FAQs: Printed Polo Shirts
What’s the difference between printed polo shirts and embroidered?
Printed business polo shirts have their designs applied using DTF printing. Images, graphics, text or logos are printed onto the fabric like ink on paper, producing detailed, colourful results. With embroidered workwear branding, designs are stitched on with thread using a machine. This process cannot produce the same image quality or detail, but gives more durable results with a higher quality feel.
How long does it take to get personalised polo shirts delivered?
You can expect your custom printed polo shirts in as little as seven working days when you choose our express production option. Standard production takes up to ten working days, with an additional day for dispatch and delivery.
What other custom workwear can I order with polo shirts?
Choose from a wide range of bespoke workwear including jackets, headwear, hi-vis workwear, t-shirts, hoods and gilets and bodywarmers. Every item is sourced from leading manufacturers and available with a selection of customisation options.
Can I order printed polo shirts in bulk?
Absolutely. We’re always happy to accept bulk orders and offer competitive rates for larger order quantities. You can also bundle your polo shirts with different products for a complete working wardrobe.
Is there a minimum order limit for polo shirts?
Yes, one. Whether you need a single polo shirt or hundreds, we can cater to any order size.

Which print method is best for polo shirts?
The best print method for your polo shirts will depend on your industry and usage:
- Choose embroidery for professional-looking workwear polos, especially if you have a simple logo or design
- Opt for heat transfer for adding individual names, job titles and numbers alongside branding
- Choose DTG printing if your logo includes fine details or multiple colours as these can be difficult to reproduce with embroidery
- Choose DTF printing for larger polo shirt orders or those featuring bold artwork, as it tends to be more economical for larger order sizes
Which industries use custom printed polo shirts?
A huge range of industries use custom printed polo shirts, including construction, hospitality, trades, sports and leisure, events and healthcare. Polo shirts are easily customised, comfortable and smart-looking, making them an ideal work garment.
