Product Overview
The SOL'S Sporty Long Sleeve Performance T-Shirt is a well-engineered garment designed specifically for high-intensity environments and active roles. Built from a lightweight, 100% polyester textured fabric, it prioritises breathability and moisture management, ensuring the wearer remains comfortable during physical exertion. The addition of long sleeves provides extra coverage without the bulk of a sweatshirt, making it a versatile choice for variable British weather. This T-shirt is particularly suited for those who require a professional appearance while maintaining a full range of motion.
Key Features
- Textured Breathable Fabric: The polyester weave is designed to facilitate airflow and wick moisture away from the skin, preventing the garment from becoming heavy or uncomfortable during active use.
- Raglan Sleeves: By removing the traditional shoulder seam, the raglan sleeve design allows for greater freedom of movement and eliminates potential friction points, which is essential for repetitive tasks.
- Drop Hem: The extended back length ensures the garment remains in place and provides continuous coverage when bending or stretching.
- Twin Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching on the sleeves and hem ensures the T-shirt can withstand the rigours of regular wear and industrial laundering without fraying.
- Tear-Out Label: This feature allows for a smooth internal finish against the skin, reducing irritation for the wearer and facilitating easy rebranding if required.
Design & Performance
Engineered for performance, this T-shirt is crafted from a lightweight fabric that offers a classic fit. The self-fabric bound collar provides a clean, consistent finish that maintains its shape even after repeated use. Its 100% polyester composition is specifically chosen for its durability and its ability to dry significantly faster than natural fibres, which is a practical advantage for staff working in demanding conditions.
Furthermore, this garment is produced with a high regard for ethical and environmental standards. It carries certifications including OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and PETA-Approved Vegan status, alongside compliance with REACH and the Fair Wear Foundation. These credentials ensure that your workwear aligns with modern corporate social responsibility requirements.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This performance T-shirt is an excellent canvas for company branding. Because it is made from 100% polyester, it is specifically suitable for sublimation printing, a process that embeds the ink directly into the fibres for a finish that won't crack or peel, regardless of how much the fabric stretches.
For a more traditional, professional appearance, our Telford-based team can apply high-quality embroidery. This is ideal for company logos or staff names, providing a durable and raised finish. Whether you require bold, printed graphics for an event or sophisticated embroidery for your daily uniform, our in-house experts, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, will ensure a superior result.
Use Cases
This garment is highly effective for staff involved in logistics, light manual labour, or outdoor events where temperature regulation is critical. It is also an ideal choice for corporate sporting events, running clubs, or as a base layer for workers in colder environments who need to manage perspiration effectively.

Practical Advice
As this is a lightweight, classic-fit T-shirt, it works exceptionally well as a standalone piece in warmer weather or as a moisture-wicking base layer underneath a fleece or softshell jacket. When selecting your size, consider that the raglan sleeves provide a more forgiving fit across the chest and shoulders compared to standard set-in sleeves.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance characteristics of the textured polyester and ensure your custom branding stays in peak condition, proper maintenance is essential. Regular washing helps to clear the breathable pores of the fabric which can otherwise become clogged with salts and oils.
We recommend avoiding the use of bleach, as this will degrade the synthetic fibres and cause the colours of both the garment and your embroidery to fade prematurely. When drying, it is best to avoid high heat; air drying is preferable to maintain the structural integrity of the print and the shape of the T-shirt.
If ironing is required, use a low temperature and avoid direct contact with any printed areas to prevent the design from melting or distorting. Following these steps will ensure your workwear continues to perform as intended for the long term.
