Product Overview
The WX2 Polo Shirt is a masterclass in balancing functional utility with a professional corporate aesthetic. Engineered as part of the core WX2 range, this short-sleeved garment is specifically designed to facilitate consistent branding across your entire workforce. It provides a cohesive, uniform appearance while ensuring that the wearer remains comfortable throughout the working day, regardless of the task at hand.
Key Features
- High-Performance Pique Knit: The 50% cotton and 50% polyester blend offers the breathability of natural fibres alongside the hard-wearing resilience of synthetic materials, ensuring the shirt maintains its shape over time.
- Core WX2 Colour Palette: This range is designed to integrate seamlessly with other WX2 garments, allowing you to build a bespoke uniform look that highlights your corporate identity without the lead times of custom manufacturing.
- Lightweight Construction: The fabric choice provides a comfortable, unrestrictive feel that is ideal for active roles or for use as a primary layer in warmer environments.
- Optimised for Branding: The smooth surface of the pique knit is specifically chosen to provide a stable foundation for high-quality logo application.
Design & Performance
Performance in the workplace is largely dictated by the materials we wear. This polo shirt utilises a medium-weight pique knit that strikes a sophisticated balance between durability and comfort. The 50/50 blend is particularly effective; the cotton content ensures soft contact against the skin and natural moisture management, while the polyester provides essential colour fastness and structural integrity. This means the garment won't shrink or fade as quickly as 100% cotton alternatives, even when subjected to the rigours of daily wear and frequent industrial laundering.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
At MyWorkwear, we understand that a polo shirt is more than just clothing; it is a mobile billboard for your business. This garment is perfectly suited for both print and embroidery. Embroidery is the superior choice for small, intricate details such as company logos or staff names, providing a textured, professional finish that stands the test of time. Conversely, printing is highly effective for larger, more vibrant designs where a bold visual impact is required.
All customisation is handled in-house at our Telford facility by our expert team. Having been established in 1976, we have decades of experience in ensuring your branding is applied with precision and care, maintaining the professional appearance of your team.
Use Cases
The WX2 Polo Shirt is a versatile staple suitable for a wide variety of sectors. It is an excellent choice for warehouse staff, delivery drivers, and site managers who require a professional appearance that doesn't compromise on movement. Additionally, its clean lines and core colour options make it a favourite for customer-facing retail staff and trade professionals who want to project a reliable image.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the nature of your work. This polo shirt is designed with a regular fit; however, if you frequently layer this garment over thermal base layers in winter, you may wish to consider the dimensions of those under-layers to ensure total freedom of movement. For teams working in mixed conditions, this shirt pairs excellently with a WX2 softshell jacket for a layered, professional system.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of your garment and the branding applied to it, maintaining a strict care routine is essential. We recommend a maximum wash temperature of 60°C. This temperature is high enough to remove persistent workplace grime and oils but controlled enough to protect the polyester fibres and the integrity of your embroidered or printed logo.
It is vital that you do not bleach this garment. Chemical bleaching agents will strip the colour from the fabric and degrade the thread used in embroidery, leading to a prematurely aged appearance. Similarly, we advise against dry cleaning, as the harsh chemicals can interfere with the bond of printed designs.
For the best results, this polo shirt should be line dried rather than tumble dried. High heat from a tumble dryer can cause the pique knit to tighten or warp. If ironing is necessary, do not exceed 150°C and ensure you iron on the reverse of any printed areas to avoid damaging the custom finish.
