Product Overview
The Spiro S253M is a meticulously engineered short-sleeve t-shirt designed for those whose work demands physical exertion and consistent movement. Far more than a standard cotton tee, this garment functions as a high-performance base layer, utilising advanced moisture-wicking technology to manage perspiration effectively during a long shift. Whether you are working in a heated warehouse or performing active tasks outdoors, the well-fitted silhouette ensures a professional appearance without restricting your range of motion.
Key Features
Quick-dry performance fabric: The 100% polyester construction is designed to pull moisture away from the skin and allow it to evaporate rapidly, keeping you dry and preventing that uncomfortable chilled feeling during downtime.
Flat-lock stitched seams: By using flat seams, the garment minimises friction against the skin, significantly reducing the risk of chafing during repetitive movements.
Reflective detailing: Featuring a reflective Spiro print logo and a reflective printed neck label, this t-shirt provides a subtle touch of visibility in low-light conditions.
Breathable athletic material: The fabric structure is inherently breathable, allowing for constant airflow to help regulate your body temperature throughout the day.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a lightweight polyester fabric, the Spiro S253M is designed for maximum efficiency. The material feels soft against the skin, avoiding the synthetic 'scratchiness' often associated with lower-quality performance wear. Its lightweight nature makes it almost unnoticeable when worn, yet it remains sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of daily work life. The inclusion of an Amfori BSCI accreditation ensures that the garment is produced under ethical working conditions, matching technical performance with responsible manufacturing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is perfectly suited for both transfer print and embroidery, allowing you to align your workwear with your brand identity. For the S253M, transfer printing is an excellent choice for large, bold logos on the back or chest, as the thin film integrates well with the smooth polyester surface without compromising the fabric's wicking properties. Embroidery remains the preferred option for a more traditional, professional finish on the left chest, providing a durable and textured logo that stands the test of time.
All customisation is handled in-house by our expert team in Telford. With MyWorkwear's heritage dating back to 1976, we ensure your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the professional standard your business requires.
Use Cases
This t-shirt is the ideal choice for tradespeople working in warm environments, delivery drivers who are constantly on the move, or as a uniform for gym and leisure staff. It also serves as an excellent moisture-wicking base layer beneath a fleece or softshell jacket during the colder British months, keeping sweat away from the body to maintain warmth.

Practical Advice
The Spiro S253M features an athletic fit, so if you prefer a more relaxed feel, you may wish to consider moving up one size. The size range spans from Small (37") to 2XL (49"), catering to a wide variety of body types. Because it is a performance fabric, it works best when worn directly against the skin to allow the wicking process to function correctly.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical integrity of the polyester fibres and ensure your branding remains in top condition, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the synthetic structure and cause the custom print to degrade prematurely.
Do not use bleach on this garment. Chlorine-based cleaners will strip the colour and weaken the polyester yarns, leading to a loss of shape and durability.
We strongly advise against tumble drying. High heat can shrink the fabric and negatively affect the adhesive used in transfer prints. Instead, allow the garment to air dry; thanks to the quick-dry technology, it will be ready to wear again in very little time.
If ironing is required, use a low heat setting and avoid ironing directly over any printed or embroidered areas. Do not dry clean, as the harsh chemicals used in the process are unnecessary for this fabric and can impair its moisture-wicking capabilities.
