This is a straightforward, workhorse polo shirt from Portwest, made from a 320g polycotton pique fabric. It sits in a practical middle ground — heavier than a basic promotional polo, but comfortable enough for staff who are on their feet through a full shift. The polycotton blend balances durability with breathability, which matters in kitchens and service environments where temperatures can climb quickly.

In day-to-day use, the construction holds up well under the kind of repeated commercial laundering that front-of-house and kitchen support garments go through. The tapered neck, reinforced shoulder seams, and ribbed sleeve cuffs all contribute to the shirt retaining its shape over time rather than sagging or distorting after a few weeks of regular washing. Self-coloured buttons keep the appearance tidy and reduce the risk of contrast buttons fading at a different rate to the fabric.

  • Suitable for commercial laundering — important for operations with in-house laundry
  • Reinforced shoulders reduce wear at the highest stress points
  • Polycotton fabric resists shrinkage better than pure cotton alternatives
  • Available across a broad size range to fit mixed teams

This shirt is well suited to front-of-house staff, kitchen porters, and general catering support roles where a presentable but hardwearing uniform is needed. It is not a chef's jacket replacement, and operators needing a more formal front-of-house look may want to consider a smarter alternative. For sites with very high staff turnover or large teams, buying in bulk is worth discussing.

If you are equipping a full team or are unsure about sizing across a mixed workforce, we are happy to help you work through the right quantities and sizes before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Is this polo shirt suitable for use in commercial kitchen environments?

It is well suited to kitchen support and front-of-house roles where a practical, presentable uniform is needed. It is not a substitute for a chef's jacket or PPE-rated workwear in roles requiring heat or splash protection.

Can this shirt be laundered in a commercial on-site laundry?

Yes — it is rated suitable for commercial laundering, which makes it a practical choice for operations that wash staff uniforms in-house rather than relying on domestic machines.

How should I choose the right size for my team?

Portwest provide a chest measurement guide for each size, and we would recommend checking those measurements against your team rather than relying on S/M/L alone, as sizing can vary between manufacturers. If you are ordering for a large team, it is worth getting in touch before placing your order to make sure you get the split of sizes right.
