Dry Fit-type polos?

[Chris A]

Bought some through my local embroidery shop (Dry-Tek is the brand) and they SUCK. After one day the have pulls all over. Even Steph wore one out to a quote and came back with snags. Where are you guys getting yours and what brand, and how successful have you been with keeping them holding together?

https://www.umidirect.com/home.asp is where we bought a bunch of T-shirts. Can't afford Polos yet so I haven't really looked at them.

They have an add for 200 Polos starting at $5 on the front page today : }

 

[Chris A]

We paid decent money for em so I thought they would hold up but one day and they look like their 3 months old with all the snags!

I have always purchased ours at Kohl's ( dept store) I have had some for over 4 years. Same "wicking" type material and occasionally they'll snag but not often. I usually lose mine to "stripper" when doing VCT tile. I think the BN on collar is Grannd

[Desk Jockey]

got mine from marks work warehouse in Canada
paid anywhere from $15-22
Some of them are over 2 years old now and when compared with the new shirts I cant pick out which ones are the old stock :O

The brand is DriWear

 

[Chris A]

they were around $25 a piece, I think Steph said they were middle of the road, I would pay more if I knew they would last, dunno about $45 apiece though dang

Thanks, I like those. Did you get a deal because the print was backwards?

 

[Royal Man]

The queensburo adidas shirts are a much better shirt.( A zipper are you kidding me? )Plus they have a 10 year guarantee. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJyYQSU9K8E&feature=share&list=PL5886D36EAF54BDE9

 

[Chris A]

Yeah the zippers wouldn't work for me

The Adidas shirts look like this: https://www.google.com/search?aq=&rlz=1T4GGNI_enUS515US515&q=adidas%20climalite%20polo%20shirts&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=hRaUUfCqMYSYygHjg4DQDA&biw=1067&bih=424&sei=yBaUUZmoM4aCyAG-yYCADg#imgrc=IVroPbNmkL7rvM%3A%3BgeUMK2FpquxHSM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fimages.cheapestees.com%252Fproduct%252Fdetail%252Fadidas-golf-climalite-3-stripes-cuff-polo-a76.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.cheapestees.com%252Fadidas-golf-climalite-3-stripes-cuff-polo-a76.html%3B650%3B650

I'll go back to cotton before I spend $45 on a fackin shirt though...

 

[Royal Man]

Even at that price it only takes one average job to pay for 6 shirts that will last for over 2 years and impress your clients much more that a cotton shirt or God forbid a freaking t shirt. The image improvement will pay for the shirts many time over. Image is very important in carpet cleaning.

 

[jcooper]

I have the Nike dry-fit shirts, they also will snag. I wouldn't get white again(not smart)...!

Yoakum could wear a 3 piece suit and he'd still look like he was going to a sex offender hearing

Some of the lightweight shirt are poor quality. I buy the Port Authority Signature series. They seem to hold up pretty well. Local lady does my shirts. They end up cost to me about $26 each with print.

 

[BradFenstermaker]

Chris look into the Gilden brand shirts. Not the same style fabric as your new ones. But very good quality for very fair price. I still have some 7-8 yrs old that look decent.

 

[steve g]

what you want is a 100% polyester shirt. these dry quickly are wrinkle free and stain free. yes polyester is very very good in some applications. I buy my 100% polyester/dryfit shirts at walmart for $12 each in various styles. sometimes they are on special for alot less. I bought a long sleeve one on clearance for $3 recently. I normally wear short sleeve.

We just got new moisture dry type shirts from our local embroidery store. We got the Holloway Brand and they are a snag free type shirt. PN 65378 or PN 85378 is the model number on the tag. Difficult to read the dang thing....and I have my arms stretched out a long way, cheaters on and the magnifing app on the phone and a real magnifing glass on it.

Here is a link to our Facebook with the pics.

Chris - the Nike drifit have worked well for us. Almost a year old and no snags yet. Decent price and great color choices.

 

[Royal Man]

The Nike dryfits hold up well. But, From my experience, they sure are hot and don't breath well.

 

[ThaBeast]

Nike, I have some that are three years old and still look great. Some days when it is really hot and humid I switch back to two cotton polos for the day, change after lunch

[dealtimeman]

All of our Nike dry fits snag real bad.

 

[Jason del Norte]

Best polos are Apartment 9 brand available at Kohls. I have dozens of them.

Just remember nothing show off your moobs like a polo shirt. Here's an example.
