Product Overview
The Uneek Active Poloshirt is a versatile staple for any professional uniform, engineered to provide a reliable balance between comfort and industrial durability. This medium-weight poloshirt is constructed from a robust blend of polyester and cotton, ensuring it maintains its shape and appearance even in demanding work environments. Whether you are outfitting a retail team or providing robust apparel for tradespeople, this garment offers a consistent, polished look that stands up to the rigours of daily wear.
Key Features
- Reactive Dyed Fabric: The reactive dyeing process ensures that the colour bonds deeply with the fibres, preventing the garment from fading prematurely after multiple washes.
- Enzyme Washed Finish: This specialist treatment results in an exceptionally soft hand-feel and significantly reduces the risk of shrinkage, ensuring the fit remains consistent over time.
- Knitted Collar and Taped Neck: The knitted collar provides a structured appearance, while the taped neck seam enhances comfort and prevents irritation during long shifts.
- Three Self-Coloured Button Placket: This detail ensures a clean, uniform aesthetic that complements your brand identity without clashing hardware.
- Hemmed Sleeves and Bottom: Reinforced stitching at the pressure points ensures the garment does not fray or lose its silhouette during active use.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a 50% polyester and 50% cotton composition, this poloshirt combines the breathable, soft qualities of natural cotton with the hard-wearing, moisture-wicking properties of polyester. This blend is particularly effective for those working in active roles, as it helps regulate temperature while providing a surface that is resistant to creases. The inclusion of an enzyme wash during the manufacturing process is a deliberate choice to ensure that the garment feels broken-in from the first wear, avoiding the stiff texture often associated with new workwear.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Uneek Active Poloshirt is an excellent canvas for customisation. Given its stable poly-cotton weave, it is perfectly suited for high-quality embroidery. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a professional finish, ideal for company logos and individual names on the chest. The fabric density supports complex stitch patterns without pulling or distorting.
For larger, high-impact branding, such as back prints for events or large-scale promotional work, this garment also takes print exceptionally well. Our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting their craft since 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the professional integrity of your business image.

This poloshirt is a reliable choice across a wide spectrum of industries. It is particularly well-suited for the hospitality sector, retail environments, and light engineering. Its smart-casual appearance also makes it a popular choice for site managers who need to move between the office and the field without appearing underdressed.

Practical Advice
As this is a unisex garment with a generous cut, we recommend reviewing the size guide to ensure the best fit for your team. The poly-cotton blend offers some natural stretch, making it comfortable for layering under sweatshirts or jackets during the colder months.
Caring for your product
To maintain the professional appearance and longevity of your poloshirt, it is essential to follow the recommended care guidelines. We recommend a domestic wash at 60°C. Washing at this temperature is effective for removing stubborn stains and bacteria, which is vital for maintaining hygiene in active work environments.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will break down the polyester fibres and cause the reactive dyes to fail, leading to significant discolouration. When drying, it is best to air dry where possible; if using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent the heat from damaging any applied print or embroidery work. Iron on a medium setting, ensuring you do not iron directly over any customised branding to prevent damage to the design.
