The Kustom Kit KK141 is a sophisticated short-sleeved shirt designed for professionals who require a sharp, tailored silhouette without compromising on daily comfort. This poplin shirt features a modern semi-cutaway collar and a refined tailored fit, making it a versatile staple for any business wardrobe.

Design & Performance
Constructed from a 65% polyester and 35% cotton poplin blend, this shirt is engineered for performance. The polyester content provides excellent durability and resistance to fading, while the cotton ensures the fabric remains breathable and soft against the skin. As a lightweight fabric, it is particularly well-suited for high-activity roles or for use in warmer indoor environments where temperature regulation is essential for productivity.
The tailored fit of the KK141 follows the contours of the body more closely than a traditional cut, providing a streamlined and modern professional image. Every detail, from the single-stitched armholes to the woven back neck label, has been considered to ensure the garment feels as high-quality as it looks.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, tight weave of this poplin fabric provides an exceptional surface for both print and embroidery. For a premium, long-lasting finish that communicates authority, we recommend our high-quality embroidery service for your company logo or staff names. Embroidery offers a textured, professional dimension that withstands repeated washing.
For larger, more vibrant designs that need to capture attention, our print services offer sharp detail and bold colour reproduction. Our in-house team in Telford has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring that every piece of workwear we produce reflects the high standards of your business.
Use Cases
This tailored shirt is an ideal choice for front-of-house hospitality staff, corporate office teams, and retail professionals. Its modern cut makes it particularly effective for customer-facing roles where a sharp, approachable image is necessary. It is also well-suited for events or trade shows where a unified and professional team appearance is required.

Practical Advice
As this is a tailored-fit garment, it is designed to sit closer to the body than a standard fit shirt. If you prefer a more relaxed feel or are between sizes, you may wish to consider selecting the next size up. The extensive size range, from 13.5" to 23", ensures we can provide a consistent look for your entire workforce.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the professional appearance of your tailored shirt requires adherence to specific care guidelines. We recommend a machine wash at 40°C using a synthetic cycle to remove dirt effectively without compromising the integrity of the fabric or the custom branding.
Do not use bleach, as these harsh chemicals will break down the polyester-cotton fibres and cause the fabric to lose its colour and strength over time. To ensure the shirt retains its shape and fit, do not tumble dry. Instead, reshape the garment while damp and allow it to air dry naturally, which also helps the easy-iron finish perform at its best.
Use a warm iron to remove any remaining creases, taking care not to use excessive heat which can damage the polyester fibres. Do not dry clean the garment, as the chemical processes involved can be detrimental to both the poplin weave and any applied customisation.
