Product Overview
The Hermes Classic Fit Pilot Shirt from Brook Taverner represents a standard in professional uniforming, specifically designed for those who require a combination of authority and functionality.

Design & Performance
Engineered from a premium blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this shirt balances the breathability of natural fibres with the resilience of synthetic materials. The result is a lightweight fabric that feels comfortable against the skin while remaining resistant to the rigours of daily wear and repeated laundering.
The classic fit is designed to accommodate a variety of body types, providing enough room for movement without appearing oversized. This ensures that the wearer remains comfortable whether seated in a cockpit or standing at a security post. The fabric's composition also helps to minimise creasing, ensuring you look as professional at the end of your shift as you did at the start.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
For a superior professional finish, we recommend embroidery for the Hermes Pilot Shirt. This method is particularly effective for adding company logos or individual names above the chest pockets, providing a durable and textured appearance that withstands frequent washing and heavy use.
Should your branding require larger or more complex graphics, our high-definition print services offer a crisp and vibrant alternative. Our Telford-based team has been perfecting these customisation techniques since 1976, ensuring that every garment leaving our facility meets our exacting standards for quality and precision.
Use Cases
This shirt is specifically tailored for the aviation and transport sectors, but its utility extends to security personnel and corporate staff who require a disciplined, uniform look. It is an ideal choice for any environment where professional identity and practical utility must go hand in hand, from the flight deck to the front of house.

Practical Advice
As this is a classic fit garment, it is designed with a more generous cut than slim-fit alternatives. We recommend measuring your collar size accurately to ensure the shirt provides a comfortable fit when worn with a tie. For those working in cooler environments, the lightweight fabric makes it an excellent base layer under a uniform jumper or blazer.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of the fabric, this shirt is designed to be machine washable at 40 degrees. Washing at this temperature effectively removes everyday dirt and perspiration while preventing the premature degradation of the polyester-cotton fibres.
Consistent care following these guidelines will ensure the garment retains its shape and the crisp white finish remains bright. Avoiding excessively high temperatures during washing and drying will help prevent fabric shrinkage and preserve the quality of any custom embroidery or print applied to the shirt.
