Design & Performance
The poplin weave of the UC709 produces a smooth, lightweight fabric that is exceptionally comfortable against the skin. By blending 65% polyester with 35% cotton, Uneek has created a garment that leverages the strength and colour retention of synthetic fibres alongside the natural softness of cotton. This specific composition ensures the shirt is resilient enough for daily wear and frequent laundering while remaining comfortable in temperature-controlled environments. The inclusion of self-coloured buttons and a back yoke demonstrates a commitment to understated, functional design that does not distract from your professional presentation.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The UC709 is an excellent canvas for corporate branding. We recommend embroidery for the left breast pocket or collar to achieve a sophisticated, permanent professional appearance. The dense poplin weave supports intricate stitching, allowing company logos to stand out with clarity. For larger promotional requirements, digital printing provides a bold finish. Our in-house team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience since our founding in 1976, ensures that every logo is applied with precision, maintaining the garment's professional aesthetic.
Use Cases
This shirt is primarily designed for individuals in front-of-house, hospitality, and corporate office roles. It is equally suited for security personnel requiring a formal uniform or sales teams needing a cohesive, branded look. The lightweight nature of the fabric makes it ideal for indoor settings where a consistent professional image is paramount.

Practical Advice
Given the lightweight nature of this poplin shirt, it layers exceptionally well under knitwear or uniform jackets without adding unnecessary bulk. When selecting your size, consider that the stiffened collar is designed for a precise fit; ensuring an accurate neck measurement will provide the most comfortable and professional result.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and professional finish of your shirt, it is vital to follow the care instructions provided. A domestic wash at 60°C is recommended to effectively remove oils and stains common in hospitality and office environments. Neglecting the recommended temperature may result in inadequate cleaning, which can lead to permanent fabric discolouration over time.
Avoid using bleach, as this will degrade the polyester-cotton fibres and cause the self-coloured buttons to lose their finish. We recommend ironing while the fabric is slightly damp to take full advantage of the easy-care properties and achieve the sharpest possible appearance.
