Product Overview
The Uneek UC117 Two Tone Polo Shirt represents a sophisticated departure from standard workwear. Designed for professionals who require a garment that is as functional as it is visually striking, this polo shirt features a contemporary fit and eye-catching contrast panels. Whether you are representing your business on-site or in a customer-facing role, the UC117 ensures you maintain a sharp, coordinated appearance that reflects the quality of your services.
Key Features
Polycotton Blend: The 50% polyester and 50% cotton composition offers the natural breathability of cotton combined with the hard-wearing resilience of polyester, ensuring the garment lasts through demanding shifts.
Reactive Dyed Fabric: This specialized dyeing process ensures the black and charcoal tones remain deep and vibrant, even after repeated laundering cycles, preventing the "washed-out" look common in inferior garments.
Twin Needle Stitching: Reinforced stitching on the seams provides enhanced structural integrity, preventing the garment from fraying or failing under the physical stresses of daily work.
Contrast Side Panels: These panels, located on the front and undersleeves, provide a modern aesthetic that helps your team stand out and facilitates easy colour-matching with your brand identity.
Knitted Collar and Cuffs: Featuring a contrast stripe, these elements provide a secure fit and maintain the shirt’s professional shape over time, resisting the curling often seen on cheaper alternatives.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a reliable medium-weight fabric, the UC117 strikes the ideal balance between protection and comfort. The contemporary fit is designed to follow the lines of the body more closely than traditional cuts, providing a modern silhouette that remains comfortable for all-day wear. The internal back neck tape, also in a contrast colour, serves a dual purpose: it prevents irritation against the skin and adds a further touch of quality to the garment's interior finish, ensuring it looks as good on the inside as it does on the outside.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The UC117 is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. Given its medium-weight construction and stable polycotton weave, it is particularly well-suited for high-quality embroidery. Placing a company logo on the chest provides a professional, high-end finish that lasts the lifetime of the garment. For those requiring larger, high-impact branding across the back, our printing techniques provide a bold, crisp finish that complements the two-tone design. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based production team has been perfecting these processes since 1976, ensuring your branding is applied with absolute precision.
Use Cases
This polo shirt is versatile enough for a variety of sectors. It is particularly effective for transport and logistics teams, facility management staff, and retail employees who need a distinctive, professional uniform. The two-tone design makes it an excellent choice for businesses looking to match their corporate identity colours without the need for a fully bespoke garment.

Practical Advice
Due to its contemporary fit, this polo shirt provides a more tailored appearance than a traditional "boxy" work shirt. If you prefer a looser fit or intend to wear a thermal base layer underneath during colder months, you may wish to consider sizing up. It pairs exceptionally well with charcoal or black work trousers to create a cohesive, professional uniform.
Caring for your product
To maintain the professional appearance and structural integrity of your polo shirt, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes everyday dirt and sweat while protecting the reactive dyes, ensuring the contrast panels do not bleed or fade prematurely.
Avoid the use of industrial bleaching agents, as these will break down the polyester fibres and cause the cotton to lose its natural softness. When drying, it is best to air dry the garment or use a low heat setting to prevent any shrinkage that could distort the twin needle stitching or the three-button placket.
