Product Overview
The Tombo Slim fit t-shirt represents a refined approach to performance-driven workwear. Engineered specifically for active environments, this lightweight t-shirt combines a contemporary slim silhouette with technical fabric choices that prioritise comfort and mobility. Whether used as a standalone piece for outdoor tasks or as a functional base layer, its design ensures you remain cool and focused throughout the day without the bulk of traditional cotton alternatives.
Key Features
- Two-piece sports crew neck: This construction offers a more structured and professional finish than standard necklines, ensuring the garment maintains its shape and appearance even after repeated wear and washing.
- Mesh side panels and back yoke: These targeted ventilation zones are critical for managing heat during physical activity, facilitating airflow exactly where it is needed most to keep the wearer dry.
- Shaped raglan sleeves: By removing the traditional shoulder seam, these sleeves allow for an unrestricted range of motion, reducing friction and improving comfort during repetitive movements or manual tasks.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a sophisticated blend of 90% polyester and 10% elastane, this t-shirt provides a significant degree of stretch. This elastane content ensures the garment moves with the wearer rather than resisting them, while the lightweight fabric composition prevents any feeling of restriction. The inclusion of the Amfori BSCI accreditation confirms that this garment is produced under ethical working conditions, reflecting a commitment to responsible manufacturing that modern businesses expect.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is highly versatile and accommodates both print and embroidery. For a truly professional appearance that stands the test of time, embroidery is ideal for rendering company logos or individual names with precision on the chest or sleeves. If your requirements involve larger, more vibrant graphics or bold promotional messaging, our high-quality printing processes offer a clear and durable finish. Our in-house team in Telford has been perfecting these customisation techniques since 1976, ensuring your branding is applied with expert care to this technical fabric.
Use Cases
Due to its moisture-wicking properties and slim fit, this t-shirt is perfectly suited for gym instructors, personal trainers, and sports teams. However, it is equally effective for tradespeople working in high-temperature environments or those who require a modern, athletic look for their staff uniforms. It bridges the gap between traditional work garments and high-performance activewear.

Practical Advice
As this is a slim-fit garment, it is designed to sit close to the body for maximum performance. If you prefer a more relaxed fit for your team, you may wish to consider selecting one size larger than usual. Please consult our detailed size guide, which covers chest measurements from 34 inches to 48 inches, to ensure the best possible fit. This t-shirt also serves as an excellent base layer under a sweatshirt or softshell jacket during cooler months.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and aesthetic of your t-shirt, it is essential to follow the specific care instructions provided. A domestic wash at 40°C on a synthetic cycle is recommended to remove dirt effectively without damaging the synthetic fibres or the elastane content.
We advise washing the garment inside out and with similar dark colours to prevent any unwanted dye transfer. Avoid the use of bleach or fabric softeners, as these chemicals can degrade the elastane fibres and clog the moisture-wicking mesh panels, which would ultimately reduce the garment's effectiveness in managing perspiration.
This item should not be dry cleaned or tumble dried. Instead, re-shape the garment while it is still damp and allow it to dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent shrinkage and maintain the fabric's integrity. If ironing is required, use a cool setting on the reverse of the fabric to protect the technical finish and ensure any custom print or embroidery is not compromised by direct heat.
