- The sleeveless design offers focused core warmth while allowing for total freedom of movement, which is particularly beneficial for active roles.
- Integrated ribbed detailing on the neck, armholes, and hem provides a secure fit and prevents the garment from losing its shape after repeated use.
- A contrast inner neck strip provides a subtle, high-quality finish that speaks to the superior construction of the Brook Taverner range.
Design & Performance
Engineered for the demands of the modern workplace, this slipover is crafted from a blend of 60% cotton and 40% acrylic. This specific composition combines the natural breathability and soft hand-feel of cotton with the hard-wearing, pill-resistant properties of acrylic. The 12-gauge knit produces a fine, smooth surface that is substantial enough to provide warmth while remaining thin enough to layer comfortably under a suit jacket or blazer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This fine-knit garment serves as an excellent canvas for professional branding. For a truly superior finish, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team uses high-precision machinery to apply your company logo, creating a textured and durable mark of quality that enhances your professional image.
For organisations requiring larger or more vibrant designs, the smooth surface of the knit is also suitable for high-quality print applications. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been refining the art of garment customisation, and our in-house experts ensure that every application—whether embroidered or printed—meets our exacting standards for clarity and longevity.
Use Cases
The Detroit Slipover is ideally suited for front-of-house staff, corporate offices, and the hospitality sector. It is an excellent choice for teams who work in temperature-controlled environments, providing a professional middle layer that can be easily managed. It is equally effective for mobile professionals, such as estate agents or managers, who need to look their best while on the move.

Practical Advice
To achieve a streamlined look, we suggest pairing this slipover with a well-fitted formal shirt. Due to the fine-gauge knit, it is best to avoid heavy items in shirt pockets which might disrupt the drape of the garment. For those working in varied climates, this piece serves as a versatile seasonal bridge, providing warmth in winter and a professional top layer in the spring.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your knitwear, it is important to follow the recommended care routine. This garment is machine washable, which is essential for busy professionals, but it should be handled with care to avoid unnecessary wear on the fibres.
We recommend washing the slipover inside out to protect both the fabric face and any custom embroidery from abrasion. Reshaping the garment while damp and drying it flat will ensure the ribbed hem and armholes retain their elasticity, preventing the sagging that can occur with lesser-quality knitwear. Avoiding high heat during the drying process is vital to prevent shrinkage and maintain the vibrant colour of the fabric.
