Product Overview
The Spiro Softex T-shirt (S280F) represents a sophisticated approach to female-specific activewear, balancing technical performance with a remarkably soft hand-feel. Designed as part of the Impact Fitness range, this garment is engineered for those who require a professional appearance without sacrificing the functional benefits of modern sportswear. The defining characteristic is the carbon-brushed finish, which provides a peached softness against the skin, making it an excellent choice for extended wear in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Quick Dri Treatment: This specialised finish ensures moisture is rapidly wicked away from the skin, keeping the wearer comfortable and dry during high-intensity activity.
- Carbon Brushed Fabric: The carbon brushing process creates a peached texture, offering a level of softness typically reserved for luxury loungewear while maintaining technical durability.
- HighTec Stretch: The inclusion of elastane provides exceptional elasticity, allowing the garment to move with the wearer and retain its shape over time.
- Full Fit Design: Engineered specifically for the female form, the full fit ensures comfort and ease of movement without being restrictive.
- Amfori BSCI Accreditation: This ensures the garment is produced under ethical working conditions, providing peace of mind regarding the supply chain.
Design & Performance
The fabric composition of 85% polyester and 15% elastane is a deliberate choice for performance. The polyester provides the necessary structural integrity and quick-drying capabilities, while the high elastane content ensures the t-shirt offers a flexible, non-restrictive fit. This lightweight fabric is exceptionally breathable, facilitating air circulation to regulate body temperature.
The design is intentionally clean and 'ready to brand', featuring a sewn-in tag rather than a printed one, which allows for a more traditional finish. The peached softness of the Softex fabric ensures that it feels substantial despite its lightweight nature, providing a premium experience for the wearer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is highly versatile when it comes to customisation. For a professional and enduring corporate identity, we recommend embroidery. It is particularly well-suited for breast-pocket logos or staff names, providing a textured, high-quality finish that stands up to frequent laundering.
Alternatively, for large-scale promotional events or bold gym branding, print is an excellent choice. The smooth surface of the carbon-brushed fabric provides a stable canvas for high-definition prints. All customisation is handled at our dedicated facility in Telford, where our team has been perfecting the craft since 1976.
Use Cases
This t-shirt is ideally suited for the fitness and leisure industry, including personal trainers, gym staff, and yoga instructors. Its technical properties also make it an excellent choice for corporate team-building events, charity runs, or as a base layer for active outdoor work. The full fit and wide size range (XXS to 2XL) make it a versatile option for diverse workforces.

Practical Advice
The Spiro Softex T-shirt is designed with a full fit; however, if you are between sizes or prefer a more aerodynamic profile for high-performance sports, you may wish to consider the smaller size. Its breathable nature makes it a perfect base layer under a technical jacket or sweatshirt in cooler conditions.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and peached softness of the Softex fabric, it is essential to follow correct laundering procedures. High temperatures can damage the elastane fibres, leading to a loss of shape and elasticity over time. We recommend washing at moderate temperatures to preserve the garment's integrity.
Avoid the use of fabric softeners where possible, as these can coat the fibres and inhibit the Quick Dri moisture-wicking properties. When drying, air drying is preferable to prevent heat damage, ensuring your custom print or embroidery remains vibrant and intact for the life of the garment.
