Technical work T-shirt in 160 g/m² 100% polyester bird-eye fabric. Bird-eye is a knit with micro-perforations that wicks moisture outwards instead of retaining it, unlike cotton. Two-tone as standard, with side panels and inner sleeves in a contrast colour and 16 combinations.
✅ Features
Bird-eye fabric: micro-perforated knit that wicks sweat away and dries quickly. The T-shirt does not cling.

Contrast side panels and inner sleeves: the two-tone design is not just aesthetic, it defines the silhouette.
Crew neck with reinforced seam cover using base fabric tape, so it does not stretch out.
16 combinations from the Total Match and Fluor Match lines.
Sizes from S to 3XL.
👷 Suitable for
Construction, installations and maintenance in summer.

Gardening and municipal services.

🧺 Care
Machine wash at 30° or 40°, inside out.
No fabric softener: this is what ruins a technical T-shirt. Softener clogs the bird-eye micro-perforations and the garment stops wicking moisture.
Air dry; being polyester, it is dry in an hour.
Do not iron.
💡 Tip: If your team is used to the 5010 cotton T-shirt, warn them about the change: a polyester technical T-shirt feels more comfortable when you sweat — it doesn't cling, it dries by itself — but it picks up odour sooner than cotton, because polyester retains the bacteria that cause it. The solution is not more softener (that ruins it), but washing it the same day and not leaving it damp in the locker.
Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use fabric softener?
No. It clogs the micro-perforations and the garment stops breathing. It is what ruins a technical T-shirt the most.
