Uneek Mens Heavyweight Tunic

Product Overview

The Uneek Clothing UC924 Mens Heavyweight Tunic is a meticulously engineered garment designed to meet the rigorous demands of the modern healthcare environment. Combining a professional aesthetic with functional durability, this tunic serves as a reliable uniform for those who require both comfort and a smart appearance throughout long shifts. The design prioritises ease of movement and practical storage, ensuring that the wearer can perform their duties without restriction while maintaining a polished, authoritative look.

Key Features

• Concealed Open End Zip with Press Stud: The front fastening is hidden to provide a clean, streamlined appearance while allowing for quick and effortless dressing.
• Comprehensive Pocket Configuration: Features one chest pocket and two hip pockets, providing ample space for essential tools, pens, and personal items.
• Action Back Pleats and Side Vents: These design elements are critical for mobility, allowing the wearer to reach and move freely without the fabric pulling or bunching.
• Contrast Trim Detail: The distinctive trim on the collar, cuffs, and pockets adds a professional touch of colour, making it easier to distinguish between different departments or roles.
• Regular Fit: Designed to provide a comfortable silhouette that suits a variety of body types without being overly baggy or restrictive.

Design & Performance

Constructed from a substantial 65% polyester and 35% cotton blend, this tunic is built to last. The polyester provides exceptional colour retention and resistance to wear, while the cotton ensures the fabric remains breathable against the skin. Despite being a heavyweight fabric, it maintains a softness that is essential for comfort during extended periods of wear. The material is specifically chosen for its ability to withstand the frequent, high-temperature laundering required in clinical and hygiene-sensitive settings without losing its shape or professional finish.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The UC924 is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery for your company logo or staff names. The sturdy nature of this heavyweight fabric provides a stable base for high-quality stitching, ensuring your branding remains crisp and secure. If you require larger, more prominent identification or bold graphics, our high-quality printing process is equally effective. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience to ensure your uniform reflects your professional standards.

Use Cases

This tunic is ideally suited for a wide range of professional settings, including NHS wards, private dental practices, veterinary clinics, and physiotherapy centres. Its robust construction also makes it a sensible choice for laboratory work and pharmacy staff who require a garment that can handle daily wear and tear while remaining presentable for patient-facing interactions.

Practical Advice

Given the regular fit of this tunic, we recommend selecting your standard size to allow for the intended ease of movement provided by the action back pleats. If you typically wear a base layer or undershirt, consider this when checking measurements to ensure a comfortable fit throughout the day. The side vents are particularly useful for those who spend a lot of time seated or moving between different heights.

Caring for your product

To maintain the hygienic standards and structural integrity of this tunic, it should be washed at 60°C. This temperature is necessary to effectively remove biological contaminants and stains commonly found in healthcare environments while ensuring the polyester-cotton fibres remain resilient.

We advise against the use of harsh bleaching agents, as these can weaken the fabric's composition over time and lead to premature fading of the contrast trim. Proper laundering at the recommended temperature will ensure the garment continues to look its best and provides a professional appearance for its entire lifespan.

When drying, it is preferable to air dry or use a low-heat setting on a tumble dryer. This prevents unnecessary shrinkage and helps to preserve the quality of any custom embroidery or print work applied to the garment, ensuring your branding remains vibrant and intact.
