Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Olympus Classic Fit Pilot Shirt is a cornerstone of professional uniform attire, designed for those who require a combination of authority and everyday functionality. This short-sleeve shirt is tailored with a classic fit, offering a professional silhouette that does not compromise on comfort. Its design draws from traditional aviation aesthetics, making it an ideal choice for roles that demand a sharp, disciplined appearance throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Twin chest pockets with button-down flaps provide secure storage for essential items while maintaining the symmetrical, formal look required of a pilot-style shirt.
- An integrated pen holder ensures that you have immediate access to writing tools, a small but vital detail for administrative or navigational tasks.
- Functional epaulettes on the shoulders allow for the easy attachment of rank slides or identification, reinforcing a professional uniform standard.
- The classic fit provides a generous cut through the chest and waist, ensuring the wearer has a full range of motion without the fabric pulling or restricting movement.
Design & Performance
Engineered from a premium blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this shirt is designed to withstand the rigours of frequent wear. The polyester content provides excellent wrinkle resistance and durability, ensuring the shirt looks crisp even after several hours of service. Meanwhile, the cotton component ensures the fabric remains breathable and comfortable against the skin. This lightweight fabric is particularly well-suited for active professionals or those working in warmer environments where maintaining a cool temperature is essential for performance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To achieve a superior professional finish, we highly recommend embroidery for the Olympus Pilot Shirt. Adding a company logo or individual name via embroidery creates a textured, high-quality appearance that aligns perfectly with the shirt's structured design. For organisations requiring larger, high-impact branding, our printing services provide a sharp and clear alternative. Every customisation is handled by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, ensuring your brand is represented with absolute precision.
Use Cases
This shirt is the standard choice for aviation professionals, maritime officers, and security personnel. It is also an excellent option for corporate hospitality teams and transport staff who require a uniform that is both practical and commands respect.

Practical Advice
The classic fit of this garment is designed for comfort; if you prefer a more fitted look, you may wish to review the chest measurements carefully. The short-sleeve design makes it an excellent base for layering under a uniform jacket or jumper during transitions between different climates.
Caring for your product
To maintain the crisp white finish and the integrity of any custom embroidery, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes daily grime without causing undue stress to the fabric fibres or the branding.
Avoid using bleach, as this can weaken the polyester-cotton blend and lead to a loss of structural integrity over time. We suggest reshaping the garment while damp and hanging it to dry to minimise the need for intensive ironing, which helps preserve the smooth surface of the fabric.
