“We are delighted that each of our five UK distributors are committed to taking both our new blazers and knitwear,” said Russell. “In our discussions each of them has welcomed the new business development opportunity that the new range creates, supported in no small part by their ability to offer next day delivery, 52 weeks of the year.”

The blazer (700M and 700F) comes in chest sizes 28-42in for boys (single inch sizes up to 38in). Girls' sizes are 27-40in for girls (single inch sizes up to 36in). Available in black, navy, maroon and dark green, the fully lined blazer is smartly tailored with a quality finish. Treated with Du Pont Teflon fabric protector to repel stains, it has three external and two internal pockets (one zipped, one open), plus a name and class label with ribbon hanger on neck. The innovative embroidery access for the chest pocket allows the decorator to embroider a school badge/crest on the pocket area while still allowing use of the chest pocket itself. (see picture).

Building on the success of the 710M V-neck Pullover Jerzees Schoolgear extends its offering to include a girl’s V-neck pullover, 710F, together with a sleeveless pullover and Girl’s V-neck cardigan – all in easy care CottonBlend that combines the coolness and lightness of cotton with the softness, warmth and stain resistance of acrylic. The knitwear comes in black and French navy and in sizes from XXS to 4XL.

Russell recognises the need to get blazer samples into the hands of decorators for them to see first hand the quality of the garment, together with the product information, and has invested heavily in a sampling campaign that will be rolled out over the next couple of months.
