- Pro: Excellent durability; it holds its shape and colour exceptionally well after many industrial washes.
- Con: The standard unisex fit can be a little boxy for team members with a slighter frame.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View Bistro in Whitby needed to upgrade their team's uniforms. Their existing polos were fading quickly from constant washing and looked unprofessional after just a few weeks, which wasn't ideal for their busy seaside location.
"We were tired of replacing uniforms every few months. The Portwest polos were recommended for their durability, and they haven't disappointed. They still look as vibrant and smart as the day we got them, even with all the sea air and constant washing."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Harbour View Bistro
The switch has significantly improved team presentation and has cut their annual budget for replacement workwear by nearly 40%.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting Started
- Upon delivery, unpack and check all shirts against your order to ensure sizes and colours are correct.
- We recommend an initial wash before the first wear to soften the fabric.
- Distribute to your team, ensuring everyone has a comfortable and correct fit.
Keeping It Going
- Machine wash with similar colours to maintain the vibrant royal blue.
- Avoid using harsh bleaches which can damage the fabric and fade the colour.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry to prolong the life of the shirt.
- Can be ironed on a warm setting if needed, but the polycotton blend is naturally crease-resistant.
