AS Colour Work Shirt | 5422

Description

The AS Colour Work Shirt is the kind of garment that disappears into the job — which is exactly what a good work shirt should do. At 240GSM, the 100% cotton construction hits the sweet spot between substantial and comfortable. Heavy enough to feel like real workwear, light enough that your team isn’t overheating by noon. The preshrunk fabric means the fit you order is the fit you keep, even after months of commercial laundering.

Who Orders It

This is the shirt for businesses that need their people looking sharp without looking corporate. Coffee roasters and craft breweries use it as the house uniform. Auto shops and fabrication studios order it because the weight holds up to shop conditions. Hospitality groups — hotels, restaurant management, catering companies — use it for front-of-house teams who need to look put-together through a double shift. Trade schools and vocational programs order it for students who need something that performs like real workwear from day one.

Decoration

The 240GSM weight and tight cotton weave make this an excellent embroidery canvas — holds complex logos at high stitch counts without puckering, and the structured fabric keeps your design flat and clean. Screen printing lays down beautifully with minimal ink absorption bleed. DTG works well on this weight, though you’ll get the crispest results on lighter colorways. Left chest placement is standard for uniform programs; back yoke works for larger branding. The collar and button placket are styled clean enough that decoration doesn’t fight with the garment’s natural lines.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best?
Embroidery is the natural choice for work shirts — the 240GSM fabric holds stitching cleanly and the structured front panel gives you a stable surface. Screen printing works well for larger back prints or pocket-position logos. DTG is viable but embroidery tends to read more professionally on button-front workwear.

Is this good for daily uniform use?
Yes — that’s exactly what it’s built for. The preshrunk cotton and reinforced stitching are designed to handle commercial wash cycles without dimensional shift or seam failure. Teams wearing these five days a week report consistent fit and appearance through extended use.

How does the sizing run?
True to size with a regular professional fit — not slim, not boxy. The preshrunk treatment means you can order your standard size without compensating for shrinkage. We recommend ordering a size sample if you’re outfitting a large team with varied body types.

What’s the minimum order for custom decoration?
We work with programs from 12 pieces. Most decorated apparel programs start at 24–50 pieces. Request a quote and we’ll work with your specific order size.
