Shop Industrial Mechanic Shirts by Design
For the classic industrial shop-shirt style, compare “Hard Work”, “Gambler” and “Lucky”. Each product page provides its own size chart and construction details.
Looking for a different feel? Compare the performance button-up selection. Our industrial and Performance Tech collar comparison explains the difference between button-front shirts, button-down collars and hidden snaps.
How to Compare Fit and Size
Start with the measurement chart on the exact product. DBM collared-shirt listings may show garment measurements such as chest width, body length, and sleeve length. Compare those numbers with a similar shirt that fits you well, using the same measurement method. Standard and tall sizes are available on select products only.
Workwear-Inspired, Not One Universal Work Shirt
Features differ across the collection. A heavy-duty poly/cotton shop shirt, a lightweight four-way-stretch button-up, and a mesh performance polo are built differently. Choose according to your intended use, workplace dress rules, climate, and preferred fit. Unless a listing explicitly states otherwise, do not treat apparel as protective equipment.
Care for Mechanic Shirts and Performance Fabrics
Follow the sewn-in label and product-page care directions. Some current shirts call for machine washing cold and hanging to dry or tumbling on low; some performance polos also say not to iron. These directions are product-specific, so check before washing or applying heat.
