Frequently Asked Questions
Is Orange a hi vis colour?
Yes. Orange is the day hi vis option; Navy Blue and Beige are standard workwear colours.
How do I choose my size?
Check the Size Guide on this page and compare it with a shirt that fits you well; if you are between sizes or wear a layer underneath, we recommend sizing up.
Can I order for a team or add a logo?
Yes. Mix colours and sizes in one order; for larger crews see Bulk Orders, and for embroidery or print see Custom Logo.
More common questions
What is the benefit of underarm or back vents?
Vent panels improve airflow and reduce body heat while working. This feature helps workers stay comfortable during physical tasks or in hot environments.
Do long sleeve work shirts help with sun protection?
Yes. Long sleeves provide additional skin coverage and can help reduce direct sun exposure. For a specific level of UV protection, check the product's stated UPF rating rather than relying on fabric type alone.
Why choose a work shirt instead of a polo?
Work shirts can provide more coverage, chest-pocket storage and traditional workwear construction, while polos can suit lighter or more presentation-focused uniforms. The better option depends on the task, climate, fabric and workplace requirements.
Can Big Bee workwear be customised with printing or embroidery?
Many Big Bee garments can be customised with printing or embroidery, but the best method depends on the fabric, garment construction, reflective elements and logo placement. We review the garment and artwork before confirming the decoration method for a custom order.
