Fabric

Poplin

Uses fine yarns and a simple over-and-under weave technique to create a durable fabric with a smooth, crisp texture. The structure of the weave means that the fabric also has very little sheen, making it ideal for professional setting.

Oxford

A basket-weave construction of cotton or cotton blend with a textured finish that's both durable and naturally wrinkle resistant. When one of the threads is kept undyed or plain, this weave can create a distinctive, lustrous look.

Twill

A hardwearing weave with diagonal, parallel ridges. Twill fabrics typically have a level of shine to them depending on the weave tension, fabric colour and cotton type used. This is a softer fabric that drapes well, is easy to iron and resists creasing.

Sleeve

Long sleeve

Long sleeve shirts are a uniform staple, perfect worn alone or accompanied with a suit jacket. They provide extra protection against the cold in winter and from the sun in summer compared to a short or rolled sleeve option.

Short sleeve

Short sleeves are great uniform for the summer months or warmer working environments. They are also a great alternative for environments where health and safety require shorter sleeves but a smart look is still essential.

3/4 Sleeve

A ¾ sleeve allows for a more fashionable look whilst still being smart. ¾ sleeve styles are perfect for layering and, therefore, a great garment choice for seasonal transitioning.
