Product Overview
The Kustom Kit Workforce long-sleeved shirt is a cornerstone of professional attire, designed to balance aesthetic appeal with the functional rigours of a busy working day. Crafted from a versatile polycotton poplin, this classic fit garment is engineered to help your team maintain a sharp, consistent appearance across various sectors. Its construction prioritises both comfort and longevity, ensuring that it remains a reliable part of your workwear rotation.
Key Features
Fused stand-up button-down collar: This provides a structured and permanent shape that remains crisp throughout the day, ensuring a professional silhouette.
Easy iron finish: The fabric is specifically treated to resist deep creasing, allowing for a professional look with significantly less maintenance effort after washing.
Optional chest pocket: Offers the flexibility to tailor the shirt's utility to your specific requirements, whether you need storage for essential items or prefer a cleaner, minimalist aesthetic.
Reinforced stitching: Featuring single-stitched yoke and armhole seams alongside double-stitched side and sleeve seams, this shirt is built to withstand the mechanical stress of daily wear.
Design & Performance
The fabric composition of 65% polyester and 35% cotton strikes an ideal balance between performance and comfort. The polyester content provides essential durability and colour retention, while the cotton ensures the fabric remains breathable against the skin. This lightweight fabric is particularly well-suited for indoor environments or as a base layer in cooler climates. The addition of two pleats at the back and a rounded hem ensures a comfortable fit that allows for a full range of movement without the garment becoming untucked or restrictive.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This Workforce shirt serves as an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery, with all customisation handled by our expert in-house team in Telford. For a traditional and authoritative look, we recommend embroidery for company logos and individual names; our long-standing expertise ensures that every stitch is placed with precision to maintain the garment's professional integrity. If your branding requires larger, more vibrant graphics, our high-quality printing processes provide a bold finish that is particularly effective for promotional events or high-traffic retail environments.
Use Cases
Given its vibrant colour options and professional cut, this shirt is perfectly suited for front-of-house staff in the hospitality industry, corporate office teams, or trade professionals who need to maintain a smart appearance during client-facing consultations. Its robust construction also makes it a practical choice for the transport and logistics sectors where a formal appearance must be matched by garment durability.

Practical Advice
The classic fit provides a generous cut through the chest and waist, allowing for ease of movement and comfort during long shifts. We recommend reviewing the size guide carefully, as the range extends from S to 3XL to accommodate various team requirements. This shirt pairs effectively with smart trousers and can be layered under a v-neck sweatshirt for a coordinated, professional ensemble in cooler weather.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity of the fused collar and the vibrancy of the fabric, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. This temperature effectively removes daily grime without causing undue stress to the polycotton fibres.
Do not use bleach, as these harsh chemicals will degrade the synthetic fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely, undermining your professional appearance. Similarly, this garment should not be dry cleaned, as the chemical processes can be too aggressive for the poplin weave.
We advise against tumble drying this shirt. Air drying is the most effective way to prevent shrinkage and to protect any custom embroidery or print from heat damage. For the best result, use a two-dot iron (medium heat) while the garment is slightly damp to easily remove any remaining creases and restore the sharp lines of the button-down collar.
