Product Overview
The Warrior Pocket Tabard is a functional staple for any professional environment where hygiene and practicality are paramount. Designed as a versatile protective layer, this tabard provides an effective barrier between your primary workwear and the demands of your shift. Whether you are managing a busy kitchen or overseeing healthcare facilities, the Warrior Tabard ensures you remain well-presented while offering the utility needed to perform your tasks efficiently.
Key Features
- The large patch pocket is positioned for easy access, providing ample space for essential tools such as order pads, cleaning supplies, or mobile devices.
- Adjustable stud side tabs allow the wearer to find a secure and comfortable fit, ensuring the garment moves with you rather than hindering your progress.
- A length of 74cm provides generous coverage, protecting the front and rear of your clothing from splashes, spills, and general workspace debris.
- The capability for an 85°C wash ensures that even the most stubborn industrial stains and bacteria are effectively neutralised, maintaining high standards of cleanliness.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a resilient blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this tabard is engineered for the rigours of frequent laundering. This lightweight fabric is particularly advantageous in warm environments such as kitchens or hospitals, where breathability is essential for comfort during long shifts. The polyester component ensures the garment retains its shape and colour over time, while the cotton provides a soft, professional feel against the skin. Reinforced at stress points, the tabard is designed to endure the daily pull and stretch of a busy working day without compromising its structural integrity.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This tabard is an ideal candidate for customisation, allowing your staff to represent your brand with clarity. For a sophisticated and durable finish, we recommend embroidery; it is perfect for company logos or individual names and stands up exceptionally well to the high-temperature washing this garment requires. If you prefer a larger, bolder design to ensure your team is easily identifiable from a distance, our professional printing service is an excellent alternative. Our expert in-house team in Telford has been handling garment customisation since 1976, ensuring your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
The Warrior Pocket Tabard is a preferred choice for the hospitality and catering sectors, providing a clean and uniform look for cafeteria and kitchen staff. It is also an essential item for cleaning professionals and healthcare workers who require a lightweight, high-temperature washable layer that can be easily changed between tasks. Its simple yet effective design makes it equally suitable for retail environments where light protection and branding are necessary.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please consider the garments you will be wearing beneath the tabard. While the adjustable side tabs offer significant flexibility, we recommend choosing a size that allows for easy movement if you frequently wear medium-weight jumpers or sweatshirts. Ensure the side studs are correctly aligned before fastening to prevent unnecessary strain on the fabric during active tasks.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of your Warrior Pocket Tabard and maintain its hygienic properties, we recommend a high-temperature wash at 85°C. This temperature is specifically required to break down fats, oils, and biological matter often found in catering and clinical settings. Neglecting to wash at high temperatures can result in bacteria buildup and a gradual dulling of the fabric’s appearance.
Avoid the use of industrial bleaching agents unless absolutely necessary, as these can weaken the poly/cotton fibres over time. When drying, it is best to tumble dry on a low heat or hang the garment to air dry. Excessive heat in a dryer can make the polyester components brittle, leading to premature wear. Ironing on a medium setting will help maintain the crisp, professional aesthetic your business demands.
