options: Choose balanced performance mesh, maximum airflow, or a softer Poly-Cotton feel.
• Short or long sleeves: Adapt the top around climate, season, and training conditions.
• Complete club artwork: Add stripes, colors, crests, sponsors, names, numbers, and traditional rowing details.
• Optional technical features: Include thumbholes, arm stripes, contrast panels, and custom collar treatments.
• Flexible club sizing: Men’s, women’s, and children’s sizes can be mixed within the same order.

Fabric and Performance

The Sutherland is available in three fabrics.

• Performance Mesh: breathable and moisture-wicking, with a balanced technical feel suitable for training across a wide range of conditions. Our top recommendation for general rowing use.
• Featherweight DriFit Eyelet: the lightest and most ventilated option, designed for hot-weather sessions, high-output training, and teams prioritizing airflow.
• Classic Poly-Cotton Jersey: softer and more familiar against the skin, making it suitable for travel, light training, supporters, and year-round clubwear.

Which Fabric Should You Choose?

Choose Performance Mesh for a versatile technical rowing top with strong airflow and moisture management.

Choose Featherweight DriFit Eyelet for warm climates, summer regattas, and intense sessions where minimum weight matters most.

Choose Classic Poly-Cotton Jersey for a softer training and travel garment with a less technical feel.

Available garment options include:

• Short or long sleeves
• Custom collar and neckline styles
