Product Overview
The Tee Jays Stretch V-neck t-shirt is a meticulously engineered garment designed for those who require a professional silhouette without sacrificing range of movement. This slim-fitted t-shirt moves away from the standard loose-fitting workwear aesthetic, offering a contemporary appearance that sits comfortably under a blazer or functions perfectly as a standalone piece. Constructed with a blend of long-fibre cotton and elastane, it provides a superior feel and consistent shape retention, making it a reliable choice for daily corporate or retail environments.
Key Features
- Long-fibre ringspun combed cotton: This high-quality cotton provides a smoother surface for customisation and a softer feel against the skin compared to standard yarns.
- Full-feeder elastane: By integrating elastane throughout the knit, the garment offers exceptional stretch and recovery, ensuring it doesn't lose its shape after a long shift.
- Double pre-shrunk fabric: This process significantly reduces the risk of the garment shrinking in the wash, allowing for a more predictable fit over its lifespan.
- Silicone treatment and enzyme wash: These finishing processes result in a remarkably soft hand-feel and a clean, lint-free surface that enhances the clarity of printed logos.
- Shoulder-to-shoulder taping: Reinforced seams across the shoulders prevent the garment from stretching out of shape when hung or worn frequently.
Design & Performance
The technical composition of 90% ringspun combed cotton and 10% elastane creates a medium-weight fabric that feels substantial yet breathable. The inclusion of a two-layer collar with elastane ensures the V-neck maintains its crisp lines rather than sagging over time. Double stitching on the seams provides the structural integrity needed for active work roles, while the slim-fit design ensures a professional appearance that aligns with modern corporate branding requirements.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The TJ023 is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. For those seeking a traditional, professional appearance for staff names or company logos, embroidery is highly recommended as the stable fabric handles high-stitch counts with ease. Alternatively, the silicone-treated surface is ideal for screen printing or heat transfers, allowing for large, vibrant designs that adhere smoothly to the fine-knit cotton. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, ensuring the same level of quality we have delivered since 1976.
Use Cases
This t-shirt is specifically tailored for corporate environments, front-of-house hospitality roles, and premium retail staff. Its sleek profile also makes it an ideal base layer for security personnel or technical staff who require a smart look beneath a softshell or jacket. With sizes ranging from Small to 3XL, it is a versatile option for diverse teams.

Practical Advice
Due to the slim-fit nature of this garment and the 10% elastane content, it is designed to sit close to the body. If your team prefers a more relaxed or traditional fit, we suggest reviewing the size guide carefully or considering a size larger than usual. The V-neck depth is professional and sits well under uniform knitwear.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of the elastane and the quality of your custom branding requires adherence to specific care protocols. We recommend a domestic machine wash at 40°C. Washing at higher temperatures can degrade the elastane fibres, leading to a loss of the garment's stretch and recovery properties.
Always wash the t-shirt with similar colours to prevent dye migration. You should avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the long-fibre cotton and damage the vibrancy of any customisation. It is essential to air dry this garment; do not use a tumble dryer, as the intense heat can cause the fabric to become brittle and shrink.
When ironing, avoid direct contact with any printed areas. High heat can melt the print medium, causing it to peel or smudge. Ironing on the reverse side is the safest method to keep the garment looking sharp while protecting your investment.
