Product Description
The Classic Polycotton Polo (J539M) is a tried-and-tested double yarn polo shirt that keeps its look and shape wash after wash — a genuine top all-round performer for everyday trade and team uniforms.
Made from 65% polyester and 35% ringspun cotton piqué (210gsm in white, 215gsm in colours), it has a fashion knit collar, two-button placket with self-coloured buttons, neck tape, and reinforced shoulder seams. Stocked in 13 colours from XS to 6XL.
What Sets the J539M Apart
Genuine Double Yarn Construction
The unique double yarn pique gives an exceptionally soft handfeel and increased shape retention compared to a standard single-yarn polo — a real reason it performs so well after repeated washing.
Built for Longevity
Reinforced shoulder seams, a spare button in the side seam, and a twin-needle hem all add genuine durability for daily workwear use.
An Exceptionally Broad Size Range
Sizing runs all the way from XS to 6XL, making it a practical choice for outfitting a genuinely diverse team.
Ideal For
- Trade and site teams
- Warehousing and facilities staff
