Having your outfit fully personalized involves creating a model (Mock-up) specific to each person. Who says personalization, also says digital printing in sheets, sublimation, then personalized printing for each order.
To keep our prices competitive and accessible to everyone, small budgets, small and large clubs, we ask for a minimum of 10 pieces per product group “tops” and “bottoms" clothes.
- For example, for the “tops clothes” group, you can order 4 short-sleeved jerseys + 3 long-sleeved jerseys + 2 thermal jackets + 1 windbreaker. This makes a total of 10 “tops”.
- Another example, for the “bottoms clothes” group, you can order 4 men’s shorts + 2 women’s shorts + 1 women’s tights + 3 men’s tights. That makes a total of 10 pieces in this “bottoms” group.
We do not require any minimum per model.

Discover all our tips for best maintaining your POLI products and maximizing their longevity!
In order to best preserve your clothes, and to avoid damaging the fibers of your POLI clothing, here are some tips:
- We recommend that you do not mix your POLI garment with other garments (especially garments with Velcro fasteners which could get caught and damage the fabric of your POLI garment).
- Remember to close the various zippers or other hooks on your POLI clothing, to prevent them from getting caught on other pieces of fabric.
- Choose a gentle detergent, suitable for synthetic fabrics. And above all, ban fabric softeners when washing your POLI clothes because they directly attack the technical fibers of your products. Choose washing cycles designed to wash delicate textiles, as well as a washing program with a maximum temperature of 30° or hand washing in cold water.
- We strongly advise against ironing your POLI clothes or putting them in your dryer, as this could cause considerable and irreversible damage to your POLI clothes.
