Boys striped polo shirt blank in 6+ oz combed cotton with 5% spandex: gray, ice blue and royal blue stripes, sizes 6M-8, ships same or next business day. It's a smooth flat knit, not a textured pique, and it's one of our 25 most-ordered blanks this year; we now ship more of this striped polo than the solid one.
The stripes are narrow, one color alternating with white: gray and white, ice blue and white (a pale blue), and royal blue and white. They run edge to edge across the body, both sleeves and the collar. The collar is striped too; on our striped tee the neck is solid. A short two-button placket with white buttons closes the front, the short sleeves finish with a plain turned hem, and the bottom hem is straight. The left chest beside the placket is the spot for a design. On a 4T the chest measures 13 in across flat, so a 2.5 in monogram or applique sits on the stripes with room on either side. It takes embroidery, applique and HTV. It's 95% combed cotton with 5% spandex, so set the press for cotton and skip sublimation; that needs a polyester blank.
There are 9 sizes, and the chart measures the garment lying flat:
- Babies 6M, 12M and 18M; toddlers 2T, 3T, 4T and 5T; kids 6 and 8.
- Chest width: 10.5 in at 6M, 12 in at 2T, 14 in at 5T, 15.75 in at size 8
- Length: 13.5 in at 6M, 16.25 in at 2T, 18 in at 5T, 21.5 in at size 8
The order we build this polo blank for is an Easter or church-picture outfit: a name on the left chest, the striped collar left alone, and boys striped pants in the same 95% cotton, 5% spandex blend underneath. Royal blue is the one colorway it shares with the striped short sleeve tee, so a polo-and-tee brothers set in royal blue and white is one you can actually build. The solid short sleeve polo comes in 5 colors for plain orders, the long sleeve polo covers fall in the same 5, and the rest of the line is on our shirt blanks for embroidery page. There's no minimum, so an Etsy shop can stitch one 4T before it lists the run. It leaves Attalla, Alabama on weekdays.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the fit compare to regular kids' shirts?
Our shirts are true to size with a built-in shrinkage allowance. Boy's styles have a slim, naturally tapered fit with extra length. Girl's styles include signature ruffle or flutter sleeve details.
Will the fabric hold up to dense embroidery?
Yes. Our 6+ oz 100% combed cotton interlock is specifically chosen for embroidery. It's noticeably thicker than standard blanks and holds dense stitches without puckering or tearing.
