Product Overview
The Kariban Ladies' short-sleeved V-neck T-shirt is a refined essential designed for those who require a professional appearance without sacrificing comfort. Crafted from high-quality combed cotton that has undergone an enzyme wash, this garment offers a notably soft hand feel, making it suitable for all-day wear in demanding environments. The feminine fit provides a tailored silhouette that remains practical for various roles, while the V-neckline adds a touch of modern styling to the traditional workwear wardrobe.
Key Features
Enzyme-Washed Cotton: This treatment ensures the fabric is exceptionally soft against the skin, reducing irritation during long shifts.
Feminine Tailored Fit: Designed to provide a more contoured shape than standard unisex options, ensuring your team maintains a polished silhouette.
Twin-Needle Finishing: Applied to the cuffs and hem, this robust stitching method prevents fraying and ensures the T-shirt maintains its shape after repeated laundering.
Integrated Neck Tape: Contrast taping provides extra reinforcement at a high-stress point, preventing the neckline from stretching or losing its form over time.
Design & Performance
Constructed as a medium-weight garment, this T-shirt strikes a calculated balance between breathability and durability. The use of 100% combed cotton—with a slight viscose blend for the Oxford Grey variant—provides a natural stretch and superior comfort throughout the working day. The garment's performance is further backed by OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and BSCI certifications, ensuring that the textiles are safe for the wearer and produced under ethical conditions. The twin-needle stitching is not merely an aesthetic choice; it is a structural necessity that allows the garment to withstand the rigours of daily work life and frequent cleaning.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of the enzyme-washed cotton makes this T-shirt an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. For a professional appearance, embroidery is recommended for company logos or staff names, offering a textured, high-quality finish that resists wear. Alternatively, screen or digital printing is ideal for larger, bold promotional graphics where clarity and vibrancy are paramount. Our in-house team in Telford, established in 1976, utilises decades of expertise to ensure your branding is applied with absolute precision, helping your business present a superior finish.
Use Cases
This versatile T-shirt is an ideal choice for customer-facing roles in retail, hospitality, or corporate events where a unified and professional team appearance is required. It also serves as a comfortable base layer for outdoor workers or as a standalone top for indoor environments where temperature regulation is key.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please note that this is a fitted garment designed for a feminine silhouette. If you prefer a more relaxed or looser fit, we recommend considering one size larger than your usual choice. It layers exceptionally well under knitwear or softshell jackets, making it a flexible addition to any uniform programme throughout the year.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and appearance of your T-shirt, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum of 30°C. Washing at this temperature helps preserve the natural cotton fibres and prevents the custom branding from fading prematurely.
Do not use bleach, as this will degrade the cotton fibres and cause significant discolouration to both the garment and your embroidered or printed logo. For best results, avoid tumble drying; allowing the T-shirt to air dry naturally prevents shrinkage and ensures the fit remains consistent over the lifespan of the product.
When ironing, use a mild heat setting not exceeding 110°C. This protects the enzyme-washed finish and prevents any applied print from heat damage. Finally, do not dry clean this garment, as the harsh chemicals used in that process can compromise the fabric's soft hand feel and overall durability.
