A practical guide for teams who need uniforms that work as hard as they do
When you’re ordering uniforms for a team—whether that’s for a construction site, a warehouse, retail shop, or a corporate setting—getting the right polo shirt matters. It’s not just about how it looks. The right work polo should be comfortable, durable, suitable for branding, and easy to wash and wear day in, day out.
At Cill Dara Customised Clothing, we know that every role brings its own demands. That’s why we offer a full range of ProRTX polo shirts, designed with performance, comfort and quality in mind. Here's what to consider when choosing a polo shirt for your team:
1. Choose a Polo That Lasts
For everyday wear, you need a fabric that won’t fade or lose its shape after a few washes. Look out for polos made with a cotton-polyester blend—this gives you the breathability of cotton with the strength of polyester.
Also check for twin-needle stitching, which adds strength at the seams, and make sure the polo is suitable for industrial washing up to 60°C.
Why it matters:
A polo that holds up to daily use saves money in the long run and keeps your team looking professional shift after shift
2. Think About Branding
If you’re adding embroidery or print, the surface of the fabric needs to be smooth and stable. Good polos will keep their shape after washing and maintain consistent colour—so your logo stays sharp and clean across all sizes and batches.
Why it matters:
A smart, well-branded uniform reinforces your business image and makes your staff instantly recognisable
3. Make Sure the Fit Works for Everyone
Uniforms should be inclusive. That means offering a wide size range—from XS to 8XL—and having both unisex and gender-specific fits where needed. It’s also helpful to choose styles that give a cohesive look, even if different departments need different types of polos.
Why it matters:
A well-fitting uniform improves comfort and confidence, which helps with team morale and customer perception
4. Match the Polo to the Job
Different work environments call for different features. For example:
If your team is active and working in warmer conditions, the RX109 Pro Wicking Polo is lightweight and breathable, helping to keep staff cool and comfortable.
For tougher roles or outdoor work, the RX110 Premium Polo offers a more structured, heavyweight option that’s made to last.
Why it matters:
Comfort leads to productivity. Choosing the right fabric weight and features for each role ensures your staff can do their job without being distracted by what they’re wearing.
