Polo Shirts with Logo for Company Uniforms: Piqué, Colours, Sizes

Polo shirts with a logo for company uniforms are most often ordered in piqué fabric with a density of 180–220 g/m²: it holds its shape after 30–50 washes and takes embroidery on the chest well. Our catalogue offers models ranging from 150 g/m² (sports polyester) to 220 g/m² (premium cotton), with colour choices reaching up to 238 shades for some models, sizes typically from XS to 3XL, and up to 5XL for certain models. The standard turnaround is 5–10 business days after artwork approval, depending on quantity and printing technique.

What is piqué and why it's used for uniform shirts

Piqué is a knit fabric with a visible honeycomb-like texture. Unlike plain jersey (used in T-shirts), piqué is sturdier, wrinkles less, and the collar keeps its shape for longer — which is why it's the standard choice for company uniforms worn daily.

Practical guidelines by density:

• 150 g/m² polyester — for sports and outdoor work, dries quickly, suitable for sports clubs and event teams.
• 180 g/m² cotton — lightweight, breathable, good for the summer season and large print runs.
• 200 g/m² cotton — the most popular choice for everyday uniforms, a solid base for embroidery.
• 220 g/m² cotton — denser, with a more pronounced collar, looks more representative in an office or hospitality setting.

Models from our catalogue

If you need a warmer option for the autumn season or an event team, the catalogue also offers the Clyde unisex rugby-style polo sweatshirt made from organic cotton — available in 56 colours, with a polo collar but in sweatshirt thickness.

Men's, women's, or unisex cut

Star, Calgary, Monzha, and Estrella are available in both men's and women's cuts — the women's models have narrower shoulders and a tailored waist. If your team has a wide range of sizes and you'd rather not stock two separate lines, the practical option is the unisex Austral 180 g/m². Our experience: in mixed teams, the women's cut is generally worn with more enthusiasm, so the price difference usually pays off.

Colours and logo legibility

The colour range is very wide for some models (Star — 238 shades), but not all colours are in stock simultaneously in every size. For an order, we recommend choosing one main colour and one backup shade.

On logo contrast:

• Dark shirt (navy, black, dark green) + light or white logo — the most universal solution.
• White or light grey shirt — works well for multi-colour logos with fine details.
• Bright colours (red, orange) — good for events and sports clubs, but the logo needs adapting, as a corporate colour can "disappear" against a bright background.

Please send files as vector graphics (.ai, .eps, .pdf) in CMYK colours — this matters both for embroidery digitising and DTF printing. For more on techniques, see our garment printing page.

Sizes from XS to 5XL

Most polo models are available in sizes S–3XL, with some models ranging from XS up to 5XL. Women's cuts more often top out at 2XL or 3XL. Practical tips:

• Before a large print run, order 1–2 samples for fitting — we also work with orders of just 1 piece.
• Collect a size chart from your team based on actual chest measurements, not "I usually wear M".
• Allow for a 5–10% reserve for new employees — reordering a small quantity later works out more expensive.

Printing technique: embroidery or DTF

The base cost of a polo shirt from the catalogue starts at roughly EUR 8 per piece for the lightest models and EUR 12–18 for the 220 g/m² premium models. All prices are indicative and excl. VAT; the exact price depends on quantity, model, colour, and number of print locations. From 25 pieces, the price typically drops by 10–20%, and even more from 100 pieces.

How ordering and timelines work

1. Send us your logo and approximate quantity with sizes — we prepare a quote within one business day.
2. We confirm the model, colour, and print size; if needed, we produce an embroidery sample.
3. Production: 5–10 business days after artwork approval, depending on quantity. Rush jobs — by arrangement.
4. Pickup at Kandavas iela 29A, Riga, or courier delivery.

If polo shirts are part of a wider package, we can also prepare promotional products with your logo or T-shirts within the same order, so the printing and colour tone stay consistent.

Frequently asked questions

What's the minimum order quantity?

We also work with orders of just 1 piece — convenient for samples or a new employee. For larger quantities, the price per unit drops significantly, especially from 25 and 100 pieces.

Which density is better for everyday uniforms?

200 g/m² cotton piqué (Star, Calgary) is the safest choice for office and service work. If the shirt is worn for physical or outdoor work, the 150 g/m² polyester Monzha is more practical, as it dries quickly and shows less sweat.

Are all models available up to 5XL?

No. Most models cover S–3XL, and only select men's and unisex models are available up to 4XL or 5XL. We check size availability for the specific model and colour before ordering.

Does embroidery withstand washing?

Yes, embroidery on piqué withstands washing at 40°C for the entire lifespan of the shirt. DTF printing is also durable, but we don't recommend washing it at 60°C or ironing directly over the print.

In what format should I send the logo?

As vector graphics — .ai, .eps, or .pdf, in CMYK colours. If you only have a raster file, let us know, and we'll assess whether it can be redrawn in vector format.

How long does it take to get a quote?

We prepare a quote with the model offer, colour, and printing price within one business day of receiving your logo and quantity.
