The Gildan Softstyle adult double piqué polo represents a significant advancement over standard uniform options. Designed for those who require a balance of comfort and a professional aesthetic, this garment is constructed from 100% ringspun cotton. The choice of ringspun yarns ensures a softer feel against the skin compared to traditional cotton, while the double piqué knit provides a textured, substantial finish that holds its shape throughout the working day. This polo is engineered with a modern Euro fit, which offers a sleeker profile through the shoulders and sleeves, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to project a contemporary image.
Performance in a work environment is not just about durability, but also about how a garment feels during a long shift. The double piqué knit of the GD017 is specifically designed to be lofty and touchable, offering a lightweight to medium-weight feel that is breathable yet feels substantial. The side-seamed construction ensures the shirt maintains its structural integrity and doesn't twist after laundering. Furthermore, the rolled-forward topstitched shoulders provide extra strength at a common stress point, ensuring the garment survives the rigours of active work environments.
The GD017 is an exceptionally versatile garment for customisation. Its tight, ringspun knit provides a smooth surface that is perfect for high-definition screen printing or digital transfers, allowing for bold, intricate designs to be reproduced with clarity. For those seeking a more traditional and prestigious finish, the double piqué fabric is ideally suited for embroidery.

As this is a Euro fit garment, it is designed to be more form-fitting than a standard 'boxier' polo. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to layer it over a base layer during colder months, you may wish to consider sizing up. We recommend consulting our size guide to ensure the best fit for your team.
To maintain the professional appearance and technical performance of this polo, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes everyday dirt while preserving the integrity of the cotton fibres and the vibrancy of your custom branding.
When drying, use a medium tumble dry setting. Avoid excessive heat to prevent potential shrinkage and to ensure the shirt retains its tailored Euro fit over time.
If the garment requires bleaching, only use oxygen or non-chlorine bleach. The use of harsh chlorine bleaches will degrade the fabric strength and cause significant discolouration to both the garment and your logo.
It is vital that you do not iron the garment if it has been decorated with a print. Direct heat from an iron can melt or peel the print, causing permanent damage to the design. For embroidered items, iron on the reverse to keep the logo looking sharp.
Finally, avoid dry cleaning or using solvents for stain removal. These chemical processes can break down the natural oils in the cotton and interfere with the adhesives used in many modern printing techniques.
