Product Overview
The Uneek Clothing UC117 Two Tone Polo Shirt offers a sophisticated departure from standard monochromatic workwear. Designed with a contemporary fit, this medium-weight garment combines a professional silhouette with striking contrast side panels and undersleeves. It is engineered for businesses that want their teams to stand out while maintaining a unified, professional appearance. The use of a balanced poly-cotton blend ensures that the shirt remains breathable throughout the working day while offering the resilience required for active environments.
Key Features
- Contemporary Fit: Provides a modern, tailored silhouette that looks professional without restricting movement.
- Contrast Side Panels and Undersleeves: Adds a distinct visual element to your uniform, helping your brand stand out.
- Knitted Collar and Cuffs: Features a contrast stripe for added detail and a structured look that holds its shape.
- Reactive Dyed Fabric: Ensures that the colours remain vibrant and deep, even after repeated laundering.
- Twin Needle Stitching: Reinforced seams provide extra durability at high-stress points, preventing the garment from fraying or tearing.
- Internal Back Neck Tape: Finished in a contrast colour for added comfort and to prevent the neckline from stretching over time.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a 50% polyester and 50% cotton blend, the UC117 strikes an ideal balance between natural comfort and synthetic durability. The medium-weight fabric is substantial enough to feel high-quality and survive the rigours of a manual or service-based role, yet breathable enough for indoor or summer use. The reactive dye process used in production means the pigments are chemically bonded to the fibres, which is why the black and charcoal tones will stay sharp rather than fading to an uninspiring grey.
The three-button placket features self-coloured buttons for a clean finish, while the twin-needle stitching on the hem and sleeves ensures that the garment can withstand the daily pull and stretch of a busy workplace without losing its structural integrity.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The UC117 is an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery. Given its medium-weight weave and flat surface, embroidery is particularly effective for adding company logos or staff names to the chest or nape of the neck, providing a high-end, tactile finish that lasts as long as the shirt itself.
For larger branding on the back, our printing techniques offer a bold and clear finish. Whether you choose a subtle embroidered logo or a high-impact print, our in-house team in Telford—who have been perfecting this craft since 1976—ensures every garment meets our exacting standards before it leaves the workshop.
Use Cases
This polo shirt is particularly well-suited for service industries, delivery teams, and trade professionals who want a uniform that looks more styled than a basic polo. Its contemporary fit and contrast detailing make it a popular choice for retail staff and event crews where brand identification is vital. Because it is unisex, it allows for a cohesive look across the entire workforce.

Practical Advice
The contemporary fit is designed to be slightly more fitted than a traditional 'baggy' polo. If your team prefers a looser, more traditional feel, you may wish to consider sizing up. This shirt layers perfectly under a softshell jacket or sweatshirt, making it a versatile core piece for a year-round uniform.
Caring for your product
To maintain the professional finish and longevity of your two-tone polo, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. Washing at this temperature effectively removes dirt and oils while protecting the reactive dyes from premature fading. Avoid using bleach, as this will destroy the contrast detailing and weaken the fabric fibres.
When drying, it is best to air dry the garment. Excessive heat from a tumble dryer can cause the polyester fibres to shrink or become brittle over time, which may distort the shape of your embroidery or print. If ironing is required, use a cool setting and ensure you do not iron directly over any printed logos to avoid damaging the customisation.
