Gildan G828L - Women's Premium Cotton® Women's Double Piqué Polo - Maroon
Selected Color: Maroon16 colors

Description
The Gildan G828L is a women's Premium Cotton double pique polo constructed from 6.6 oz 100% preshrunk combed ring-spun cotton double pique. The combed ring-spun yarn produces a smoother, more refined pique face than open-end polos, which matters for embroidered logos where the stitch definition needs to read cleanly against the fabric surface. Double pique knit adds density and structure compared to single pique bodies.
The contoured welt collar and cuffs hold their shape through repeated laundering without curling. A clean finished 1-inch wide reversed placket with reinforced bottom box sits flat under embroidery hoops. Three dyed-to-match buttons coordinate with the body colour. Rolled forward topstitched shoulders prevent seam lines from showing on the front. A missy contoured silhouette with side seams and 2.5-inch side vents creates a women's fit distinct from boxy unisex polo cuts. Double-needle bottom hem adds durability.
For decoration, embroidery is the primary method for pique polos. The structured 6.6 oz double pique face holds high stitch counts without puckering, and left-chest placement is the standard position. DTF transfers bond firmly to the cotton pique. Screen printing works on the flat front panel, though pique texture breaks fine halftone detail so bold designs print cleanest. DTG is viable for bold art but pique texture affects fine detail.
