hello all, I just started my company and was looking into just a t-shirt with my company name on it. Someone told me that it might look better if I used a button up shirt with company name on it, but I think thats impractical in our biz. Just wondering how you dress in your companies ?
 
The last company I worked for had uniforms. I never once wore them. I'm not a fan of button down shirts and "Dickies" style pants.

John Shirt, Three button down front, no collar, with Logo ...
I sweat like a dog in Tee shirts, JMO ...
You might even consider button down front & collor, helps stay cool ... :rolleyes:
 
I prefer the button-down shirts and work pants. T-shirts rarely have pockets, and I carry something to write with, so a higher-grade shirt works out better. I can't stand guys who show up to work with ratty t-shirts and torn-up jeans. I think it looks so unprofessional.
I prefer Aramarks 201 pants (http://www.aramark-uniform.com/wgweb.dll and 102 shirts.
 
How about one of these stylish workman's kilts?

You wear a kilt...EVERYONE is going to ask what you do and they will never forget you!
 
We furnish.
Sweatshirts, T-shirts, polo type shirts and full dress style shirts, up to the employee what style they wear, IMO levis or Dickies are fine.

I do believe being presentable is number one, uniform follows closely, to achieving that look.

I think something along these lines should suit the minimum dress code requirement:

And, don't forget to add this passage to the employee handbook:

"Pants may not be baggy or sag away from the body. Crotch of pants must fit at the natural crotch. Bottom of pants may not extend past the bottom of the shoe or boot. Pants must be worn at the natural waist. Belts are not expressly required, however, if necessary a belt or suspenders will need to be worn to keep pants at the natural waist to assure compliance with this section. Belts should not extend more than 6" from buckle, and suspenders must be of a color that co-ordinates with the uniform colors (blue, black, grey)."

I love going to the supply counter on hot days. I show up in shorts and a polo shirt, while guys who work for real shops are there in long pants and uniform shirts. Makes them wish they were trunk-slammers, too. :)
 
At the shop I work at we wear Aramark button down shirts which I like O.K. There has been quite a stink raised at our very safety conscious comp. over the fact that the shirts are 40% polyester. I'm a thinkin its akin to "only wear cotton when you fly":grin: so when that sucker crashes your shirt doesn't melt to your body. Any one stick (no pun intended) to 100% cotton. I think, but ain't sure, that OSHA has something to say about it

I try and wear only 100% cotton or leather.
No syntethics ( with one exception that I am aware of *? )

Rayon, polyester, etc ...can become a "second skin" under certain conditions...although this may be true for most fabrics, the conditions that would cause a sysnthetic second skin are lower.


*? Polypropelyne (sp?) socks in the winter under my double layer of cotton.
