Product Overview
The Front Row Striped Jersey polo shirt is a well-engineered piece of apparel that bridges the gap between casual comfort and professional presentation. Constructed from a substantial, heavyweight Jersey fabric, this 100% cotton garment provides a softer feel than traditional piqué polos while maintaining the structure required for a professional uniform. The tag-free design ensures a clean finish and absolute comfort at the neckline, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to provide high-quality branded apparel for their team.
Key Features
- The stretch ribbed collar and cuffs allow the garment to retain its shape after repeated wear and washing, ensuring your team maintains a consistent, tidy appearance throughout the working day.
- A three-button placket featuring navy buttons and a Jersey collar stand provides a structured look that mimics a traditional shirt, elevating the overall aesthetic beyond a standard leisure item.
- Herringbone taped side vents reinforce the side seams at high-stress points, preventing the fabric from tearing while allowing for greater freedom of movement during active tasks.
- Twin-needle stitching at the hem provides a durable finish that resists fraying, ensuring the garment remains in service for longer.
- The tag-free construction is designed for maximum comfort and simplifies the process for those looking to add their own internal branding.
Design & Performance
This polo shirt is manufactured from a 100% cotton single Jersey fabric, which offers a smooth, uniform surface that feels exceptionally soft against the skin. Unlike thinner alternatives, the heavyweight nature of this Jersey provides a reassuring sense of quality and longevity. The striped design is classic and professional, while the inclusion of a collar stand—typically found on formal shirts—ensures the collar sits correctly and remains upright, even when worn under a jumper or jacket. The fabric's natural breathability ensures comfort during long shifts, making it a practical choice for all-day wear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of the single Jersey fabric makes this polo shirt an ideal canvas for both print and embroidery. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, handles all customisation in-house to ensure your brand is represented with precision.
Embroidery is highly recommended for logos and individual names, providing a sophisticated, long-lasting finish that reinforces your professional authority. For larger, more vibrant designs or promotional messaging, our high-quality printing processes ensure bold colours and crisp lines that stand out. Whether you require the intricate detail of embroidery or the visual impact of print, this garment is designed to showcase your branding to a superior standard.
Use Cases
This versatile polo shirt is particularly suited for front-of-house staff, retail teams, and corporate leisurewear. Its refined striped pattern and structured collar make it a popular choice for organisations that require a step up from a basic t-shirt without moving into formal shirting. It is equally suitable for customer-facing office roles, team events, or as part of a high-end service uniform in the hospitality sector.

Practical Advice
This garment is available in a size range from XS to 2XL. We suggest reviewing the sizing guide to ensure an accurate fit, as the heavyweight Jersey fabric has less natural stretch than lighter-weight alternatives. This polo layers effectively under a sweatshirt or softshell jacket, where the structured collar stand prevents the collar from collapsing under the weight of outer layers.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and appearance of this cotton garment, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. It is essential to wash dark colours separately to prevent dye transfer, ensuring the white stripes remain crisp and clear. We advise washing and drying the garment inside out to protect the outer surface and any custom branding from unnecessary abrasion during the cycle.
When drying, use a tumble dryer on a low heat setting or air dry. It is vital to dry the polo out of direct heat and sunlight, as excessive heat can cause natural cotton fibres to shrink and UV rays may cause the colours to fade over time. For the best finish, iron on a medium (two-dot) setting and always iron on the reverse of any decoration to avoid damaging the print or embroidery. Do not use bleach, as this will degrade the cotton fibres and ruin the colouration of the stripes.
