Product Overview
The Henbury Short Sleeve Classic Oxford Shirt is a fundamental component of a professional corporate wardrobe, offering a silhouette that remains consistently in style.

Engineered from a substantial, heavyweight weave, it offers a level of durability that ensures the shirt performs reliably day after day while maintaining its professional integrity.
Key Features
- Wrinkle-resistant finish: This treatment ensures the shirt retains its crisp, freshly-pressed appearance throughout long shifts, reducing the need for intensive maintenance.
- Button-down collar: Provides a secure and tidy look, preventing the collar from spreading and maintaining a sharp aesthetic without the need for additional accessories.
- Left breast pocket: A practical addition that offers convenient storage for essential items such as pens, small notebooks, or identification.
- Back yoke with centre box pleat: This design feature allows for greater ease of movement across the shoulders and back, which is essential for comfort during active working hours.
- Coordinated button detailing: Features pearlised buttons on blue colour options and dyed-to-match buttons on all others for a cohesive and high-quality finish.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a blend of 77% cotton and 23% polyester, this shirt strikes the ideal balance between natural breathability and modern performance. The cotton content ensures comfort against the skin, while the polyester adds necessary strength and resilience to the fabric. The heavyweight weave provides a sturdy feel that distinguishes it from lighter, less durable alternatives, making it a dependable choice for those who require their workwear to withstand frequent laundering and wear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This Oxford shirt serves as an excellent canvas for customisation. For companies seeking a traditional and high-end professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for logos and staff names. The heavyweight fabric supports the stitching perfectly, ensuring the design remains stable and clear. If your branding involves larger or more complex designs, our high-quality printing techniques offer a bold and vibrant alternative. All customisation is handled in-house by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting these techniques since MyWorkwear was established in 1976.
Use Cases
This shirt is an ideal choice for front-of-house hospitality staff, corporate office environments, and customer-facing trade professionals. The short-sleeve design makes it particularly suitable for indoor environments or warmer weather where maintaining a professional standard is required without overheating.

Practical Advice
The Henbury Classic Oxford Shirt is available in a generous size range from Small up to 4XL. As this is a classic fit, it offers a more relaxed cut through the body compared to slim-fit alternatives. We recommend checking the sizing guide to ensure the correct fit for your team, particularly when layering under a sweater or blazer in cooler conditions.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance wrinkle-resistant finish and the overall structure of the shirt, we recommend a synthetic wash at 40°C. Using a consistent temperature ensures that the fabric's integrity is preserved and the garment continues to look its best over time.
It is important to avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the cotton-polyester fibres and lead to premature wear and discolouration. When drying, we suggest a low tumble dry setting and avoiding direct heat or sunlight, which can cause the fabric to become brittle or lose its shape.
For ironing, use a medium 'two-dot' setting on the reverse of the garment. This protects the outer finish of the fabric. Crucially, do not iron directly over any custom print or embroidery, as the intense heat can damage the branding and compromise the quality of the finish.
