Product Overview
The Tee Jays Womens Active Stretch Shirt is a sophisticated garment designed for the professional who requires a tailored appearance without the restrictive feel of traditional formal wear. Engineered with a luxury four-way stretch, this shirt allows for a full range of movement, making it as practical for a fast-paced corporate environment as it is for front-of-house hospitality roles. Its modern, shaped fit ensures a sharp silhouette while the lightweight fabric provides exceptional breathability throughout the working day.
Key Features
- Four-way stretch fabric: This technical blend provides total comfort and elasticity, ensuring the shirt moves with the wearer rather than resisting them during daily tasks.
- Ascolite button wrapping: A superior finishing technique that secures buttons with a heat-sealed thread, significantly reducing the risk of buttons loosening or falling off over time.
- Easycare properties: The fabric is designed to be quick-drying and simple to maintain, which is essential for busy professionals who need to maintain a crisp appearance with minimal effort.
- Modern-shaped cuffs and wide spread collar: These specific design elements offer a contemporary aesthetic that elevates the standard professional uniform beyond basic shirting.
- Back yoke and shaped fit: The construction provides a structured, feminine silhouette that complements the form while maintaining a professional and modest appearance.
Design & Performance
The performance of this shirt lies in its unique knitted construction. By blending 91% cotton with 9% elastane, Tee Jays has created a fabric that feels soft and natural against the skin but performs with the flexibility of a technical garment. The lightweight nature of the material makes it ideal for year-round wear, serving as a breathable standalone piece or a comfortable layer under a blazer. Furthermore, the inclusion of a back yoke provides additional strength and structure across the shoulders, a common point of stress in daily wear, ensuring the garment retains its shape long-term.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This active stretch shirt is an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery, allowing your business to maintain a cohesive and professional brand identity. For a truly prestigious finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos or individual names; the fabric's knitted quality handles needlework exceptionally well, providing a stable base for detailed designs. If you require larger, more vibrant graphics for promotional events, our high-quality printing techniques are equally effective. All customisation is managed in-house at our Telford facility by a team that has been perfecting workwear since 1976.
Use Cases
This shirt is perfectly suited for corporate office environments, hospitality management, or any professional setting where a feminine, shaped fit is required. Its quick-drying and stretch properties also make it a sensible choice for staff who are frequently on the move, such as event coordinators or estate agents, who must remain comfortable while looking impeccably presented.

Practical Advice
This shirt features a shaped fit designed to follow the natural lines of the body; we recommend reviewing the specific size range from Small (UK 6/8) through to 3XL (UK 16/18) to ensure the desired silhouette. Because it is a lightweight garment, it serves as an excellent base layer during colder months, fitting neatly under a V-neck jumper or a corporate blazer without restricting arm movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance stretch and soft finish of your garment, we recommend a domestic machine wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes daily grime without causing unnecessary degradation to the elastane fibres.
Always wash the shirt with similar colours to prevent dye transfer, which can dull the vibrancy of the fabric. It is also important to wash and iron the garment inside out; this protects the outer surface from abrasion in the wash drum and ensures that any custom embroidery or print remains in pristine condition for longer.
Do not use whitening agents or bleach. These chemicals are particularly harsh on elastane and will cause the shirt to lose its elasticity and shape over time. Finally, do not tumble dry this garment. High heat from a dryer can damage the technical fibres and cause shrinkage; instead, allow it to air dry naturally to preserve the shirt's integrity.
