Product Overview
The TriDri Contrast performance t-shirt is a technical solution for teams requiring apparel that performs as hard as they do. This garment is engineered from 100% certified recycled polyester, aligning your company's professional appearance with environmentally conscious values. Designed with a contemporary contrast shoulder and side panel aesthetic, it provides a distinctive look that ensures your staff are easily identifiable while maintaining a high standard of presentation.
Key Features
- Integrated sweat-wicking technology actively moves moisture away from the skin to the surface of the fabric for rapid evaporation, keeping the wearer cool.
- Built-in UPF 40+ protection offers a significant shield against ultraviolet radiation, making this an essential garment for outdoor workers.
- The use of cationic-dyed fabric is a technical highlight, specifically chosen to prevent colour migration and ensure the garment resists fading over time.
- Twin-needle stitching on the hem and arms provides the structural reinforcement necessary for a garment that will undergo frequent use and laundering.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a lightweight fabric with inherent stretch, this t-shirt allows for a full range of ergonomic movement. This is particularly beneficial for trades or roles that require physical exertion or reaching. The crew neck and short sleeve design offer a classic silhouette, while the smooth texture of the polyester ensures comfort during long shifts. The cationic dyeing process is vital for durability; it ensures that the vibrant contrast colours do not bleed into one another, preserving the sharp, professional look of the garment throughout its lifecycle.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This garment is a superb canvas for branding, handled by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting workwear since 1976. For a traditional and highly durable finish, embroidery is recommended for company logos on the chest or sleeves. It provides a tactile, premium feel that conveys authority. For larger, more vibrant designs—particularly on the back of the shirt—printing is an excellent alternative. The cationic-dyed fabric is especially advantageous for printing, as it prevents the garment's base colour from 'ghosting' through the ink, ensuring your brand colours remain true and punchy.
Use Cases
Due to its moisture-management properties and UV protection, this t-shirt is perfectly suited for landscaping, construction, and event management sectors. It is equally effective for staff in leisure centres, gyms, or delivery roles where physical activity is a core part of the day. The professional contrast design also makes it a popular choice for promotional teams at trade shows or outdoor events.
Why MyWorkwear

Practical Advice
The sizing for this t-shirt ranges from Small (36" chest) to 3XL (49" chest), catering to a broad workforce. For those working in varied climates, this lightweight garment serves as an exceptional base layer that can be comfortably worn under a sweatshirt or softshell jacket without adding unnecessary bulk. The inclusion of a cut-away inner label is a practical touch for those looking to rebrand the items or for wearers who find traditional tags irritating.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and the visual integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient for effective cleaning while remaining gentle enough to preserve the polyester fibres and the moisture-wicking finish.
It is important to avoid the use of bleach or harsh oxidising agents, as these will degrade the fabric’s UV protection and can cause permanent damage to both printed and embroidered logos. By following these guidelines, you ensure that the garment continues to represent your business professionally for the long term.
