Product Information

Full details

The Portwest Two-Tone Long Sleeved Cotton Comfort T-Shirt is designed for adult professionals seeking durable, breathable workwear. Its key benefit is superior comfort and visibility, making it ideal for demanding environments. A potential caveat is that while comfortable, it's a standard fit and may not suit those preferring a very loose or very fitted style. This garment features moisture-wicking fabric, reflective tape for enhanced safety, UPF 35+ sun protection, a handy chest pocket, and contrast panels to mask dirt.

FAQs

What is the main material of this t-shirt?

The t-shirt is made from a blend of 55% Cotton and 45% Polyester, weighing 175g.

Is this t-shirt suitable for all types of work environments?

It is ideal for environments requiring high visibility and comfortable, breathable workwear, such as construction, logistics, and outdoor services. It is not designed for heavy chemical or impact protection.

How does the two-tone design help?

The contrast panels, typically on the lower half, are designed to minimise the visual impact of dirt and stains, helping the garment look cleaner for longer in work settings.

What does UPF 35+ mean?

UPF 35+ means the fabric is rated to block over 97% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, providing good protection against sun exposure.

How should I wash this t-shirt to maintain its properties?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Follow standard laundry practices, but be aware that high-visibility certifications are typically maintained up to 50 washes.

Does this t-shirt comply with railway industry standards?

Yes, the orange variant of this t-shirt complies with RIS 3279-TOM, which is specific to the rail industry. The yellow variant complies with EN ISO 20471.

What are the key certifications for this garment?

The primary certifications are EN ISO 20471 Class 2 for general high visibility, and RIS-3279-TOM ISSUE 1 for the orange colour variant specifically for the rail industry.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tape losing reflectivity

Ensure washing instructions are followed precisely. Avoid using harsh detergents or excessive heat during washing and drying. High-visibility standards are maintained up to 50 washes; beyond this, reflectivity may naturally degrade.

Garment feels less breathable over time

Check for and clean any accumulated dirt or residue in the fabric weave. Ensure the garment is fully dry after washing. Over time, heavy soiling can impact fabric performance.

Sizing feels incorrect

Refer to the Portwest sizing chart for accurate measurements. The 'Regular' fit is designed for standard comfort; consider the fit intended for your specific work environment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent breathability and comfort due to cotton blend.
  • High visibility features enhance worker safety.
  • Durable construction designed for regular work use.
  • Moisture-wicking fabric keeps the wearer dry.
  • UPF rating offers good sun protection.

Cons

  • Standard fit may not be ideal for all body types.
  • Long sleeves might be too warm for very hot climates.
  • While contrast panels hide dirt, the main fabric can still show stains.
  • Certification is primarily for visibility, not heavy-duty protection against impacts or chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This t-shirt requires no setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is designed for universal compatibility with standard workwear requirements.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine wash at 40°C (104°F).
  • Do not bleach.
  • Tumble dry on a low heat setting.
  • Iron at a medium temperature.
  • Do not dry clean.
  • Wash according to EN ISO 20471 guidelines, which may include specific washing cycles to maintain reflectivity. Wash with similar colours.
  • Certified to EN ISO 20471 after 50 washes, indicating the high-visibility properties are maintained through regular care up to this limit.
