Product Overview
The Premier PR617 Long Sleeve Coolchecker Piqué Polo is a sophisticated alternative to the traditional collared shirt, designed for professionals who require a balance of formal appearance and technical performance. This garment moves away from the standard boxy polo silhouette, utilizing side panelled detailing to provide a more tailored, fitted shape. Constructed from a high-performance polyester piqué knit, it is engineered to keep the wearer fresh and dry throughout a demanding shift, making it an essential component of a modern professional wardrobe.
Key Features
- The three-button placket and stylish knitted collar provide a refined, shirt-like aesthetic that is suitable for both front-of-house and corporate environments.
- Advanced moisture-wicking fabric actively draws perspiration away from the skin, ensuring the wearer remains comfortable and dry during high-activity periods.
- The quick-drying nature of the fabric allows for efficient laundering and ensures the garment is ready for use shortly after washing.
- Side panelled detailing offers a contemporary, fitted look that enhances the professional silhouette without restricting movement.
- 5cm ribbed cuffs provide a secure fit at the wrist, ensuring the sleeves remain in place while adding a touch of classic sartorial detail.
Design & Performance
Crafted from a lightweight 100% polyester piqué knit, the PR617 is designed for longevity and resilience. The fabric is chosen specifically for its excellent colour retention properties, ensuring that the garment maintains its professional vibrancy even after frequent laundering. This is particularly beneficial for businesses maintaining a strict brand identity across a large team. The technical piqué weave allows for superior breathability, making it a reliable choice for indoor environments where temperature regulation is critical.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The stable piqué knit of the PR617 makes it an ideal candidate for professional branding. For a traditional and durable finish, embroidery is highly recommended; our Telford-based team can accurately reproduce corporate logos and staff names with high-density stitching that complements the fabric's texture. If your requirements involve larger, more complex graphics, our professional print services offer a vibrant and sharp alternative. Having managed customisation in-house since 1976, MyWorkwear ensures that every logo is applied with the technical precision your business deserves.
Use Cases
This long-sleeved polo is a versatile choice for the hospitality sector, retail management, and corporate events. It provides the professional coverage of a long-sleeved garment with the breathability of sportswear, making it perfect for staff who transition between client-facing roles and physical tasks. It is also an excellent option for year-round uniforms where a short-sleeved polo may not provide sufficient formality or warmth.

Practical Advice
The panelled construction provides a more fitted shape than standard polos. If you prefer a more relaxed fit for layering, we recommend reviewing our size guide or considering one size larger. This garment serves as an excellent base layer under a corporate jacket or can be worn alone as a smart-casual alternative to a formal shirt. The ribbed cuffs are designed to hold their shape, so they won't become loose if pushed up the forearm during the working day.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance and wicking capabilities of the Coolchecker fabric, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively cleans the fibres while preserving the integrity of the piqué knit and any custom branding.
We advise against the use of fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fibres and reduce the garment's ability to wick moisture away from the body. To ensure your embroidery or print remains in peak condition, wash the garment inside out and avoid high-heat drying, which can degrade the customisation over time. Always refer to the internal label for specific care instructions to ensure the longevity of the garment.
