Product Overview
The SOL'S Ladies Imperial Heavy T-Shirt is a premium garment engineered for those who require a more substantial and durable base layer without sacrificing style. Unlike standard lightweight options, this heavyweight T-shirt provides a reassuring thickness and superior structural integrity. Crafted from 100% semi-combed ringspun cotton, it offers a smooth, high-quality finish that serves as an excellent foundation for professional branding while ensuring long-lasting comfort for the wearer.
Key Features
- The ribbed collar ensures the neckline retains its shape and elasticity, preventing the garment from looking worn after repeated use.
- An integrated taped neck covers the seam at the back of the neck, providing a smooth surface that prevents irritation during extended periods of wear.
- The inclusion of side seams ensures a feminine, contoured fit that follows the natural shape of the body, offering a more professional appearance than tubular-cut garments.
- Twin needle stitching on the sleeves and hem provides reinforced strength at the garment's edges, ensuring it can withstand the rigours of a daily work environment.
Design & Performance
Performance in workwear is often determined by the quality of the raw materials. By using semi-combed ringspun cotton, SOL'S has created a fabric that is significantly softer and more durable than standard carded cotton. The "heavyweight" designation refers to the dense weave of the fabric, which provides better opacity and a more formal drape. This density also means the T-shirt is less prone to pilling and can better withstand the mechanical stresses of a commercial laundry environment. The tailored side-seam construction is specifically designed for the female form, ensuring that the garment remains comfortable and flattering throughout the working day.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The dense, smooth surface of this heavyweight T-shirt makes it a superior choice for customisation. For companies looking for a sophisticated, executive finish, embroidery is highly recommended; the substantial fabric weight supports complex needlework and high-stitch-count logos without the puckering often seen on thinner materials. For those requiring large, vibrant designs or promotional messaging, the semi-combed cotton fibres provide an ideal surface for high-quality printing, ensuring sharp detail and excellent colour adhesion. Our in-house production team in Telford, drawing on expertise dating back to 1976, manages every aspect of the customisation process to ensure your brand is represented with precision.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for professional environments that demand a balance of practicality and a polished image. It is an ideal choice for hospitality uniforms, retail staff, or corporate event wear. Because of its heavyweight construction, it is also a dependable option for outdoor leisure activities or as a durable layer for tradespeople working in customer-facing roles where a smart appearance is essential.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please be aware that this specific model runs small in comparison to other brands. To ensure a comfortable and professional fit, we recommend reviewing the sizing guide carefully or requesting a sample. This is particularly important when ordering customised items, as garments that have been embroidered or printed cannot be returned due to sizing issues. For a cohesive team look, this T-shirt layers exceptionally well under knitwear or softshell jackets.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and appearance of your heavyweight T-shirt, we recommend following the specific washing instructions found on the internal care label. Adhering to the suggested temperatures is vital to prevent the natural cotton fibres from shrinking and to ensure the garment maintains its tailored shape over time.
Avoid using bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the cotton fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely. When ironing, please take care around any printed or embroidered areas to avoid damaging the customisation. Proper care will ensure your team continues to look professional and your branding remains vibrant for the life of the garment.
