Custom Long Sleeve Polo Shirts for Men, Women and Tall Staff

A long sleeve polo can fit fine across the chest and still stop short of the wrist bone. That's the problem nobody spots on a hanger. So before you pick a color for your custom long sleeve polo shirts, look at one line on the size chart: sleeve length. The logo, honestly, is the simple bit. This group holds 27 styles across men's, women's and tall cuts. Fabrics run from performance polyester and snag-protect work knits to cotton and blends, and each listing approves both chest sides for your logo.

How Long Are the Sleeves on a Long Sleeve Polo?

Open any style here and look for the View Size Chart button. On the charts we read for this page, there's a Sleeve Length row in inches, and that row is where tall people get sorted out. Here's size L next to the same shirt in LT:

Two inches on the CORE365 and Devon & Jones pairs, an inch and a half on the Harriton. You see that gap the first time someone reaches. The 88192T is longer in the body as well: 32" at LT against 30" at L. On the women's side, the CORE365 78192 lists 33 1/2" at L, so a women's L and a men's L won't end at the same spot on the wrist.

It works like the inseam on work pants. The waist can be right and the hem can still be wrong, and nobody notices until the guy bends over a counter.

One warning on reading those numbers. Compare sleeves inside one brand. The Paragon 120 chart says its sleeve is measured from center back, and the other charts we checked don't say how they measured, so 35" from one maker isn't a sure match for 35" from another.

Fitting-room trick: order one sample in your tallest person's size and have him reach both arms straight forward. If the cuff rides up past the wrist, move him to the tall twin before you order the rest. One more fit point: the 88192T starts at LT and runs to 6XLT, so there's no small tall in that line.

Picking Custom Long Sleeve Polo Shirts by Fabric

Many of the listings name the fabric, so you're not guessing. They fall into three loose groups.

Performance polyester

This is the biggest group. The CORE365 88192 family (tall 88192T, pocket 88192P, women's 78192) is a performance piqué, the textured polo knit. CE108L and CE108LW are 4 oz recycled polyester piqué, listed as moisture-wicking, a label for knits that draw sweat outward so it can dry. The CE112L is a smooth 4.5 oz polyester jersey, and the Devon & Jones DG20L family lists 5 oz with a 100% polyester face.

Off the embroidery machine: small text behaves differently on these two knits. The bumpy piqué surface on the 88192 can break up very thin letters a little. The smooth CE112L jersey shows them cleaner, but it wants a proper backing underneath (that's the stabilizer layer hooped behind the fabric), or a dense logo puckers it.

Work knits that fight snags

Harriton has two snag-protect lines in this group, plus a tactical one. The M348L, M348LT and M348LW are Advantage Snag Protection Plus IL polos. The M208L is the Charge Snag and Soil Protect. The M211L and M211LW are Advantage Tactical polos at 6.6 oz. These also sit in our work polo shirts group.

The M211L and M211LW share a 10-color list with Desert Khaki and Tactical Green on it, muted shades that sit well on security or field crews.

Cotton, blends and a few odd ones

• Devon & Jones D110 and D110W: 6.8 oz Peruvian Pima cotton in the solid colors. For a front desk or client meetings, we'd look here first.
• Harriton M265L Easy Blend, 5.6 oz
• JERZEES 437LR Dri-Power: 50/50 cotton/poly jersey, 5.4 oz
• Adidas A1008: 8.1 oz cotton/modal/elastane with a micro waffle texture and a four-button placket (the buttoned opening at the neck). Heaviest weight listed here.
• Boxercraft BM1101, a sweater polo in 6.2 oz viscose/polyester/elastane knit jersey

Two of these have thin size runs right now. The 437LR and the D110W each list only S and 2XL, so check your sizes before you fall for one.

And one shirt in this group breaks the rule. The Paragon 120 has 3/4 sleeves, not full length. Nice shirt. Just not a long sleeve one, so don't mix it into a staff order expecting it to match the others at the wrist.

Embroidered Long Sleeve Polo Shirts: Chest, Not Sleeve

People see all that sleeve and ask for a website or a department name running down the arm. We get why. But on these 27 listings, the approved logo areas are left chest and right chest, so that's where we plan it.

We'd embroider the chest and leave the long sleeves clean. A left chest logo somewhere between 3 and 4 inches across reads well on a polo, and custom embroidery on a piqué or a Pima knit looks sharper than ink. Step one is digitizing: we rebuild the logo as stitch instructions for the machine, then keep that stitch file on hand for your next polo order. Printing is allowed on these listings too. It makes sense when the art is a photo or a soft color gradient that thread can't copy.

Two questions we get about custom embroidered long sleeve polo shirts in this group:

The 88192P has a pocket. Which chest gets the logo? Check the photo first, and tell us if pens will ride in that pocket. We'll mark the side on the mockup so you can see it before anything is stitched.

Can the Adidas mark on the A1008 come off? No. It's a contrast heat-transfer logo, pressed on rather than stitched, and it stays. If your uniform shouldn't show another brand, pick a different style.

Long Sleeve Polo Shirts with Logo, One or a Whole Staff

Who orders long sleeves? Typical buyers are staff in chilly air-conditioned offices, field techs who'd rather keep their arms covered, and client-facing teams who want to look a step up from a tee.

No minimum here. A single polo for the person who started Monday counts as a real order, and a bigger one can mix sizes, colors and cuts. Already wearing short sleeve polo shirts? Send us that style number and we'll tell you if it has a long sleeve version in this group. Every polo we carry, short or long, sits in our custom polo shirts section. Shirts, jackets, hats and more are filed under custom apparel.

The mockup comes first: it shows the logo on the polo you chose, and it reaches you in 2–3 working days. Okay that mockup, then figure 7 to 10 working days of production for a smaller run. Outfitting the whole company at once? Call us and we'll work out that date together. Price moves with your choice of polo, the stitch count, how big the logo is, how many placements and the quantity. Got questions about your logo file? The Artwork Acceptance Policy we follow answers them, so skim it before uploading.

Once the reach test tells you who needs a tall, the rest is short: list each person's cut and size, name the style, attach your logo and send it all through our quote request.
