Custom Polo Shirt Manufacturer

The polo is where a manufacturer’s range really shows. We run seven distinct builds: sublimation-ready interlock at 135 GSM, a stretch lycra body with panel-mesh collar, knitted-tricot-collar polos in cotton or lycra piqué, and a 210 GSM double-face piqué that is 65% cotton and still accepts full print — a combination most factories cannot offer at all.

Fabric selection

Fabrics we recommend for polo shirts

These are the constructions we run as standard for this discipline, with the factory tolerance of ±5 GSM. They are a starting point — name your own composition and weight and we knit it instead.

Construction

How we build it

These are the details that do not show in a product photo and decide whether your customer orders a second time.

  • Knitted tricot collars and cuffs are produced to your colour rather than bought in white and dyed
  • The double-face piqué is the hard one — a cotton-rich polo with a print face that holds detail
  • Placket, button and topstitch colour are all specified on the tech sheet, not left to the line
  • Cotton-rich builds carry a confirmed shrinkage tolerance before bulk
