Kitting Out a Sports & Leisure Team: A Practical Workwear Guide

We’ve helped plenty of Sports & Leisure businesses figure out their workwear. Some come to us knowing exactly what they want. Most just know they need “something decent with our logo on it.” Either way, we can help — and this guide is a good starting point.

The Essentials for Sports & Leisure Teams

Specialist Items

Every Sports & Leisure business is different, and some roles need specific gear. We can advise on what’s required for your particular setup — whether that’s PPE, hi-vis, safety footwear, or industry-specific clothing. If you’re not sure what regulations apply to your team, just ask us.

The Basics

Start with what your team will wear every day. For most Sports & Leisure roles, that’s polo shirts or t-shirts as a base layer — something comfortable for all-day wear that looks tidy and takes a logo well. Polycotton blends tend to be the best all-rounder: breathable, durable, and easy to wash.

Jackets and Layers

This is the UK — your team is going to need outerwear. Softshell jackets are our most recommended option for Sports & Leisure because they’re warm, water-resistant, and look smart with embroidery. For heavier rain or colder conditions, waterproof jackets or insulated coats are the way to go.
