Product Overview
The Regatta Professional Pro 65/35 long sleeve polo is a technical staple for any professional uniform, bridging the gap between a standard t-shirt and a formal shirt. Developed by Regatta Professional, this garment is designed to provide a consistent, authoritative appearance for your workforce while ensuring the wearer remains comfortable throughout a full shift. The long-sleeved design makes it a versatile choice for those requiring additional arm protection or a reliable layer during the cooler months.
Key Features
- The 65% polyester and 35% sustainable cotton pique fabric provides an optimal balance of comfort and structural integrity, ensuring the polo keeps its shape after repeated wear.
- The long-sleeved construction offers extended coverage, which is particularly useful for staff working in fluctuating temperatures or outdoor environments.
- A classic polo collar offers a smart, professional silhouette that is suitable for client-facing roles and site work alike.
- The inclusion of sustainable cotton reflects a commitment to more responsible fabric sourcing without compromising on the garment's performance.
Design & Performance
Engineered for the demands of the modern workplace, the Pro 65/35 long sleeve polo utilises a pique knit which enhances the fabric's breathability and durability. This lightweight material is chosen for its resilience; the polyester content ensures the garment is hard-wearing and resistant to the usual mechanical stresses of a manual workday, while the cotton provides a soft, natural feel against the skin.
The garment is designed with rebranding in mind, featuring a tear-out tag which is particularly beneficial for businesses looking to fully integrate their own internal branding. The fit is generous yet professional, ensuring ease of movement for the wearer without the fabric appearing loose or untidy.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The stable pique weave of this polo makes it an excellent candidate for customisation. We highly recommend embroidery for your company logos or staff names; the fabric density supports complex stitching, resulting in a premium, long-lasting finish that reflects the quality of your brand.
For larger-scale branding or high-visibility graphics on the back or sleeves, our professional printing services provide a crisp and vibrant result. Our in-house team in Telford has been perfecting these processes since 1976, ensuring that your customised workwear meets the highest technical standards.
Use Cases
This polo is ideally suited for various sectors including logistics, facilities management, and retail. It is an excellent choice for tradespeople who prefer the coverage of long sleeves while maintaining a smarter appearance than a standard sweatshirt. It also serves as a high-quality base layer for outdoor workers who require a breathable garment under a high-visibility jacket.

Practical Advice
This polo is available in a broad size range from XS to 4XL, catering to a diverse workforce. When selecting sizes, consider that the long-sleeved design offers a standard fit; if your team will be wearing bulky thermal layers underneath, you may wish to account for this in your sizing choices. The sustainable cotton blend is designed for minimal shrinkage if cared for correctly.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of your garment and the vibrancy of your branding, we recommend a cool machine wash using pure soap flakes. Standard detergents can often be too aggressive for the natural cotton fibres, whereas soap flakes provide a thorough clean while maintaining the fabric's integrity.
Do not use bleach on this garment. Bleaching agents will compromise the polyester-cotton bond and cause premature fading, which will detract from your professional image. We also advise against dry cleaning, as the chemical processes involved are unnecessary for this fabric type and can damage custom prints.
This item should not be tumble dried. To maintain the shape of the collar and the length of the sleeves, allow the polo to air dry naturally. If ironing is required, use a cool setting and avoid direct contact with any printed areas to prevent heat damage to the customisation.
