283289008 - Miller Electric True Blue Twill Button-Down Shirt, Men's 3XL

Technical Apparel Specifications

The Miller 283289008 Twill Dress Shirt is a heavy-duty garment designed for industrial professionals requiring a balance of durability and formal presentation. This specific unit is sized XXXL (3XL), catering to larger builds or those requiring a loose, non-restrictive fit for comfort during extended wear. The garment utilizes a twill weave fabric, characterized by its diagonal rib pattern. Twill is mechanically superior to plain weaves in terms of durability and opacity, making it an ideal choice for work environments where clothing is subjected to frequent movement and friction.

Material and Construction:
While specific fiber content percentages may vary, industrial twill shirts are typically engineered from a cotton-polyester blend. This combination leverages the breathability and softness of cotton with the tensile strength and wrinkle resistance of polyester. The fabric is dyed in Miller's proprietary "True Blue" shade, ensuring colorfastness and resistance to fading over repeated wash cycles. The shirt features a standard button-down front closure with reinforced stitching at stress points, such as the buttonholes and pocket corners, to prevent premature failure.

Functional Design:
This shirt includes a functional chest pocket, providing essential utility for carrying pens, soapstone, small gauges, or notepads—critical tools for shop supervisors and estimators. The collar is designed to hold its shape, maintaining a professional silhouette throughout the workday. The long sleeves feature adjustable cuffs, allowing the wearer to secure them at the wrist or roll them up as tasks require. The fabric weight is selected to provide coverage and warmth without causing overheating in climate-controlled shop offices.

Application and Care:
It is important to note that unless explicitly labeled as FR (Flame Resistant), this twill dress shirt is not PPE and should not be worn as a primary outer layer during welding or cutting operations where sparks and spatter are present. It is intended for administrative tasks, supervision, and general wear. Maintenance is straightforward, as the twill material is generally machine washable and resistant to shrinking when care instructions are followed. This shirt serves as a durable uniform solution for personnel representing the Miller Electric brand.
