Gildan Blank Polo Shirts for Budget School and Volume Programs

2 Gildan polo styles: G880 adult and G880B youth
1 Construction: 6.3 oz 50/50 cotton/poly jersey
2 Fits: adult unisex and youth sizing

Gildan G880 and G880B are 50/50 cotton/polyester jersey polos at 6.3 oz. The construction is jersey (smooth knit) rather than traditional piqué (textured woven knit), which gives the garment a different appearance and hand feel. Jersey polo construction is softer to the touch than piqué but lacks the structured texture associated with professional polo shirts. G880 is priced as the most affordable polo in wholesale and is used in programs where cost per unit drives the decision.

Jersey vs Piqué Construction

Traditional polo shirts use piqué fabric , a woven knit with a textured surface and more structured body. Gildan G880 uses jersey, which is a smooth flat knit similar to t-shirt fabric. Jersey is softer and lighter than piqué but reads more casually. For programs where a polo is needed primarily for cost and decoration purposes (school fundraisers, event giveaways, youth athletic programs), jersey construction serves the purpose. For corporate programs and customer-facing uniforms, piqué is the standard expectation.

Adult and Youth Matching

G880 (adult unisex) and G880B (youth) use the same 50/50 jersey construction, providing matching adult and youth styles for school spirit programs. This is Gildan's standard polo offering and follows the same brand positioning as the Heavy Blend sweatshirt line , high volume, competitive case pricing, consistent color availability across sizes.

For traditional piqué polo options, see cotton polos. For performance polo options, see short sleeve polos.

All styles in this collection are priced among the lowest online, with no minimum order required, with fast US shipping on stocked colors. Case pricing applies automatically, and bulk discounts increase with quantity.
