Product Overview
The Tee Jays Ladies Perfect Long Sleeve Oxford Shirt is a sophisticated interpretation of a timeless classic, specifically tailored to provide a professional silhouette for women in the workplace. This medium-weight garment strikes the ideal balance between substance and breathability, making it a reliable choice for year-round wear. With its garment-washed finish, the shirt offers a softer feel against the skin and a slightly more relaxed aesthetic than a stiff, traditional dress shirt, without sacrificing its sharp, corporate appeal.
Key Features
- Shaped Fit: Designed with back darts and a shaped silhouette to provide a flattering, professional appearance that avoids the bulk of unisex alternatives.
- Button Down Collar: Ensures the collar remains neatly in place throughout the day, maintaining a tidy appearance even during active shifts.
- Garment Washed: This process pre-shrinks the fabric and softens the texture, ensuring comfort from the first wear and reducing the risk of shrinkage after laundering.
- Box Pleat & Back Yoke: The inclusion of a box pleat in the back yoke allows for a greater range of movement across the shoulders, essential for tasks that require reaching or lifting.
- Adjustable Cuffs: Features two-button adjustable cuffs and a buttoned gauntlet, allowing the wearer to achieve a precise fit or roll up sleeves neatly when required.
- Pearlised Branded Buttons: These high-quality buttons provide a subtle, elegant finish that reinforces the premium nature of the Tee Jays brand.
Design & Performance
The construction of this Oxford shirt focuses on longevity and everyday performance. The fabric is a robust cotton weave—currently transitioning to include a small amount of elastane for enhanced flexibility—which provides the durability needed for the rigours of a professional environment. The curved hem is designed to look equally professional whether tucked into trousers or worn untucked for a slightly more modern look.
Furthermore, this shirt carries the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, confirming that every component has been tested for harmful substances. It is also produced under the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI), ensuring that your workwear meets high social and environmental standards during its manufacture in Laos.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Oxford weave provides a stable, high-quality surface for custom branding. For this specific shirt, embroidery is the recommended choice for achieving a traditional and authoritative look. A neatly embroidered logo on the collar or chest communicates a high level of professionalism and durability that withstands frequent washing.
While embroidery is preferred for its texture and longevity, print is also an option for those requiring larger, bolder designs on the back of the shirt for promotional events. Our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment customisation since 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the integrity of the fabric.
Use Cases
This shirt is perfectly suited for corporate office environments, hospitality front-of-house roles, and retail management. Its versatile design allows it to transition seamlessly from a formal client meeting to a more relaxed evening event. It is an excellent choice for businesses looking to provide a uniform that staff find comfortable yet commanding of respect.

Practical Advice
The shaped fit is designed to be true to size for a feminine silhouette. If you prefer a more generous feel across the chest and waist, you may wish to consider one size larger than your standard measurement. The Oxford fabric is substantial, making it an excellent layering piece under a jumper or blazer during colder months.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your Oxford shirt, we recommend a consistent washing routine. Using a standard domestic wash will help remove daily grime without stressing the cotton fibres excessively. Always wash similar colours together to prevent any dye transfer that could dull the crispness of the fabric.
Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical detergents, as these can weaken the natural cotton fibres and cause the colour to fade prematurely. Furthermore, such chemicals can damage the thread used in your embroidered logo, leading to fraying or loss of vibrancy. When drying, it is best to hang the shirt immediately after the wash cycle to reduce deep creasing, making the ironing process more efficient and less damaging to the fabric over time.
