Workwear & Uniforms
FAQs about choosing the right garments, sizing, compliance options, and how to kit out your team consistently.
What’s the best way to kit out my team? +
The easiest way is to choose a core uniform set (for example t-shirt/polo + hoodie/fleece + trousers), then decide on your branding (print or embroidery).
If you tell us your industry, job roles, and working conditions, we’ll recommend a setup that’s practical, durable, and consistent across the team.
Do you offer workwear bundles? +
Yes — we offer workwear bundles to make ordering easier and more cost-effective when kitting out a team.

Can you help me choose between a polo, t-shirt, sweatshirt, or hoodie? +
Yes — the best choice depends on your working environment:
- T-shirts: best for comfort and warmer work, great for larger prints.
- Polos: smarter uniform look, ideal for embroidery and front-of-house roles.
- Sweatshirts/hoodies: warmer, durable layers for outdoor work or colder environments.
If you’re unsure, tell us what your team does day-to-day and we’ll advise.
Are your garments suitable for frequent washing (workwear use)? +
Yes — we supply reputable workwear brands and can recommend garments suited to regular workwear washing.
Care instructions vary by product, so if you need something for tougher wash routines, tell us and we’ll point you to the most suitable options.
Do you provide hi-vis and safety clothing? +
Yes — we can supply hi-vis and safety garments and customise them where suitable.
If you need to meet specific standards, we can recommend hi-vis options to achieve certain classifications, including guidance on which garment combinations are required to reach the correct class.
Do you offer flame-retardant clothing? +
Yes — we can supply flame-retardant clothing where safety or compliance requirements apply.
If you tell us the environment it’s being used in and any standards you need to meet, we’ll recommend suitable options.
How do I choose the right sizes for a team order? +
We recommend checking the product size guide and collecting staff sizes in advance (especially when mixing brands or fits).
If you’re placing a larger order and want help reducing sizing issues, contact us and we’ll advise the best approach.
Can we mix men’s and women’s fits in one order? +
Yes — you can mix men’s and women’s fits, sizes, and garment styles within the same order so everyone gets the right fit and comfort.
Can you set us up with a uniform ordering portal for staff? +
Yes — we can discuss setting up a uniform ordering portal so staff can reorder approved items easily and consistently.
To chat this through, email us at info@black-mountain.co.uk.
Can you recommend print vs embroidery for workwear? +
Yes — we’ll recommend the best method based on your logo, garment, and working environment:
- Embroidery: premium, durable and ideal for polos, fleeces, softshells, hats and beanies.
- DTF print: ideal for larger designs, full colour logos, gradients and detailed artwork.
Send us your logo and garment choices and we’ll advise the best option.
Can I get a quote for a bulk/team order? +
Yes — send us quantities, garment choices (or what you need them for), logo(s), and the placements required.
We’ll come back with the best-value options and confirm lead times before we proceed.
