Product Overview
The Kustom Kit Workforce short-sleeved shirt is a fundamental component for any professional wardrobe. Engineered as a classic fit garment, this shirt utilizes a polycotton poplin fabric that balances a sharp appearance with the practical requirements of a busy working day. It is designed to be versatile, serving as a reliable canvas for corporate branding while ensuring the wearer remains comfortable and presentable from the start of the shift to the end.
Key Features
- Fused stand-up button-down collar: Provides a consistently crisp and professional look that maintains its shape even under heavy use.
- Optional chest pocket: Offers flexibility for different uniform requirements, allowing for added utility or a cleaner aesthetic as preferred.
- Easy iron finish: Specifically treated to reduce creases, ensuring that maintaining a professional appearance requires minimal effort.
- Double-stitched side and sleeve seams: Reinforced construction throughout the garment increases durability and prevents premature wear at high-stress points.
- Back pleats and rounded hem: These design elements allow for a greater range of movement and ensure the shirt remains neatly tucked throughout the day.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this shirt offers the breathable comfort of natural fibres alongside the hard-wearing resilience of synthetic materials. The poplin weave results in a lightweight fabric that is both smooth to the touch and resistant to the rigours of daily laundering. The inclusion of a single-stitched yoke and armhole seams demonstrates a commitment to traditional tailoring techniques, while the double-stitched side seams provide the structural integrity required for modern workwear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Kustom Kit Workforce shirt is an exceptional candidate for customisation. For those seeking a traditional and high-end finish, embroidery is highly recommended for company logos on the chest or collar. The stable poplin weave supports intricate needlework without puckering, providing a result that lasts the lifetime of the garment.
Alternatively, for larger promotional designs or bold branding across the back, our high-quality print processes are equally effective. All customisation is handled in-house by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting these techniques since 1976 to ensure your brand is represented with absolute precision.
Use Cases
This shirt is an ideal choice for hospitality staff, retail teams, and corporate office environments where a consistent, professional appearance is non-negotiable. Its robust construction also makes it suitable for customer-facing tradespeople who require a smart alternative to a standard polo shirt without sacrificing durability.

Practical Advice
The classic fit is designed to be generous through the chest and waist to allow for ease of movement. If you prefer a more tailored silhouette, you may wish to consider the specific chest measurements provided in our sizing guide, which ranges from Small to 3XL. This shirt layers effectively under jumpers or blazers for a versatile year-round uniform solution.
Caring for your product
To ensure your shirt and its custom branding remain in peak condition, proper maintenance is essential. We recommend a machine wash at 40°C using a delicate cycle (indicated by the bar under the wash symbol). This temperature is sufficient to remove daily grime while protecting the polyester fibres from heat damage.
Bleaching agents must be avoided at all costs. Bleach will degrade the fabric's structural integrity and cause significant discolouration to both the shirt and any embroidery or print applied to it.
Do not tumble dry this garment. High heat from a dryer can lead to shrinkage and may cause embroidery threads to tighten or print designs to crack. Instead, hang the shirt to air dry. For a professional finish, use a two-dot (medium heat) iron while the garment is slightly damp to easily remove any remaining creases without scorching the material.
