Zip-Up or Pullover? Find Your Perfect NHS Hoodie for Every Shift

When you’re halfway through a 12-hour shift, comfort isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity. Whether you are running between wards, heading out on a community visit, or finally grabbing a well-earned tea break, having the right layer can make all the difference.

At CC Uniforms, we know that every healthcare professional has their own preference. Some love the cozy “hug” of a classic pullover, while others need the quick versatility of a zip-up. That’s why we’ve stocked our shelves with both, fully personalisable and available in over 30 specialist designs.

Here is how to choose the right one for you.

1. The Zipped Hoodie: Versatile & Practical

Best for: Busy shifts with changing temperatures.

If your day involves moving between hot wards and cool corridors, or if you need to throw a layer on and off quickly without messing up your hair or uniform, the Zipped Hoodie range is your best friend.

• Easy On, Easy Off: The full-length zip means you can vent heat instantly or take it off in seconds when things get hectic.
• Layering Hero: Wear it open over your scrub top or tunic for a relaxed look, or zip it up to the chin when you venture outside.
• Professional Look: Offers a slightly more structured fit that sits neatly over your uniform.

Customer Favourite: The NHS Custom Design Zipped Hoodie is a top pick for staff who want practicality without sacrificing pride.

2. The Pullover Hoodie: Maximum Warmth & Comfort

Best for: Night shifts, colder commutes, and maximum cosiness.

For those who want total insulation, nothing beats the Pullover Hoodie range. With no zip to let drafts in, it’s the ultimate “comfort blanket” for healthcare heroes.

• Heat Retention: The closed front and kangaroo pouch pocket are perfect for trapping body heat and keeping your hands warm.
• Cozy Factor: The brushed fleece inner feels softer against the skin, making it ideal for colder nights or relaxing in the staff room.
• Classic Style: The hoodie overhead style offers a timeless, athletic look that is great for both work and casual wear.

Customer Favourite: The NHS Rainbow Hoodie Pullover remains our #1 bestseller for teams wanting to show unity.

Same Great Quality, Whichever You Choose
