Product Overview
The Henbury Long sleeve cotton-feel Coolplus shirt represents a significant advancement in functional formalwear. It offers the sophisticated aesthetic of a traditional cotton shirt while leveraging the high-performance capabilities of modern technical fabrics. Designed for professionals who require a sharp appearance throughout a demanding working day, this shirt ensures comfort is never sacrificed for style, providing a permanent wicking solution that keeps the wearer cool and dry.
Key Features
- Coolplus Permanent Wicking Fabric: This advanced material actively draws moisture away from the skin, ensuring the wearer remains dry and comfortable in high-pressure or warm environments.
- Wrinkle-Resistant Finish: The fabric is engineered to resist creasing, meaning you maintain a crisp, professional appearance from your first meeting until your last, with minimal maintenance required.
- Button-Down Collar: This feature provides a secure, tidy look, preventing the collar from splaying and ensuring a consistent silhouette even without a tie.
- Adjustable Cuffs: Dual-button cuffs allow for a precise fit around the wrist, accommodating different preferences and watch styles.
- Tag-Free Design: By removing the physical neck tag, Henbury has eliminated a common source of irritation, enhancing the overall comfort of the garment during long shifts.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% Coolplus polyester, this shirt is remarkably lightweight yet durable. The standout feature is its "cotton hand feel"; it mimics the soft texture of natural fibres while providing the superior moisture management and durability of a synthetic technical garment. The regular fit and back yoke provide ample room for movement without appearing baggy, while the eight self-coloured pearlised buttons on the front placket add a touch of understated elegance. Furthermore, the garment is produced under WRAP and Amfori BSCI accreditations, ensuring that your workwear meets rigorous ethical and social standards during manufacture.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth finish of the Coolplus fabric makes it an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. For a formal corporate identity, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team, operating since 1976, can apply intricate logos and staff names with high-precision machinery, resulting in a durable and prestigious finish that withstands regular laundering. Alternatively, for promotional events or larger graphic requirements, our printing processes offer vibrant, high-impact results that adhere perfectly to the polyester fibres, ensuring your brand stands out.
Use Cases
This shirt is an ideal choice for the hospitality industry, where staff must remain cool under pressure while maintaining a formal aesthetic. It is equally suited for office environments, corporate events, or as part of a high-end service uniform where daily laundering and a quick turnaround are required.

Practical Advice
The shirt is available in a broad size range from XS to 4XL, ensuring a consistent look across a diverse workforce. Due to its lightweight nature, it layers exceptionally well under knitwear or tailored jackets without adding unnecessary bulk. We recommend reviewing the specific size guide to ensure the best possible fit for your team members.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance wicking properties and the professional finish of this shirt, we recommend a synthetic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove everyday grime without placing undue stress on the polyester fibres, preserving the garment's life.
Avoid the use of bleach or dry cleaning, as these harsh chemical processes can degrade the technical fabric and dull the appearance of your customised branding. When drying, use a low tumble dry setting or air dry to prevent heat damage and shrinkage.
If ironing is required, use a cool setting. It is also vital to avoid fabric softeners; these can coat the fibres and clog the moisture-wicking pores, effectively neutralising the primary benefit of the Coolplus technology. Always wash dark colours separately to prevent any risk of dye migration onto lighter garments.
