Design & Performance
This shirt is manufactured from a balanced blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton in a plain weave. The result is a lightweight fabric that is exceptionally breathable, which is essential for indoor environments or active roles. The polyester content ensures the garment is hard-wearing and retains its colour through repeated laundering, while the cotton provides the soft, natural feel required for all-day comfort. The plain weave offers a smooth, professional finish that resists the pilling often found in lower-quality alternatives.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The tight, smooth weave of this poplin fabric makes it an ideal surface for customisation. For those seeking a high-end, durable finish, embroidery is the preferred choice for company logos on the chest or collar, providing a three-dimensional, professional look. If your branding requires larger or more intricate graphics, our printing techniques produce sharp, vibrant results on this polyester-cotton base. Our expert team in Telford has been handling these technical processes since 1976, ensuring your branding is applied with the precision your business deserves.
Use Cases
The versatility of the PR200 makes it a staple for front-of-house staff, corporate office teams, and hospitality professionals. Its vast colour range is particularly useful for events and exhibitions where standing out is a requirement. Given the wide size range, from 14.5" up to 23", it is the go-to solution for outfitting large and diverse workforces with a uniform look.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, we recommend measuring your neck carefully to ensure the stiffened collar is comfortable when fully buttoned. Due to the lightweight nature of the poplin fabric, this shirt is an excellent layering piece; it sits comfortably under a blazer or waistcoat without creating bulk or restricting movement.
Caring for your product
To ensure your shirt remains in peak condition, it is vital to follow the care guidelines. Consistent care will not only extend the life of the garment but also protect the integrity of your custom branding.
We recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is effective for removing daily grime without stressing the fabric fibres or causing the collar to lose its stiffness. Higher temperatures should be avoided to prevent potential shrinkage or damage to the polyester-cotton blend.
It is important to wash dark colours separately to avoid dye migration, which can ruin the crisp appearance of your shirts. Furthermore, washing the garment inside out is a simple but effective way to protect the surface of the fabric and any embroidery from the mechanical action of the washing machine, ensuring your logo stays looking sharp for longer.
