Polo shirts are pique knit cotton or polyester blend with a collared button placket, some with contrast panels on the sleeves or sides, and several with UV treatment or moisture-wicking properties for outdoor active wear. Sizes run from 4 to 14 across most styles. School shirts are the structured button-front option for formal uniform programmes. Tee shirts cover the casual end of the range. Standard cotton comes in up to 22 colour options,, surf tees with a relaxed jersey cut, and stretch cotton with a spandex blend for a closer fit. Screen printing and full colour transfers work across all three shirt types. Embroidery suits polo and school shirts where a stitched logo on the chest reads as a proper uniform finish.
Polo shirts ordered in club colours get worn well beyond the event they're ordered for. Kids wear them to training, to school mufti days, and on weekends right through the entire season, which means the school or club logo stays consistently in front of parents, coaches, and other families week after week, long after the initial order was first placed.
Cotton-polyester blend polo shirts wash well and hold their shape reliably through a full school term or sporting club season.
Good to Know
What shirt type suits a school uniform programme?
Polo shirts and school shirts both work for uniform programmes, with polo shirts the more common choice for primary schools and sports days. School shirts suit more formal settings where a collar and full button front are part of the dress code.
Do sporting clubs order polo shirts or tee shirts?
Polo shirts are the more common club order because the collar and contrast panelling give them a uniform look that tee shirts don't carry. Tee shirts suit single-event runs like sports carnivals, fun runs, and school events where a lower-cost printed garment is the right fit.
What size range does the range cover?
Most styles in the range cover sizes 4 through to 14, with some polo shirt styles extending further in either direction. Individual product pages show the complete size run available for each style.
Which branding method suits polo shirts used as uniforms?
Embroidery on the chest is the standard for polo shirts used as uniforms, while screen printing suits back-of-shirt designs and full-front artwork on tee shirts. Full colour transfers handle photographic or multi-colour artwork on any shirt type.
