ProRTX Pro wicking polo

Product Overview

The ProRTX Pro wicking polo is a technically proficient garment designed for those whose working day involves more than just sitting behind a desk. Crafted from 100% recycled polyester, this shirt combines environmental responsibility with high-performance technical features. The permanent wicking finish ensures that moisture is efficiently moved away from the skin, allowing you to remain comfortable even during physically demanding tasks. It is a reliable choice for any workforce requiring a refined, professional appearance without sacrificing the utility of modern performance fabrics.

Key Features

• Permanent Wicking Finish: Unlike temporary treatments, this feature ensures that the moisture-management properties remain effective wash after wash, keeping you dry throughout the longest shifts.
• Antibacterial Finish: This helps to manage odours and maintain freshness, which is particularly beneficial in fast-paced environments such as hospitality or trade work.
• Recycled Polyester: By utilising recycled materials, this polo supports your company’s sustainability goals while maintaining a high level of garment performance.
• Twin-needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching at the seams provides the necessary durability to withstand the daily rigours of active work, ensuring the garment does not fail under tension.
• Ribbed Collar and Cuffs: These elements are designed to ensure the shirt maintains its structured shape over time, preventing the sagging often seen in lesser-quality alternatives.

Design & Performance

Constructed from a lightweight yet resilient 100% recycled polyester fabric, this polo is engineered for breathability and freedom of movement. The standard fit is designed to accommodate a wide range of body types comfortably, providing enough room for physical activity without appearing overly loose. The three-button placket adds a classic touch, while the inclusion of a spare button is a sensible practical detail for the inevitable wear and tear of a busy work life. The fabric feels smooth against the skin, making it suitable for all-day wear in demanding conditions.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The ProRTX Pro wicking polo serves as an excellent canvas for your company branding. For a refined, professional appearance, we recommend embroidery for your company logo or staff names. The fabric's stable knit is perfectly suited to hold detailed stitching securely. Alternatively, if your branding requires a larger or more vibrant display, our high-quality printing techniques are ideally suited to this polyester surface. All customisation is carried out in-house by our expert team in Telford, who have been perfecting these techniques since 1976.

Use Cases

Given its technical wicking and antibacterial properties, this polo is ideal for hospitality staff, maintenance crews, and trade professionals who require breathable attire. It is equally appropriate for wellness environments or as part of a modern corporate uniform for teams on the move. Its ability to be washed at higher temperatures also makes it suitable for sectors where maintaining high standards of hygiene is paramount.

Practical Advice

This polo serves as a versatile base layer. In colder conditions, it layers neatly under a sweatshirt or softshell jacket without adding unnecessary bulk or restricting movement. We advise checking the sizing guide carefully, as the range spans from XS up to 3XL, ensuring a consistent and professional look across your entire team.

Caring for your product

To maintain the performance and professional finish of your garment, it is important to follow these guidelines carefully. Washing at 60°C or below is recommended to ensure thorough cleanliness, which is especially important for active workwear. These higher temperatures help remove stubborn stains and bacteria without damaging the wicking finish of the polyester.

Avoid using bleach, as this will degrade the synthetic fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely. When drying, use a low temperature setting on your tumble dryer; excessive heat can cause potential shrinkage or damage the technical integrity of the fabric.

If ironing is required, use a medium temperature. This helps to remove creases and restore the shirt's crisp appearance without melting the polyester fibres. Finally, do not dry clean this garment, and always wash dark colours separately to prevent any dye transfer between items during the wash cycle.
