Product Overview
The Henbury HB511 Women's classic long sleeve Oxford shirt is a foundational piece for any professional corporate wardrobe. Constructed with a substantial, heavyweight weave, this garment offers a structured silhouette that maintains its integrity throughout the working day. Designed specifically for the female form, it combines a traditional aesthetic with modern tailoring to ensure your team presents a consistent and professional image.
Key Features
Wrinkle-resistant finish: This technical treatment ensures the fabric remains crisp and smooth, significantly reducing time spent on maintenance while keeping you looking professional even after hours of wear.
Shaped side seams and scooped hem: These design elements provide a tailored, feminine fit that contours to the body without being restrictive, looking equally refined when tucked in or worn loose.
Cotton-rich fabric: The blend of cotton and polyester provides the natural breathability and soft handle of cotton alongside the enhanced durability and faster drying times associated with polyester.
Adjustable cuffs: These allow the wearer to customise the fit around the wrist, accommodating different preferences and ensuring comfort throughout the day.
Design & Performance
This shirt is engineered using a heavyweight Oxford weave, providing a sturdy and premium feel that distinguishes it from lighter, less durable alternatives. The fabric choice is deliberate, offering a garment that is capable of functioning in a variety of environments, from the boardroom to active hospitality roles. The shaped side seams ensure a clean, modern profile, avoiding the boxy fit often found in unisex alternatives.
Performance is at the heart of the HB511. The inclusion of pearlised buttons on the blue options and dyed-to-match buttons on others demonstrates an attention to detail that elevates the garment's overall appearance. The scooped hem is designed to stay securely in place when tucked into trousers or a skirt, maintaining a sharp look during movement.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The heavyweight nature of this Oxford fabric makes it an ideal candidate for customisation. For those seeking a superior finish, embroidery is highly recommended. Our Telford-based experts can apply detailed logos and staff names directly onto the fabric, creating a durable and high-quality appearance that withstands frequent washing.
For larger, more graphic branding requirements, this shirt also takes print exceptionally well. Whether you require subtle branding or bold identification, our in-house team—established in 1976—oversees the entire process to ensure your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
This shirt is perfectly suited for corporate office environments, hospitality front-of-house teams, and retail staff. Its classic style and wide size range, from XS up to 4XL, make it a versatile choice for businesses of all sizes looking to implement a unified and professional dress code.

Practical Advice
The HB511 features a tailored fit with shaped side seams. We recommend reviewing the size guide carefully to ensure a comfortable fit across the bust and shoulders. Because this is a medium-to-heavyweight fabric, it layers exceptionally well under knitwear or a tailored blazer for a professional look in cooler climates.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your shirt, we recommend a synthetic wash at 40°C. This temperature effectively cleans the cotton-rich fibres without causing unnecessary thermal stress, which helps to preserve the wrinkle-resistant finish.
It is essential to wash dark colours separately to avoid dye migration. Do not use bleach, as this will weaken the fabric structure and cause significant discolouration. When drying, keep the garment away from direct heat and sunlight, which can cause the fabric to become brittle or fade over time.
When ironing, use a medium setting (two dots) and iron on the reverse side of the garment. Crucially, do not iron directly onto any printed or embroidered decoration, as the heat can damage the customisation and compromise the professional appearance of the shirt.
