Today’s modern office environment embraces individuality and comfort, making branded clothing a strategic tool for both employers and employees. Companies can use subtle brand elements on high-quality, comfortable pieces like golf shirts, jerseys, or scarves to foster a sense of unity and belonging. Employees, in turn, benefit from attire that reflects their personal style while adhering to professional standards. At XCO Group, we offer a wide range of corporate and lifestyle clothing that creates a shared identity among staff.
To better understand how the concept of uniforms has evolved into the stylish, comfortable, modern branded clothing worn today, let us at XCO Group take you on a journey of discovery to find out how the introduction of lighter, more breathable fabrics, interchangeable wardrobes, and mass production has changed the staid approach towards formal corporate wear.
Branded Clothing: The Evolution of Uniformed Workwear
While blue jeans and steel-toed boots might first pop into your head, workwear has shed its industrial revolution skin and evolved into something much more diverse. It all began with practicality, driven by the need for tough clothes that could handle the sweat and grime of manual labour. Back in the 19th century, workers relied on heavy cotton and wool, stitched at home by local tailors, prioritising function over fashion. With the mid-19th century came industrialisation, completely changing the game. Mass production and new techniques made branded clothing more accessible, cheaper, and easier to manufacture, paving the way for factories and the demand for branded workwear.
The 20th century saw workwear shed its purely utilitarian skin and combine the latest fashion trends. Innovative manufacturing techniques, such as those embraced by us at XCO Group, have turned corporate clothing on its head by combining both functionality and fashion. Workwear no longer just protects you from the elements; it makes a statement.
Command Attention When Wearing an XCO Wardrobe
At XCO Group, we understand the pressures of modern-day living and have incorporated interchangeable branded clothing items into our corporate and lifestyle range. We don’t want you to miss an important event or meeting because you don’t have time to change. With our corporate clothing range, you can comfortably pair sneakers with chinos and have a tailored jacket on standby.
Formal meetings to attend? No problem. Our dresses and tailored skirts make a statement in the office or boardroom. If polished casual ensembles suit your business, simply add your company logo to a smart-casual button-up shirt or T-shirt from our lifestyle clothing range. From presentations in front of board members to representing your company at a corporate-sponsored sports event, we will make sure that you are fashionably attired.
