Fruit of the Loom does not sell a single "tracksuit" product in Europe; instead, its hoodies, crewnecks and jog pants are cut from the same 280 g/m² fleece in the same colours, so you build the set yourself. Done right, that gives you a matching sweatsuit for around €33–38 — far less than sports brands charge. This guide shows which pieces to combine, which weight to pick and where the set is cheapest.
A Fruit of the Loom tracksuit is a Classic Hooded Sweat (280 g/m²) or Classic Set-In Sweat combined with Classic Elasticated Cuff or Open Hem Jog Pants (280 g/m²) in the same colour. At Marmalade Co. the cheapest verified set is hoodie €20.95 + sweatpants €16.95 = under €38, or around €33 when the sweatpants are on sale at €11.95; a crewneck set is about €34. Buy 3+ pieces for 5 % off, 5+ for 10 % off, €7 DHL shipping, 2–3 business days.
Sports and fashion brands sell tracksuits as sets at €60–120. Fruit of the Loom takes a different approach: its Classic sweats and jog pants are cut from the same 80 % cotton / 20 % polyester fleece at 280 g/m² and dyed in the same colour range, so a hoodie and a pair of joggers bought separately match as if they came in one box. Because each piece is priced as a basic, the finished set costs a fraction of a branded tracksuit — and you can mix sizes freely, which a boxed set never allows.
A set has two parts, and each has two sensible options:
Both bottoms cost €16.95 at Marmalade Co. and are frequently reduced to around €11.95. Read the Fruit of the Loom sweatpants guide for the full comparison.
| Set | Top | Bottom | Total (full price) | Total (sweatpants on sale) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Classic hoodie set | Hoodie €20.95 | Jog pants €16.95 | €37.90 | approx. €32.90 |
| Crewneck set | Crewneck €16.95 | Jog pants €16.95 | €33.90 | approx. €28.90 |
| Zip hoodie set | Zip hoodie €27.95 | Jog pants €16.95 | €44.90 | approx. €39.90 |
| Kids' set | Kids' hoodie €17.95 | Kids' jog pants approx. €11.95 | approx. €29.90 | — |
Add a third piece — a second pair of joggers or a T-shirt — and the 3-piece quantity discount of 5 % applies to the whole order; five pieces trigger 10 %.
Marmalade Co. lists ready-matched Fruit of the Loom sweat sets — hoodie and joggers in the same colour — with a price guarantee and DHL delivery in 2–3 business days.
See tracksuits at Marmalade Co. →The Classic line at 280 g/m² is the right choice for a tracksuit in most of Europe: warm enough for autumn and winter indoors, and for training outdoors in cool weather. If you live in a warmer climate or want a set for summer evenings, the Lightweight Hooded Sweat (240 g/m²) is a thinner top — but note that Fruit of the Loom does not make a matching lightweight jogger, so you would pair it with the standard 280 g/m² pants. For a full breakdown of the hooded models see our Fruit of the Loom hoodie guide.
Solid colours — black, navy, bottle green, red — match reliably between top and bottom because they are dyed to the same standard. Melange or heather shades (light grey, dark grey) are knitted from cotton mixed with polyester, and the exact tone can vary slightly between garment types and production batches. If a perfect match matters to you, buy top and bottom at the same time from the same retailer, and stick to solids or the most common grey melange. The best-selling tracksuit colours in Europe are black, navy and grey melange, followed by dark green.
The top follows chest size and the bottom follows waist size, so do not assume they are the same letter. A typical man with a 100 cm chest and 88 cm waist takes M in the hoodie and L in the joggers, for example. Tops are cut slightly roomy to layer over a T-shirt; joggers have a drawcord for adjustment. If you are between sizes on the top, go up for the oversized look or stay for a neater fit.
| Size | Hoodie / crewneck — chest | Jog pants — waist |
|---|---|---|
| S | 89–94 | 76–81 |
| M | 95–100 | 81–86 |
| L | 101–106 | 86–91 |
| XL | 107–112 | 91–97 |
| 2XL | 113–118 | 97–102 |
Kids' sets are sized by height (116, 128, 140, 152 cm). The complete charts and measuring instructions are in the Fruit of the Loom size guide.
Wash top and bottom together, at 30–40 °C and inside out, so both pieces fade at the same rate — the single most common reason a set stops matching is that the hoodie is washed twice as often as the joggers. Avoid hot tumble drying, which shrinks ribbing and flattens the fleece, and skip fabric softener on printed pieces. The 80/20 blend is forgiving; a Classic set treated this way lasts years.
Because every piece is a standard catalogue item, a Fruit of the Loom set is easy to reorder in matching colours year after year — a real advantage for sports clubs, school leavers and gyms outfitting staff. A small logo on the left chest of the hoodie and the left thigh of the joggers is the usual layout. The unit prices above make a full printed set realistic even for large groups; see our guide to team and class hoodies for ordering tips.
Hoodies, crewnecks and joggers in matching colours — compare the full range at the lowest verified prices in Europe.
See bestsellers →Not as a single catalogue product in Europe. Instead, the Classic hoodies, crewnecks and jog pants are made from the same 280 g/m² fleece in the same colours, so you combine them yourself. Some retailers, including Marmalade Co., list pre-matched sweat sets that pair a hoodie with joggers in one colour.
At Marmalade Co., the cheapest verified option, a hoodie (€20.95) plus sweatpants (€16.95) comes to €37.90 incl. VAT, or around €33 when the sweatpants are on sale at €11.95. A crewneck set is €33.90. Quantity discounts of 5–10 % apply from three pieces, plus €7 DHL shipping.
Solid colours such as black, navy and red match reliably because they are dyed to the same standard. Melange greys can vary slightly between garment types and batches, so buy both pieces at the same time from the same retailer and wash them together to keep them fading at the same rate.
The hoodie follows chest size (M = 95–100 cm) and the joggers follow waist size (M = approx. 81–86 cm), so they are not always the same letter. Check both measurements against the chart. The joggers' drawcord waist gives a few centimetres of adjustment either way.
At 280 g/m² with a brushed inside, the Classic set is warm enough for indoor winter wear, cool-weather training and autumn walks. For freezing outdoor conditions it works as a mid layer under a jacket. In hot climates a Lightweight top at 240 g/m² is more comfortable.
