Product Overview
The Tee Jays Urban loose fit tee is a sophisticated alternative to the standard workwear t-shirt, bridging the gap between contemporary fashion and industrial-grade durability. Designed with a modern, oversized silhouette, this garment is crafted from substantial heavyweight cotton jersey that offers a premium feel without sacrificing the resilience required for daily professional use. The use of long-fibre, ringspun combed organic cotton ensures a smoother surface and a more robust structure than standard t-shirts.
Key Features
- Substantial Heavyweight Fabric: The thick jersey construction provides a structured look and exceptional durability, ensuring the garment stands up to the rigours of a busy working environment.
- Double Pre-shrunk Cotton: This process minimises the risk of the garment shrinking after laundering, ensuring the fit you buy is the fit you keep.
- Wide 1x1 Ribbed Collar: Featuring double top stitching, this collar is engineered to retain its shape and prevent sagging over time.
- Enzyme-Washed Finish: Despite its heavyweight nature, the enzyme treatment provides a soft, refined hand-feel and a clean surface for branding.
- Sustainable Construction: Certified organic cotton ensures your brand aligns with modern environmental standards while providing superior comfort for the wearer.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Tee Jays Urban tee lies in its construction details. The use of long-fibre cotton means fewer protruding ends in the yarn, which results in a stronger fabric that is less prone to pilling. The set-in sleeves and loose fit are intentionally designed to allow for a full range of movement, making it an excellent choice for active roles where comfort is paramount.
The garment is tagless, which prevents irritation at the neck and allows for easy re-branding for those looking to create their own clothing line or bespoke corporate uniform. The overall weight of the fabric gives it a 'drape' that is often missing from lighter shirts, providing a more professional and authoritative presence.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This heavyweight t-shirt is an ideal canvas for both print and embroidery. Because of the fabric's thickness and stability, embroidery is particularly effective; the dense weave supports intricate logos without the puckering often seen on thinner materials, resulting in a superior, professional finish.
For large-scale branding or bold graphics, our Telford-based print team can apply high-quality designs that stand out against the clean, enzyme-washed surface. MyWorkwear has been refining these customisation techniques since 1976, ensuring that every logo applied in our Shropshire facility meets our exacting standards.
Use Cases
The Urban loose fit tee is perfectly suited for creative agencies, modern retail environments, and technical teams who require a contemporary look. It is equally effective as a premium base layer for tradespeople who prefer a more substantial t-shirt under their work jackets or hoodies.

Practical Advice
As this is a 'loose fit' garment, it is designed to be worn slightly oversized. If you prefer a more traditional, closer-to-body fit, you may wish to consider sizing down. Always refer to the specific chest measurements provided in our size guide to ensure the best fit for your team.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the quality of your garment is essential for long-term performance. We recommend a machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Washing at this temperature effectively removes oils and dirt while preserving the integrity of the organic cotton fibres.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will break down the natural cotton fibres and cause premature wear. We also advise against tumble drying; allowing the garment to air dry naturally will prevent heat damage and maintain the structural integrity of the pre-shrunk fabric.
If your t-shirt features a print, do not iron directly over the design. The high heat from an iron can melt the print or cause it to peel. Instead, iron on the reverse to keep both the fabric and your custom branding in peak condition.
