Product Overview
The Uneek Clothing UC112 Classic Cotton Poloshirt represents a standard of excellence for professional attire. Crafted from 100% ring spun combed cotton, this garment provides a superior level of softness against the skin while maintaining the structural integrity required for a busy working day. The use of combed cotton ensures that shorter, coarser fibres are removed during the spinning process, resulting in a finer, stronger yarn that resists pilling and provides an exceptionally smooth surface for customisation.
Designed with a unisex fit, this medium-weight poloshirt balances breathability with a substantial feel, making it an ideal choice for year-round wear in various professional environments. Whether used as a standalone piece during the summer months or as a reliable base layer when the temperature drops, its classic design ensures your team remains smart and uniform.
Key Features
- 100% Ring Spun Combed Cotton: This premium fabric choice offers a softer hand-feel and greater durability than standard cotton, ensuring the garment remains comfortable throughout long shifts.
- Reactive Dyed: The fabric has been reactive dyed to ensure deep, lasting colour saturation that remains vibrant even after repeated laundering.
- Enzyme Washed: This process further softens the fabric and reduces the likelihood of shrinkage or pilling, giving the shirt a well-engineered finish from the first wear.
- Knitted Collar and Cuffs: These features provide a structured appearance and prevent the edges from curling, maintaining a professional silhouette over time.
- Taped Neck: Reinforced stitching along the neck seam enhances comfort and prevents irritation while providing extra strength to a high-stress area of the garment.
- Three Self-Coloured Button Placket: A traditional finish that allows for adjustable ventilation while keeping the aesthetic clean and consistent.
Design & Performance
The UC112 is engineered for performance in the workplace. The inclusion of a taped neck and knitted cuffs is not merely for aesthetics; these elements ensure the poloshirt retains its shape despite the rigours of daily movement and frequent washing. The medium-weight fabric offers a professional drape that looks far more substantial than lightweight alternatives, reflecting the quality of your brand.
By utilising ring spun combed cotton, Uneek has created a garment that feels luxurious but performs like a workhorse. The enzyme wash treatment is a critical technical step that ensures the fabric surface is smooth, which is particularly beneficial when applying precision branding.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The 100% combed cotton surface of the UC112 makes it a versatile canvas for our Telford-based customisation team. For those seeking a traditional, high-end professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. Our state-of-the-art machinery can handle intricate logos and text with precision, creating a durable finish that withstands industrial use.
Alternatively, if your branding requires large, vibrant graphics or bold messaging, print is an excellent choice. The smooth, flat weave of the combed cotton allows for sharp detail and excellent ink adhesion. Having been established in 1976, MyWorkwear possesses the technical expertise to ensure your chosen method results in a garment that your staff will be proud to wear.

Its breathable cotton construction also makes it a favourite for warehouse supervisors and transport personnel who need to remain comfortable while staying active.

Practical Advice
The UC112 features a unisex fit that is generally true to size. If you are intending to layer this poloshirt over a thermal base layer, you may wish to consider the next size up for a more relaxed fit. For those in more physical roles, the knitted cuffs provide a secure fit that keeps sleeves out of the way of machinery or equipment.
Caring for your product
To ensure your poloshirt maintains its shape and colour, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at higher temperatures may eventually degrade the cotton fibres and cause premature fading of the reactive dyes.
When laundering, avoid the use of bleach, as this will compromise the integrity of the fabric and potentially damage any custom embroidery or print. Always wash similar colours together to prevent any potential colour transfer, and ensure the garment is reshaped while damp to maintain its professional appearance.
