Product Overview
The SOL'S Ladies Phoenix Piqué Polo Shirt is a high-specification garment designed for those who require a professional appearance without sacrificing the durability needed for active work. This heavy-weight polo is engineered with a feminine, fitted silhouette that provides a contemporary look compared to traditional unisex alternatives. The use of a premium cotton-elastane blend ensures the garment offers both the breathable comfort of natural fibres and the flexible recovery required for a busy working day.
As part of our re-brand collection, this shirt is label-free, removing the irritation of neck tags and providing a clean finish that is ideal for businesses looking to implement a consistent internal brand identity.
Key Features
- Combed Cotton and Elastane Blend: The fabric consists of 95% ringspun combed cotton and 5% elastane. Combing the cotton removes shorter fibres, resulting in a smoother, stronger yarn that provides a superior surface for customisation and a softer feel against the skin.
- Five-Button Placket: A sophisticated five-button design with self-coloured buttons allows for a tailored look and adjustable ventilation.
- Ribbed Collar and Cuffs: These features are designed to retain their shape and elasticity, ensuring the garment remains smart even after multiple laundry cycles.
- Taped Neck: Internal reinforcement along the neck seam provides additional comfort and prevents the garment from stretching out of shape during wear.
- Side Vents: Strategically placed vents at the hem allow the shirt to sit comfortably over the hips, facilitating a better fit and greater ease of movement.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Phoenix polo lies in its construction. The piqué weave creates a subtle texture that promotes airflow, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor environments. Because it is a heavy-weight fabric, it offers excellent opacity and a substantial feel that signifies quality. The inclusion of 5% elastane is a critical technical detail; it allows the fitted style to move with the wearer's body, reducing the strain on seams and helping the garment return to its original shape after stretching.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The dense piqué weave and heavy-weight nature of this polo make it an exceptional candidate for customisation. For a truly professional finish, we recommend embroidery. The fabric's thickness provides a stable foundation for high-stitch-count logos, ensuring they remain flat and prominent without the fabric puckering.
Alternatively, the smooth ringspun cotton surface is well-suited for printing, allowing for bold, high-contrast designs that are perfect for larger branding requirements. All customisation is performed in-house at our Telford facility, where our team has been perfecting the craft since 1976.
Use Cases
The Phoenix is highly versatile, making it an excellent choice for front-of-house staff, retail professionals, and hospitality teams. Its fitted design and sophisticated placket also make it suitable for corporate events and office-based roles where a smart-casual uniform is required.

Practical Advice
It is important to note that this specific style is designed with a slim, fitted profile and tends to run small compared to other manufacturers. We strongly recommend reviewing sizing carefully before proceeding with any customisation. Due to its streamlined fit, it layers exceptionally well under corporate knitwear or work jackets without adding unnecessary bulk.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance and appearance of the cotton-elastane blend requires sensible laundering. Consistent care ensures the elastane fibres remain resilient and the cotton stays soft. We suggest washing the garment at a moderate temperature to preserve the fabric's integrity and to prevent the fitted silhouette from being compromised.
To protect your custom embroidery or print, always wash the garment inside out. This reduces the friction between the branding and the washing machine drum, ensuring your company logo remains vibrant and intact for the life of the shirt.
