Blue Whale Hi Vis All Orange Cotton Twill Shirt β Custom Logo
- Preferred files: transparent PNG at 300 DPI at the finished print size, vector artwork — AI, EPS or SVG — or a print-ready PDF.
- We cannot print from: screenshots, photos of a logo or low-resolution web images. Please send the original artwork file instead.
- If your file needs background removal, cleanup or redrawing, we’ll contact you before production. Any artwork fee is quoted in advance and only proceeds with your approval.
- Text only? Business name, staff names or a slogan? Type it in the notes below and we set it for free.
- No file ready? Order now and email it to hello@dtfmotion.com.au with your order number. Every order gets a free mockup to approve before we print.
Please confirm your print size. A file's pixel dimensions are not its print size — the same logo can be printed at 5 cm or 25 cm. Tell us the width you want in cm above; otherwise we use the standard size for that position and show it in your free mockup.
Mix any custom apparel — different garments, colours and sizes all count toward the same total. Tees, polos and hi vis in one cart add up together, so a whole crew reaches the next tier faster.

Print positions on this shirt
- Solid orange front and back means there is no fluoro/contrast seam to work around, so this shirt takes a bigger, freer print than a two-tone hi vis garment
- We do not press over a pocket flap β a double layer of drill with a stud under it will not sit flat on the platen. Chest logos go in the strip between the collar and the pocket flaps, about 9 Γ 6 cm. A crest or a stacked logo works; a wide banner does not
- The back is where the space is β one clean unbroken panel, up to about 28 Γ 20 cm. That is where a business name belongs on this shirt
- Sleeve prints go on the upper sleeve, up to about 8 Γ 15 cm. The pen pocket sits on the wearerβs left sleeve, so we press clear of it or use the right sleeve β tell us in the notes if you have a preference
- Solid orange is a strong background. Light artwork and white lettering read best; mid-oranges and reds will fight the garment

Garment & specs
- Style code: Blue Whale C85 (SKU format C85-SOR-SIZE)
- 155gsm 100% cotton twill, pre-shrunk β light for a drill shirt, and cotton does not melt the way polyester does
- Regular fit, long sleeve, twin chest pockets with button-up flaps, pen pocket on the left sleeve
- Cotton mesh air-flow vents under both arms
- Day use only. Complies with AS/NZS 1906.4:2023 and AS/NZS 4602.1:2024 Class D. There is no reflective tape on this shirt, so it is not rated for night work β if your site requires a day/night garment, this is not it
- UPF 50+, protection category Excellent
- Not flame resistant. Cotton does not melt onto skin, which is why a lot of trades prefer it, but this shirt carries no FR rating and is not a substitute for FR workwear
- 1 colour: Safety Orange, solid front and back. Sizes XSβ5XL
- Prefer a two-tone shirt with a navy lower body? See the C81, same fabric and cut
Print & care
We print with DTF (direct-to-film) β full colour, no colour limit, no setup fee, and it sits well on cotton drill. Our transfers are tested for 50+ washes when pressed and cared for as directed.
- Wash inside out, cold or warm (max 40Β°C), gentle cycle
- No bleach and no fabric softener on the print
- Hang dry β a hot dryer is the fastest way to shorten the life of any print
- Never iron over the print
- Leave 24 hours before the first wash
- Pre-shrunk cotton still relaxes a little on the first wash; buy the size you measure, not one down
Artwork
- Best files: PNG with a transparent background, or vector β AI, EPS, PDF or SVG. These print exactly as supplied
- JPGs, screenshots and photos of a logo are still accepted. If the background has to be cut out an artwork fee may apply β we always quote before we start and you can approve or decline
- Text only β a business name, a role, or numbers? Type it into the notes on this page and we set it for free
- 300 DPI at the final print size
- Minimum line thickness 0.5 mm so fine detail holds
- White in your artwork prints as white ink β on solid orange that is usually exactly what you want
- Up to 20 MB per file through the uploader; larger files, just email them

|---|---|---|
| XS | 37 | 52 |
| S | 38 | 55 |
| M | 40 | 58 |
| L | 42 | 61.5 |

| 3XL | 48 | 72 |
| 4XL | 50 | 76 |

Blue Whale publishes collar and chest only for this style; we have not invented a sleeve-length column. Blue Whale labels the 46 cm collar XXL; we list it as 2XL so it sorts with the rest of our range.
Sizing and returns: printed garments are made to order, so we cannot accept change-of-mind returns or size swaps. We will replace or refund anything with a print or garment fault. Kitting out a whole crew? Email hello@dtfmotion.com.au β we can help you work out a size run before you commit.
