Product Overview
The Hi-Vis Cotton Comfort T-Shirt is a well-engineered garment designed for professionals who require high visibility without sacrificing personal comfort. This short-sleeved t-shirt utilises a specialised fabric blend that prioritises breathability and soft-touch performance, making it an ideal choice for active workdays. The vibrant orange colour and integrated HiVisTex tape ensure the wearer remains clearly visible in varied lighting conditions, fulfilling essential safety requirements while maintaining a smart appearance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This t-shirt is fully compatible with both print and embroidery customisation, allowing you to align your team's safety wear with your corporate identity. Embroidery is particularly effective for applying company logos or staff names to the chest, providing a crisp, professional finish that stands up well to frequent laundering. For those requiring larger, high-impact branding across the back, our printing service offers excellent clarity and bold colour reproduction.
Every customisation project is managed by our experienced in-house team at our Telford facility. MyWorkwear has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring that your branding is applied with technical precision to maintain the garment's integrity and safety standards.
Key Features
- Cotton Comfort Fabric: The 55% cotton and 45% polyester knit blend provides a soft feel against the skin while remaining durable enough for industrial environments.
- HiVisTex Reflective Tape: Premium reflective tape is applied to enhance visibility, ensuring you are seen by colleagues and vehicle operators.
- Breathable Construction: The knit fabric allows for efficient moisture management, keeping the wearer cool during physically demanding tasks.
- Short Sleeve Design: Offers maximum freedom of movement and ventilation for warmer weather or indoor site work.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a lightweight knit fabric, this t-shirt balances the natural comfort of cotton with the hard-wearing properties of polyester. The internal face of the fabric is predominantly cotton, which helps prevent irritation during long shifts, while the polyester outer ensures the garment retains its shape and colour over time. The HiVisTex tape is engineered to be flexible, meaning it moves with the wearer rather than restricting movement, which is a critical factor for comfort during dynamic physical labour.
Use Cases
This garment is specifically designed for workers in the construction, logistics, and roadside maintenance sectors. It is equally suited for warehouse staff who require high-visibility protection in environments where temperature control can be a challenge. The 4XL sizing ensures a comfortable fit for all members of your workforce.

Practical Advice
This t-shirt features a regular fit, providing enough room for ease of movement without being excessively baggy. For those working in colder environments, it serves as an excellent base layer beneath a high-visibility sweatshirt or jacket. We recommend checking our size guide to ensure the 4XL fit meets your specific requirements.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-visibility performance and structural integrity of this garment, proper care is essential. Following these instructions ensures the reflective tape remains effective and your custom branding stays intact for as long as possible.
We recommend a domestic wash at a maximum temperature of 40°C using a mild process. Using higher temperatures or aggressive cycles can degrade the adhesive backing of the reflective tape and cause premature wear to the fabric fibres. Please note that this garment has a maximum limit of 50 washes to remain compliant with safety standards.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this t-shirt. Bleaching agents will permanently damage the fluorescent orange pigment and significantly reduce the garment's visibility, rendering it unsafe for site use.
This item should not be tumble dried. High heat from a dryer can cause the reflective tape to crack or peel. Instead, we advise drip line drying. Furthermore, do not iron the garment, as direct heat can melt the reflective elements and damage any applied print or embroidery. Dry cleaning should also be avoided to prevent chemical damage to the specialised fabric.
