Product Overview
The Stanley/Stella Coaster Vintage represents a sophisticated fusion of contemporary tailoring and classic aesthetic. This mid-lightweight polo shirt is crafted from 100% organic cotton piqué, offering a unique garment-dyed finish that ensures no two pieces are identical. Designed with a fitted silhouette, it provides a smart, modern look suitable for a variety of professional environments, particularly those requiring a balance between comfort and style.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This polo shirt serves as an exceptional canvas for brand customisation. Our Telford-based production team, with expertise dating back to 1976, can apply high-quality embroidery or precision printing to suit your specific requirements.
Embroidery is highly recommended for corporate logos or staff names, as the textured piqué fabric provides a stable foundation for a premium, tactile finish that projects professional authority. For larger, more vibrant promotional graphics, our printing processes ensure crisp detail that complements the vintage texture of the garment. All customisation is managed in-house to guarantee the highest standards of quality control and consistency for your brand.
Key Features
- The fitted unisex cut provides a modern, professional silhouette that flatters various body types while maintaining essential comfort throughout the working day.
- A flat knit rib on the collar and sleeve hems offers structural integrity, ensuring these high-wear areas retain their shape and don't fray or sag over time.
- The heavy single jersey back neck tape enhances wearer comfort by preventing irritation and reinforcing the garment's neck structure against stretching.
- Reinforced side seam slits with bartack finishes provide extra durability and allow for a greater range of movement during active shifts.
- A two-button placket with colour-matched buttons delivers a clean, cohesive appearance suitable for professional client-facing roles.
Design & Performance
The use of 100% organic cotton piqué is central to the Coaster Vintage's performance. The fabric has been panel-washed prior to construction, which significantly improves shrinkage control and provides a soft hand-feel from the first wear. Being garment-dyed, the polo possesses a distinctive character that matures over time, reflecting a pre-worn aesthetic without compromising on structural strength.
The construction includes single-needle topstitching at the shoulder seams and a narrow double-needle topstitch at the bottom hem. These technical details are not merely decorative; they provide essential reinforcement to the garment's stress points, ensuring it withstands the rigours of daily workwear use and frequent laundering.
Use Cases
This polo is ideally suited for teams working in warmer climates or indoor environments where a mid-lightweight fabric is preferred for breathability. It is an excellent choice for the travel and hospitality sectors, as well as creative agencies looking for a more relaxed, "vintage" corporate identity. Given its unisex sizing and contemporary fit, it is a versatile option for diverse workforces across various service industries.

Practical Advice
The Coaster Vintage is a fitted garment designed for a contemporary look. For a more relaxed feel or for staff who prefer extra room, we recommend considering one size up from their usual measurements. It layers effectively under lightweight jackets or knitwear, making it a viable year-round option for indoor staff or those transitioning between environments.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the unique appearance and performance of a garment-dyed polo requires specific care. To preserve the fabric's integrity and the vibrancy of your customisation, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures may cause the organic fibres to degrade or the vintage dye to fade prematurely, reducing the garment's lifespan.
Chlorine-based bleach should be avoided at all costs, as it will damage the organic cotton fibres and strip the garment of its characteristic colour. For best results, always wash the garment with similar colours to prevent any potential dye transfer, which is a natural characteristic of garment-dyed items.
To protect your custom branding, always wash and iron the garment inside out. Avoid ironing directly over any printed areas, as the heat can damage the print film and cause peeling. We advise against tumble drying; instead, allow the garment to air dry naturally to prevent shrinkage and maintain the fitted silhouette. Dry cleaning is not recommended as the chemicals used can be too harsh for the organic piqué fabric.
