Product Overview
The Finden & Hales Performance panel t-shirt is a technically proficient garment designed for those who require both movement and moisture management in their daily operations. Engineered from a lightweight polyester birdseye mesh, this t-shirt is specifically built to handle the physical demands of active work environments without compromising on a professional aesthetic.
With its contrast side panels and distinctive piping, the LV240 offers a more structured look than a standard plain t-shirt, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to unify their team's appearance while ensuring individual comfort during long shifts.
Key Features
- Permanent Wicking Fabric: The polyester mesh is designed to actively pull moisture away from the skin, ensuring the wearer remains dry and comfortable even during strenuous activity.
- Raglan Sleeve Construction: Unlike standard set-in sleeves, the raglan design extends in one piece to the collar, providing a greater range of motion for the arms and reducing friction at the shoulder.
- Contrast Side Panels with Piping: These decorative elements provide a sharp, athletic silhouette that frames the body, ensuring your team looks coordinated and professional.
- Crew Neck Design: The classic crew neck offers a secure and comfortable fit that retains its shape throughout the working day.
Design & Performance
The core of this garment lies in its 100% polyester birdseye mesh construction. This fabric is specifically chosen for its breathability; the tiny perforations in the weave allow air to circulate freely around the body. Because it is a permanent wicking fabric, these performance characteristics are inherent to the fibres themselves and will not wash out over time.
The lightweight nature of the fabric makes it almost imperceptible during wear, which is a significant advantage for staff who are constantly on the move. The raglan sleeves further enhance this by removing the traditional shoulder seam, which can often be a point of irritation when wearing backpacks or carrying heavy loads.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This performance t-shirt is compatible with both print and embroidery, and choosing the right method depends on your branding requirements. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring your logo is applied with absolute precision.
Embroidery is often the preferred choice for a superior, long-lasting finish, particularly for smaller company logos or individual names on the chest. It provides a texture and depth that signals quality. However, for larger, more vibrant graphics across the back or chest, print is an exceptional alternative. It remains lightweight and flexible, complementing the technical nature of the polyester fabric without adding unnecessary bulk.
Use Cases
This garment is ideally suited for team-based activities and active work roles. It is a staple for warehouse staff, delivery personnel, and event teams who need to remain cool under pressure. Furthermore, its athletic styling makes it a popular choice for sports clubs and fitness instructors who require a uniform that can keep up with their physical output.

Practical Advice
The LV240 features a contemporary fit and is available in a broad size range from XS to 3XL. For those working in cooler environments, this t-shirt serves as an excellent base layer that can be comfortably worn under a fleece or softshell jacket. When choosing your size, refer to the chest measurements provided to ensure the wicking properties can function effectively against the skin.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance standards of the wicking fabric and ensure your custom branding remains intact, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C on a synthetic cycle. High temperatures can damage the polyester fibres and degrade the adhesive used in certain print processes.
Dark colours should always be washed separately to prevent any colour transfer onto lighter panels or embroidery threads. Avoiding bleach is essential, as harsh chemicals will break down the fabric's structure and dull the vibrancy of the contrast piping.
When it comes to drying, a low-temperature tumble dry is acceptable, though air drying is preferable for the longevity of the garment. If ironing is required, use a cool setting on the reverse of the fabric to avoid direct contact with any printed or embroidered logos, which could otherwise melt or distort.
