About Irish Army Irish Army - Youth Classic Tee
What is Irish Army - Youth Classic Tee?
The Irish Army Youth Classic Tee is a purpose-built, crew-neck shirt that balances comfort, durability, and style for children aged 6-12. Constructed from 100 % ring-spun cotton (with a sport-grey option that blends 10 % polyester), the fabric weight of 5.3 oz/yd² (180 g/m²) offers a soft hand-feel while standing up to daily playground wear. The material is pre-shrunk, OEKO-TX certified, and dyed with low-impact pigments, ensuring colourfastness and compliance with EU safety standards for formaldehyde, phthalates, lead, and flammability. Each shirt is made on demand, reducing excess inventory and supporting a more sustainable supply chain. The shirt’s reinforced stitching at the hem and sleeves adds extra resilience for frequent washing, while the classic cut accommodates growth, allowing parents to size up without sacrificing fit. Available in a neutral white that reads off-white and a versatile sport-grey, the tee integrates seamlessly into any child’s capsule wardrobe.

Frequently Asked Questions
What material is the Irish Army Youth Classic Tee made from?
▾
The tee is constructed from 100 % ring-spun cotton, with a sport-grey option that blends 10 % polyester. The fabric weight is 5.3 oz per square yard (180 g/m²), giving a soft yet durable feel. It is pre-shrunk and dyed with OEKO-TX certified low-impact pigments, meeting EU safety standards.
Does the shirt shrink after washing?
▾
Because the fabric is pre-shrunk, the tee experiences minimal change in size after the first few washes. The cotton fibers have been treated to reduce further shrinkage, so parents can expect the shirt to retain its original dimensions and fit, even with regular laundering in warm water.
How does the tee perform in active play?
▾
The breathable cotton allows heat to escape while the reinforced stitching at the hem and sleeves withstands the tug-of-war of playground games. Kids report that the shirt stays comfortable during recess, sports practice, and outdoor adventures, and it holds up after repeated washes without pilling.
Is the Irish Army Youth Classic Tee safe for sensitive skin?
▾
The tee is OEKO-TX certified, meaning the dyes are low-impact and free from harmful chemicals. It also meets EU limits for formaldehyde, phthalates, lead, and flammability. The tear-away tag eliminates irritation, making it suitable for children with sensitive skin or allergies.
Can I order the tee in bulk for a school group?
▾
Bulk orders are possible through the retailer’s on-demand production system, but each shirt is made individually, so lead times may be longer than standard stock items. Contact the seller for volume pricing and estimated delivery dates before placing a large order.
