Product Overview
The Asquith & Fox Men's classic fit tipped polo is a sophisticated iteration of a workwear essential, designed for those who require a uniform that balances tradition with a modern, refined edge. Featuring a classic fit that accommodates a wide range of body types comfortably, this polo is distinguished by its iconic contrast tipping on both the collar and the sleeves. This subtle detail elevates the garment from a standard utility item to an opulent addition to a professional wardrobe, making it particularly effective for client-facing roles where first impressions are paramount.
Key Features
- Contrast Tipping: The elegant tipping on the collar and cuffs provides a coordinated and premium look, ensuring your team presents a unified and stylish image.
- Knitted Collar and Cuffs: These components are engineered to retain their shape and structure, preventing the 'rolling' or stretching often associated with lower-quality garments.
- Side Vents: Integrated side vents at the hem offer enhanced ease of movement and allow the polo to sit more naturally when worn untucked or over trousers.
- Two-Button Placket: This traditional design choice allows for adjustable ventilation and a customisable level of formality to suit the specific working environment.
Design & Performance
This medium-weight polo is primarily constructed from ringspun combed cotton. The combing process is a technical refinement that removes shorter, pricklier fibres and aligns the remaining long fibres, resulting in a fabric that is significantly smoother and more durable than standard cotton. This ensures the garment feels soft against the skin, reducing irritation during long shifts. For those opting for Charcoal or Heather variations, a cotton-polyester blend is utilised to provide additional resilience and improved colour fastness.
The inclusion of a cut-away or removable brand label is a deliberate design choice for the corporate market. This allows for seamless rebranding, ensuring that your company's own identity remains the primary focus of the garment. The classic fit ensures that the polo remains professional in silhouette while providing enough room for active work tasks.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Asquith & Fox Men's classic fit tipped polo is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery, and we can advise on the best approach based on your branding requirements. Embroidery is highly recommended for creating a superior, professional look. It is the ideal method for applying company logos or staff names, offering a durable and three-dimensional finish that stands up well to the demands of a busy workplace.
For larger, more vibrant designs or promotional messaging, printing is an excellent alternative. The smooth, combed surface of the fabric allows for high-definition print results that remain sharp and clear. All customisation is performed in-house at our Telford facility, where our specialist team, established in 1976, oversees every detail to ensure your workwear is produced to the highest standards.
Use Cases
Due to its refined aesthetic, this tipped polo is perfectly suited for the hospitality industry, including front-of-house roles in hotels, restaurants, and bars. It is also a popular choice for corporate leisurewear, golf societies, and sales teams who require a smart-casual uniform that projects competence and attention to detail. The wide size range from Small to 3XL ensures it is a versatile option for diverse workforces.

Practical Advice
The classic fit of this polo is designed to be true to size. For team members who prefer a more relaxed fit for physical tasks, we recommend reviewing the sizing guide and perhaps opting for one size larger than their standard measurement. This medium-weight fabric layers excellently under fleeces or softshell jackets, making it a versatile choice for all seasons.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional appearance of your polo, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at this temperature is crucial as it helps to preserve the cotton fibres and prevents the contrast tipping from bleeding or fading prematurely. High-temperature washing can cause the natural cotton to shrink and may degrade the quality of any applied print or embroidery.
When drying, it is best to air dry the garment rather than using a tumble dryer. Excessive heat in a dryer can lead to the fabric becoming brittle and may cause the knitted collar to lose its shape. Should ironing be required, do so on a medium heat setting and avoid ironing directly over any printed or embroidered areas to prevent damage to the customisation.
