Contrast panels400 g/m² / 11.8 oz per sq yd2 pieces5 colourwaysS to XXXL
The essentials: a two-piece set with contrast panels: a hooded sweatshirt with one vertical half in a different colour, and matching joggers with side panels. Large lion logo and LONSDALE LONDON on the chest. 5 colourways, 6 sizes from S to XXXL. €69, free delivery.
The panelling is there to be seen
A panelled set reads from a distance. It is the logic of a competition strip: two blocks of colour answering each other from top to bottom, so a silhouette stays identifiable in movement, including from behind or on video.
On this model the division is not horizontal but vertical — half the body, one sleeve, then the side panel of the joggers. The line therefore runs from collar to ankle when the two pieces are worn together.
That is what separates this set from a rest-day tracksuit, and what makes it a coherent choice for a club wanting a visual identity without going through custom printing.
The brand takes its name from the Lonsdale Belt. The full story is on the Lonsdale zip jacket page.
What is printed on the set
Sweatshirt: the lion emblem, LONSDALE in large serif capitals and LONDON on a band, printed large across the centre of the chest. The body is divided vertically into two shades, and the sleeves follow.
Joggers: a small lion logo at the top of the thigh, and contrasting side panels running down the legs.
Cut, fabric and finish
Hooded sweatshirt with drawcord and kangaroo pocket, ribbed cuffs and hem. Joggers with elasticated waist and drawcord, side pockets, cuffed ankle. Polyester at around 400 g/m² / 11.8 oz per sq yd.
Why the ankle is cuffed
Straight trousers that fall over the shoe get in the way of lateral movement and catch on ring ropes or on the base of a free-standing bag. That is why tracksuit bottoms in combat sports are almost all cuffed at the ankle.
The cuff clears the foot completely and leaves the stance visible — which matters when a coach is correcting a plant or a pivot.

Frequently asked questions
What are the contrast panels for?
Being seen. It is the logic of a competition strip: two blocks of colour answering each other so a silhouette stays identifiable in movement, from behind or on video. Here the division is vertical and runs from collar to ankle.
Is it suitable for a club?
Yes — the panelling gives a visual identity without custom printing, in five colourways and six sizes. If you want your own logo on the set, see the custom club training set.
What is the difference with the plain Lonsdale set?
The construction. This one has vertical contrast panels on both pieces; the plain set is single-colour and comes in men's and women's cuts across nine combinations.
Which size should I take?
Six sizes, S to XXXL. European cut — take your usual size.
How do you look after it?
Machine wash at 30 °C / 86 °F, inside out, no tumble dryer, and no iron directly on the print. Washing inside out is what protects the marking: it is the friction against the drum that dulls a print, more than the water.
