Design & Performance
Constructed from a technical blend of 97% cotton and 3% elastane, the Austin Chino Skirt is engineered for both comfort and durability. The high cotton content provides a breathable, soft-to-the-touch finish that is essential for comfort during long shifts. This is complemented by the addition of elastane, which provides a subtle stretch. This flexibility is vital in a professional setting, as it allows for a full range of movement without the fabric losing its shape or becoming restrictive.
The chino weave is inherently robust, offering better resistance to general wear and tear than lighter formal fabrics. This makes it an excellent choice for staff who are constantly on the move, ensuring the garment remains looking professional even after extensive use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This skirt is well-suited for both print and embroidery customisation, allowing you to align your team's appearance with your brand identity. For a truly professional finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos or individual names. Our in-house team uses high-quality threads that create a durable, textured logo that stands up to the rigours of daily work and frequent laundering.
If your branding requires a larger or more intricate design, our printing services provide a sharp, vibrant finish. All customisation is handled by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting workwear branding since 1976, ensuring your logo is applied with technical precision.
Use Cases
The Austin Chino Skirt is an ideal choice for female employees in front-of-house hospitality, corporate reception, and retail management. Its combination of comfort and a polished aesthetic makes it particularly suitable for those who need to maintain a professional appearance while performing active tasks.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, we recommend choosing your standard UK size. The elastane content provides a small amount of give, ensuring a comfortable fit around the waist and hips. To complete a professional look, pair this skirt with a tucked-in cotton blouse or a smart polo shirt for a more relaxed yet competent appearance.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your Austin Chino Skirt, it is essential to follow the correct care procedures. The garment is machine washable, which is the most effective way to remove daily soilage while keeping the cotton fibres fresh and the elastane resilient.
We advise against using strong bleaching agents, as these can break down the natural cotton fibres and damage the integrity of the elastane, leading to a loss of shape. Similarly, following the recommended temperature settings will prevent unnecessary shrinkage and ensure that any custom embroidery or print remains vibrant and securely attached for the life of the garment.
