Product Overview
The Henbury HB305 Stretch Pique Polo Shirt represents a significant advancement in corporate and hospitality attire. Engineered with a focus on both aesthetics and mobility, this polo is crafted from a sophisticated stretch micro-pique fabric. Unlike traditional pique shirts that can feel restrictive, the HB305 is designed for a slim, modern fit that complements a professional image while providing the flexibility required for an active workday.
Key Features
- The slim-fitting design ensures a sharp, contemporary profile suitable for modern business environments.
- The stretch micro-pique fabric provides essential flexibility, allowing the wearer to move freely without the garment losing its shape.
- A flat knit collar and two-button placket with dyed-to-match buttons offer a refined and consistent aesthetic.
- Side vents are integrated into the hem to improve ease of movement and provide a more comfortable fit over the hips.
Design & Performance
The technical excellence of this polo lies in its fabric composition: a blend of 96% cotton and 4% elastane. This medium-weight material combines the natural breathability and soft hand-feel of cotton with the performance benefits of elastane. The inclusion of elastane provides 'recovery' properties, meaning the shirt stretches with the body but returns to its original silhouette, preventing the sagging often associated with standard cotton polos. The micro-pique weave is tightly constructed, offering a smoother surface that is both durable and comfortable against the skin.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The HB305 is a premier choice for customisation. For businesses seeking a superior, long-lasting professional appearance, embroidery is highly recommended. The stable micro-pique weave is an ideal base for high-definition stitching of logos and staff names. For larger, more vibrant branding, our high-quality printing processes offer a sharp finish that maintains its integrity. All customisation is managed by our expert in-house team in Telford, drawing on MyWorkwear’s heritage which dates back to 1976.
Use Cases
This polo shirt is particularly effective for front-of-house hospitality staff, corporate sales teams, and management professionals who require a garment that transitions seamlessly from a desk to a client-facing environment. It is equally suited for any role that demands a unified, professional appearance without sacrificing comfort.

Practical Advice
As this is a slim-fit garment, we advise checking the sizing guide carefully before ordering. Those who prefer a more traditional, relaxed fit may find that selecting one size larger than their usual measurement provides the desired comfort while still maintaining a professional look.
Caring for your product
To preserve the elasticity and colour of the garment, we recommend a 40°C synthetic wash cycle. This temperature is sufficient for cleaning while protecting the elastane fibres from heat degradation, ensuring the shirt retains its stretch properties for longer.
Do not use bleach, as this will compromise the fabric's structural integrity and lead to premature wear. This garment should not be tumble dried, as the high heat can damage the elastane and cause shrinkage. Instead, we recommend reshaping the polo while damp and allowing it to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
When ironing, use a medium setting and always iron on the reverse. This protects the face of the micro-pique fabric and prevents any damage to your custom embroidery or print designs.
