Product Overview
The Tee Jays Stretch tee represents a significant step up from standard workwear basics. Engineered for those who require a more tailored, contemporary fit without sacrificing comfort, this slim-fitting crew neck is crafted from a high-quality blend of ringspun combed cotton and elastane. It is designed to maintain its shape and finish even after repeated wear, making it a reliable staple for professional environments.
Key Features
Double pre-shrunk fabric: By shrinking the material twice during production, Tee Jays ensures that the garment retains its intended size and proportions wash after wash.
Full-feeder elastane: This technical approach to knitting ensures the stretch is uniform throughout the garment, preventing the sagging or bagging often seen in lower-quality stretch fabrics.
Double stitched seams: Reinforced stitching at critical points increases the structural integrity of the t-shirt, ensuring it withstands the rigours of a busy workday.
Shoulder-to-shoulder taping: This internal tape reinforces the neck and shoulder seams, preventing stretching and ensuring the garment sits correctly on the frame.
Design & Performance
The performance of this t-shirt lies in its material composition and finishing. Utilizing long-fibre ringspun combed cotton, the fabric offers a remarkably smooth surface that feels soft against the skin. An enzyme wash is applied to remove stray fibres, while a silicone treatment provides a silk-like handle and enhances the fabric's natural sheen. The inclusion of 10% elastane provides the necessary flexibility for active roles, allowing for a full range of movement while the slim-fit silhouette provides a modern, clean-cut aesthetic.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, thanks to its smooth, high-density surface. For businesses seeking a sophisticated and permanent branding solution, embroidery is ideal for chest logos or staff names, offering a tactile and durable finish. Alternatively, for promotional events or larger branding requirements, screen printing or digital transfer methods yield sharp, vibrant results. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting these techniques since 1976.
Use Cases
The TJ022 is particularly well-suited for corporate hospitality, retail environments, or as a premium base layer for technicians and tradespeople. Its slim profile ensures it fits neatly under jackets or sweaters, making it a versatile choice for staff uniforms that need to transition between different settings.

Practical Advice
As this is a slim-fitting garment, we recommend reviewing the size guide carefully. If you prefer a more relaxed fit or are between sizes, opting for the larger size may be more comfortable. The elastane content provides plenty of give, but the silhouette is intentionally close to the body for a professional appearance.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and the soft finish of your Tee Jays t-shirt, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes everyday grime without placing undue stress on the elastane fibres.
Always wash with similar colours to prevent dye transfer, and avoid the use of bleach, which can weaken the cotton fibres and cause premature fading of the fabric and your custom branding.
We advise against tumble drying; air drying is far gentler on the elastane and prevents the garment from losing its shape. Finally, if your t-shirt features a printed design, do not iron directly over the print, as the heat will damage the graphic and could lead to peeling or cracking.
