Engineered for Performance

The Russell Ladies Stretch Pique Polo Shirt redefines the standard for operational workwear by integrating performance fabric technology into a classic silhouette. The fabric composition is a robust blend of 95% cotton and 5% Lycra®, creating a material that offers the breathability and natural feel of cotton with the vital elasticity of elastane. This addition of Lycra® is critical for business durability; it ensures the garment retains its shape wash after wash, resisting the sagging and bagging often seen in 100% cotton alternatives. With a substantial weight of 210gsm for colours, this polo provides excellent opacity and structure, making it suitable for year-round wear. The taped neck and reinforced shoulder seams add structural integrity, preventing distortion during high-temperature industrial laundering. For uniform buyers, this translates to a lower replacement rate and a consistently sharp appearance for the team. It perfectly complements our wider range of Polo Shirts for a unified workforce aesthetic.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Comfort is paramount for staff engaged in long shifts, and the 566F delivers with a soft-touch finish that feels gentle against the skin. The slim fit is designed to present a modern, professional image without restricting movement, thanks to the inherent stretch of the fabric. A longer length cut ensures the polo stays tucked in during bending or reaching, maintaining a tidy look in retail or hospitality settings. The shorter side vents featuring herringbone tape add a touch of durability and allow for ease of movement at the hips. The four pearlised button placket allows for adjustable ventilation and adds a premium aesthetic touch compared to standard workwear buttons. Whether worn in a climate-controlled office or a busy cafe environment, this polo regulates temperature effectively while ensuring the wearer looks polished from the start of the shift to the end.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Hospitality and Front-of-House Service.
• Retail and Customer Service Roles.
• Corporate Event Staffing.

Corporate Branding & Compatibility

The micro-pique texture provides a stable base for intricate embroidery, ensuring your logo stands out clearly. The fabric's recovery properties mean branding won't distort the garment. We recommend you complete the uniform with Hoodies for a layered, casual-corporate look.
