Product Overview
The Hi-Vis Cotton Comfort T-Shirt is a well-engineered solution for professionals who require high visibility without sacrificing the natural feel of cotton. By utilising a specialised Cotton Comfort fabric, this t-shirt provides a soft touch against the skin while maintaining the technical requirements of safety workwear. It is designed to be worn during long shifts where temperature regulation and visibility are paramount for safety and efficiency.
Key Features
- The Cotton Comfort fabric blend ensures a lightweight and breathable experience, significantly reducing the risk of overheating during physical exertion in demanding environments.
- An integrated taped neck seam provides additional structure and prevents irritation, ensuring the garment remains comfortable even after hours of continuous wear.
- Strategic placement of reflective tape offers enhanced visibility, ensuring you remain conspicuous to colleagues and vehicle operators in low-light or hazardous conditions.
- The short sleeve design allows for a maximum range of movement, making it an essential garment for active roles that require physical flexibility.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a blend of 55% cotton and 45% polyester knit, this garment offers a superior balance of comfort and utility. The high cotton content is designed to sit against the skin for a soft feel, while the polyester outer ensures the shirt retains its shape and holds its vibrant orange high-visibility pigment through repeated use. This fabric choice is particularly effective for moisture management, as the breathable knit allows air to circulate freely around the body. The reflective tape is applied with precision to ensure it does not restrict the natural stretch of the fabric, maintaining the garment's ergonomic fit without compromising safety.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This hi-vis t-shirt serves as an excellent canvas for your corporate identity. At MyWorkwear, we offer both print and embroidery services, processed by our expert in-house team in Telford. For a traditional and highly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for company logos and staff names on the chest. If you require large, bold branding that needs to stand out from a distance, our high-quality printing process ensures your design remains clear and durable. Our team, established in 1976, has decades of experience in ensuring your branding complements the safety features of the garment rather than compromising its protective visibility.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for professionals working in construction, logistics, and warehouse management where visibility is mandatory. It is also an ideal choice for outdoor site inspections or any environment where a heavy jacket would be impractical. Its breathable nature makes it especially useful during the summer months or in temperature-controlled indoor environments where physical activity is high.

Practical Advice
This t-shirt is designed for a comfortable, standard fit. If you intend to wear this as a base layer under a sweatshirt or jacket, we recommend selecting your usual size. For those who prefer a looser fit for improved airflow in hot conditions, you might consider selecting a larger size. Always ensure that your choice of customisation does not obscure the reflective tape to remain fully compliant with safety standards.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of your safety wear is essential for long-term performance and compliance. We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a mild process. Washing at higher temperatures or using aggressive cycles can prematurely degrade the reflective tape and affect the garment's high-visibility properties.
To preserve the fabric and the reflective elements, do not use bleach. Bleaching agents will cause the fluorescent pigment to fade and will damage the adhesive bond of the reflective tape. Similarly, this garment should not be tumble dried. We advise drip line drying to prevent heat-related shrinkage and to maintain the garment's original shape.
Do not iron this t-shirt. Direct heat from an iron can melt the reflective tape and damage the polyester fibres. Furthermore, dry cleaning should be avoided as the chemicals used can strip the high-visibility finish from the fabric. Please note that this garment has a maximum service life of 50 washes; exceeding this limit may result in the visibility properties falling below safety standards.
