Fabric Constructions
Each polo shirt construction has a distinct visual character, hand-feel and market application. Selection starts with your target buyer segment.
Piqué / Polo Knit
ClassicGSM Range
180–240 GSM
Hand Feel
Textured raised surface, structured, breathable
Classic polo knit piqué defines the polo shirt construction globally. The interlocked double-faced structure creates a distinctive textured surface that improves air circulation significantly versus flat jersey. Embroidery registers with excellent fidelity on the raised texture — this is why embroidery dominates polo shirt decoration across all markets.
Technical Spec
100% combed cotton or cotton/polyester blend. GSM 180–240. Classic honeycomb cell texture. Reactive dyed. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 compliant.
