Product overview
Designed for active environments and high-intensity shifts, the Uneek UC126 Ladies Ultra Cool Poloshirt is a technical garment engineered for superior thermal regulation. This 140 GSM poloshirt utilises a 100% polyester textured knit to facilitate rapid moisture evaporation, making it an essential layer for staff who require both a professional appearance and performance-grade comfort in demanding roles.
Customisation: Performance Branding
At MyWorkwear, we understand the technical requirements of branding 100% polyester performance fabrics. For the UC126, we offer both high-precision embroidery and advanced print solutions. Embroidery provides a premium, durable finish that elevates your corporate identity; however, due to the lightweight 140 GSM nature of this fabric, our production team recommends medium-density designs to ensure the garment maintains its structural integrity without puckering. Alternatively, our heat-applied print methods are ideal for larger, vibrant graphics or multi-colour logos. Printing on textured polyester requires specific adhesive properties to ensure long-term durability and flexibility, and our in-house experts ensure that every application maintains the garment's breathable characteristics while providing sharp, professional results.

Design, performance and durability
This garment is built to perform where traditional cotton polos fail. The 100% polyester construction is inherently moisture-wicking, drawing perspiration to the surface where it can evaporate quickly. This is particularly effective during long shifts in the warehouse or active outdoor work. The taped neck prevents the collar from losing its shape after repeated wear, while the hemmed sleeves ensure the garment can withstand the friction of daily movement without fraying.
Measured performance
At 140 GSM, the UC126 is a lightweight garment, focusing on breathability over thermal insulation. The fit is tailored for a professional appearance without being restrictive, and the textured knit provides a high degree of snag resistance compared to standard flat-knit synthetics. The inclusion of a 3-button placket allows for manual ventilation adjustment in changing environments.
Pros and cons
Pros: Excellent moisture management; fast-drying after washing; the lightweight fabric is ideal for summer or high-activity roles; supports both high-impact printing and tactile embroidery.
Cons: At 140 GSM, it may require layering in colder conditions; highly detailed or heavy embroidery designs may feel substantial on this lighter-weight fabric.
Use cases and industry recommendations
This poloshirt is highly recommended for the fitness and leisure industry, events staff, and logistics workers operating in climate-controlled or warm environments. Its quick-dry nature also makes it a favourite for teams where daily garment turnover is high, such as delivery services or hospitality crews.

Practical advice
For the best results on lightweight performance gear, consider placing logos on the left chest to keep the garment's centre-front light and breathable. If your team works in high-visibility or high-heat areas, ensure your chosen print method is compatible with frequent industrial laundering.
