Product Overview
The Tee Jays Perfect Long Sleeve Oxford Shirt is a sophisticated choice for those requiring a professional wardrobe that does not compromise on comfort. Unlike standard, stiff work shirts, this garment has been garment-washed to provide a softer feel and a more relaxed drape from the moment it is first worn. The shaped fit offers a more contemporary, tailored silhouette that avoids unnecessary bulk, ensuring your team maintains a sharp, professional appearance throughout the day.
Key Features
- Button Down Collar: Ensures the collar remains neatly in place, providing a consistently tidy look even during active shifts.
- Shaped Fit: A more modern, tailored cut that provides a flattering silhouette without restricting movement.
- Box Pleat and Back Yoke: These design elements allow for extra room across the shoulders, making the shirt more comfortable during physical tasks.
- Pearlised Branded Buttons: A subtle detail that adds a touch of elegance and confirms the premium quality of the Tee Jays brand.
- Adjustable Cuffs and Gauntlet Button: Provides versatility in how the sleeves are worn, allowing for a precise fit at the wrist or a more casual rolled-up style.
- Curved Hem: Specifically designed to look professional whether tucked into formal trousers or worn untucked for a smarter-casual look.
Design & Performance
Constructed from high-quality cotton, this Oxford shirt is built to withstand the rigours of daily wear while remaining breathable. The Oxford weave is traditionally more durable than standard plain fabrics, offering a substantial feel that holds its shape well. As the product is currently in transition to a cotton and elastane blend, you can expect an even greater degree of flexibility and shape retention. This shirt also carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and BSCI certifications, reflecting a commitment to both environmental safety and ethical manufacturing standards in its production in Laos.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The textured weave of an Oxford shirt is particularly well-suited to embroidery. A high-quality embroidered logo or staff name provides a three-dimensional, 'proper' professional finish that complements the premium feel of the fabric. For larger, bolder branding or promotional events, our advanced printing techniques are equally effective. All customisation is performed in-house at our Telford facility by a team that has been honing their craft since 1976, ensuring your branding is as durable as the garment itself.
Use Cases
This shirt is an excellent choice for front-of-house hospitality staff, corporate office teams, or sales professionals who need to look their best. Its versatility also makes it a popular option for festive uniforms or as a high-quality gift for male employees who appreciate a well-engineered garment.

Practical Advice
Because this shirt features a shaped fit, it is closer to the body than a traditional 'classic fit' shirt. If you prefer a more generous feel, or if you are between sizes, we recommend opting for the larger size. For a complete corporate look, it layers exceptionally well under a V-neck jumper or a smart blazer.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of the cotton fabric is key to ensuring your shirt continues to look professional and fits correctly over time. Always refer to the specific temperature guidelines on the internal care label; washing at higher temperatures than recommended can lead to shrinkage and may damage the fabric's soft, garment-washed finish.
We advise against the use of harsh bleaches, which can weaken the natural cotton fibres and cause the colour to dull. When drying, it is best to avoid high-heat settings in a tumble dryer to prevent the shirt from losing its shape. Finally, ironing while the fabric is slightly damp will make it much easier to remove creases from the Oxford weave, ensuring a crisp finish for the start of your next shift.
