Performance Sports T-Shirts & Athletic Polos

Performance t-shirts are specifically engineered for physical activity, unlike standard cotton shirts which tend to absorb and retain moisture. Our athletic t-shirt range utilises advanced synthetic fibres, primarily 100% polyester, which feature moisture-wicking technology. This process pulls sweat away from the skin to the surface of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable. Additionally, brands like Stedman and Spiro incorporate features such as Active-Dry technology and breathable mesh panels, which are essential for temperature regulation during high-intensity gym sessions or outdoor sports.

Yes, our entire range of performance and sports t-shirts is designed with customisation in mind. The smooth, fine-knit surfaces of our polyester and jersey garments provide an excellent canvas for various decoration methods, including screen printing, DTF (Direct to Film), and embroidery. Whether you are looking to create a custom gym t-shirt for a fitness brand or a custom athletic t-shirt for a local sports club, these products are built to withstand the customisation process while maintaining their technical properties. We offer a variety of styles, including raglan sleeves and contrast panelling, to help your team stand out.

Absolutely. Our performance t-shirt collection is curated to handle the rigours of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), weightlifting, and cardio. Features such as flatlock stitching, found in our Tombo 1/4 zip tops, help to minimise friction and prevent chafing during repetitive movements. The high-tech stretch fabrics used by brands like Spiro ensure brilliant shape retention and freedom of movement. With lightweight options starting around 135-140gsm, these shirts provide a feather-weight feel that won't weigh you down, making them the ideal choice for any demanding gym environment.

Choosing the right fabric weight depends on your specific activity and environment. For high-cardio activities where maximum breathability is required, a lightweight fabric around 135gsm to 140gsm, such as the Spiro Aircool or Stedman ST8000, is often preferred as it allows for rapid heat dissipation. For outdoor training or sports that require a bit more durability and coverage, a mid-weight fabric around 160gsm, like the Stedman Ultimate Performance tee, offers a more substantial feel without sacrificing moisture-wicking capabilities. We provide a range of weights to ensure you find the perfect balance of comfort and performance.
