Product Overview
The TriDri long sleeve performance 1/4 zip is a meticulously engineered layer designed for individuals who require performance and professional presentation in equal measure. This lightweight garment provides essential warmth without the restrictive bulk of traditional sweatshirts, making it an ideal choice for outdoor workouts or active work environments. The addition of a contrast 1/4 zip not only adds a touch of visual distinction but also offers practical temperature regulation when the intensity of your task increases.
Key Features
- Integrated 1/4 Zip: The contrast zip allows for immediate ventilation, helping you manage your body temperature effectively during physical exertion.
- Advanced Wicking Fabric: The technical polyester construction pulls moisture away from the skin, ensuring you remain dry and comfortable throughout the day.
- UPF 40+ Protection: Built-in ultraviolet protection safeguards you against harmful rays, a critical feature for those spending extended hours working outdoors.
- Twin-Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching on the hems and sleeves provides enhanced durability, ensuring the garment maintains its shape and integrity after repeated use.
- Stretch Performance: The fabric is designed with a degree of stretch to facilitate a full range of motion, essential for both sporting activities and manual tasks.
Design & Performance
Constructed from 100% polyester, this performance top is characterised by its lightweight and breathable nature. Unlike heavier cotton alternatives, this technical fabric is specifically chosen for its ability to manage moisture and dry quickly. The design is streamlined to prevent snagging or interference during movement, while the long sleeves provide full coverage. The absence of a permanent branded neck label—utilising a removable or cut-away system instead—makes this an excellent choice for businesses looking to provide a clean, uncluttered appearance for their staff.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The TriDri performance 1/4 zip is highly versatile when it comes to branding. For those seeking a traditional, high-quality finish, embroidery is recommended for chest logos or staff names, providing a durable and professional look that withstands regular laundering. If your requirements involve larger, more vibrant graphics, the garment's smooth surface is perfectly suited for printing.
At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team—who have been perfecting their craft since 1976—recommends the use of block-out vinyl or specific inks for this polyester fabric. This ensures that the colour of the garment does not bleed into your design, maintaining the crispness of your logo for the life of the garment.
Use Cases
This garment is perfectly suited for fitness professionals, sports teams, and golf societies who require a uniform that performs under pressure. Beyond the sporting world, it serves as an excellent lightweight mid-layer for tradespeople or site managers who need a professional alternative to a standard t-shirt during the transitional seasons. Its professional appearance also makes it suitable for corporate wellness events or active team-building days.

Practical Advice
With a size range extending from S to 3XL, we recommend reviewing the specific chest measurements to ensure a professional fit. This garment is designed to be worn as a performance layer; if you intend to wear multiple thick layers beneath it, you may wish to consider a larger size to maintain comfort and range of motion.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of your garment and the custom branding applied to it, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Regular washing at higher temperatures can damage the technical wicking fibres and may degrade the adhesive properties of printed logos over time.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will compromise the fabric's colour and structural integrity. When drying, it is best to allow the garment to air dry naturally. Subjecting technical polyester to high heat in a tumble dryer can cause shrinkage and can lead to the 'puckering' of embroidered designs. By following these simple steps, you ensure your professional uniform remains in peak condition for as long as possible.
