Design & Performance
Constructed from a single jersey fabric, this T-shirt is primarily composed of 100% cotton, though the Heather Grey variant includes a small percentage of viscose to achieve its specific texture. The single jersey knit provides a smooth, flat surface that feels soft against the skin and offers excellent breathability for temperature regulation. This midweight fabric is substantial enough to feel durable on the job while remaining light enough to prevent overheating during physical tasks.
The build quality is further enhanced by the twin-needle stitching at the hem and sleeves, which provides additional durability where it is needed most. With a size range extending from XS to 5XL, this garment is designed to provide a consistent professional appearance for entire teams, regardless of stature.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of the single jersey fabric makes the BY090 particularly well-suited for customisation. For a professional and long-lasting finish, embroidery is an excellent choice for company logos and staff names, providing a textured, premium look that withstands frequent laundering.
If your branding requires large, bold designs or high-contrast graphics, the fabric is also ideal for print applications. Our in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment customisation since 1976, handles every order to ensure your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
This T-shirt is a versatile choice for various sectors, including retail, logistics, and event management. Its clean design makes it equally suitable as a standalone top in warmer weather or as a comfortable base layer under a sweatshirt or jacket during the winter months. Because it is available in plus sizes up to 5XL, it is an inclusive option for businesses with diverse workforces.

Practical Advice
When selecting sizes for your team, please note that the fit is designed to be classic and comfortable. For those working in active roles, the set-in sleeves provide ample room for movement. If you are layering this garment under a more structured jacket, the lightweight crewneck ensures a tidy appearance at the collar.
Caring for your product
To maintain the integrity of the cotton fibres and ensure your custom branding remains vibrant, we recommend a gentle machine wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can cause the fabric to age prematurely and may affect the adhesion of printed designs.
The garment should always be washed and ironed inside out. This simple step protects the outer surface from the abrasive action of the washing machine and prevents direct heat from damaging any embroidery or print work.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will degrade the fabric and cause significant colour loss. We also advise against tumble drying; allowing the garment to air dry naturally is the best way to prevent shrinkage. If ironing is necessary, use a low-temperature setting and avoid direct contact with any customised areas. This garment is not suitable for dry cleaning.
