Product Overview
The SOL'S Unisex Planet Long Sleeve Piqué Polo Shirt represents a sophisticated approach to sustainable workwear. This garment offers a refined long-sleeve alternative to the traditional polo, providing additional coverage and warmth without compromising on a professional appearance. Crafted from 100% organic cotton, it serves the growing demand for environmentally conscious uniform solutions while maintaining the high standards expected by modern businesses. The absence of a branded label at the neckline makes it an exemplary choice for companies looking to establish their own brand identity through customisation.
Key Features
- Ribbed collar and cuffs: These provide a structured fit that retains its shape throughout a busy shift, preventing the garment from looking tired or stretched.
- Taped neck: The internal taping adds a layer of comfort and reinforces the seam most prone to irritation and wear, ensuring longevity in high-use environments.
- Reinforced two-button placket: The self-colour button placket is reinforced to withstand the frequent tension of dressing, ensuring the garment remains functional and secure.
- Side seams: Side seams provide a more tailored, anatomical fit compared to tubular garments, ensuring the polo hangs correctly on a variety of body types.
- Twin needle hem: This double-stitched finish provides a clean, professional edge and prevents the hem from unravelling under stress.
- Unbranded size label: This allows for easy re-branding, making it a perfect canvas for businesses focused on a unified corporate identity.
Design & Performance
The use of a piqué weave gives this polo a classic, textured finish that is synonymous with professional attire. Being made from 100% organic cotton, the fabric offers a soft hand-feel that is gentle on the skin, a significant advantage for staff wearing the garment for extended periods. This is a standard-weight polo, providing a reliable balance between breathability and substance, making it suitable for year-round use in indoor or controlled environments.
Performance is backed by a suite of ethical and safety certifications. With REACH and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 compliance, you can be certain that no harmful substances were used during production. Furthermore, its PETA-Approved Vegan status and Organic Content Standard (OCS 100) certification confirm its credentials as a truly sustainable choice for the modern workplace.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This long-sleeve polo is a versatile foundation for your company branding. The piqué knit provides a stable surface for high-density embroidery, which is the preferred choice for a superior finish on corporate logos and staff names. The embroidery adds a three-dimensional, premium feel that withstands regular industrial laundering.
For larger, more graphic designs or promotional messaging, our high-quality print processes are equally effective. Since 1976, our in-house team in Telford has been refining these techniques, ensuring that whether you choose the traditional look of embroidery or the bold impact of print, your branding will be applied with technical precision.
Use Cases
This polo is ideally suited for client-facing roles where a t-shirt is too casual but a full dress shirt is impractical. It is an excellent choice for site managers, showroom staff, or delivery personnel who require a smart appearance with the added warmth of long sleeves. Its organic credentials also make it the logical choice for organisations with strong corporate social responsibility (CSR) commitments.

Practical Advice
The unisex classic fit makes this a versatile option for diverse teams. When ordering, consider that the long-sleeve design provides a slightly more formal silhouette than the short-sleeve version. It layers effectively under a gilet or softshell jacket during colder months without adding unnecessary bulk, thanks to its standard-weight construction.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional look of your organic cotton polo, adhering to proper garment care is essential. Consistent care ensures the fabric remains soft and the piqué weave retains its signature texture over time.
Proper laundering is particularly important for preserving the life of your custom branding. Neglecting care instructions can lead to premature fading of prints or tension issues with embroidery, which can detract from your professional image. We recommend following the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure the garment stays in service for as long as possible.
