T-Shirts & Polos

Which crew T-shirts or team polo shirts are suitable depends primarily on the intended use. For active days on the water, breathable, stretchy, and quick-drying materials are particularly practical. For club events, travel, or shared appointments, cotton and piqué fabrics can be a suitable choice. The current Marinepool range therefore includes classic T-shirts, polo shirts, functional Tec polos, and long-sleeve styles for women and men.

A classic crew polo shirt combines the characteristic polo collar with a clean team look. This makes it suitable both on board and for events, award ceremonies, club appointments, or travel. Models such as the Crew Premium Polo 2 are representative of this approach. The women’s and men’s versions are made from a lightweight piqué fabric with cotton and elastane and were specifically developed for crew and team use.

For more athletic requirements, technical polo shirts offer additional functional features. The Premium Tec Polo for women and men, for example, uses lightweight functional fabric. The women’s version is breathable, quick-drying, moisture-absorbing, and stretchy. A Polygiene® treatment adds antibacterial and odor-resistant properties. Tec polos like these are particularly suitable for active crews spending longer periods on the water or outdoors in warm temperatures.

Team T-shirts offer a more sporty and straightforward alternative to polo shirts. They are suitable for training, preparation at the marina, team travel, events, and leisure. The Neyla T-Shirt Women and the Jaden T-Shirt Men, for example, are designed for crew wear and corporate wear and are made from organic cotton with elastane. Both are intended for coordinated team appearances and additional customisation.

An important part of the Marinepool team and crew wear category is the option for individual customisation. Many T-shirts and polo shirts can be personalised with logos or lettering. Depending on the team, this can include club crests, yacht names, crew logos, sponsor branding, or company logos. In this way, different garments can be visually connected through a consistent design.

For larger crews in particular, customisation should be taken into account during product selection. Colour, cut, and available logo areas should suit the desired branding. With women’s and men’s styles, consistent logo positioning is also recommended so that the branding appears coordinated despite different fits. In addition to classic patches, other types of logo application may also be suitable depending on the product and finishing method.

For a complete crew outfit, T-shirts and polo shirts can be combined with other Marinepool team wear products. On cooler days, softshell jackets, vests, fleece, or team jackets complement the outfit. Crew trousers, Bermuda shorts, and skirts create a coordinated look for the lower body, while caps and other accessories complete the team concept. This allows a crew to adapt its clothing to the weather, occasion, and activity without losing a consistent appearance.

When choosing the right garments, colour and design should therefore not be the only considerations. Material, fit, activity level, and temperature are equally important. Technical polos and functional shirts are particularly suitable for active days, while cotton and piqué styles offer a versatile solution for the yacht club, team travel, and events. A well-planned crew wear concept combines both areas and enables a consistent team appearance from training sessions to shared club events.

The category currently includes a wide selection of classic and technical styles for different team and crew requirements.

The choice of material should depend on how active the team is and the conditions in which the clothing will be worn.

Cotton and piqué are particularly suitable for yacht clubs, events, crew travel, and situations where a comfortable feel against the skin is the priority. Models with added stretch also provide greater freedom of movement.

Technical fabrics are the better choice for regattas, active work on board, and high temperatures. They can transport moisture more efficiently, dry faster, and, depending on the model, offer additional features such as UV protection, odor control, or a cooling effect. The range includes both classic and technical options for team and crew use.

For larger yacht clubs and teams, it can be useful to combine both types of material within a single clothing concept: for example, a technical polo for regattas and training and a classic crew polo for events and shared team occasions.

Selected technical polos and shirts from Marinepool feature Polygiene StayFresh™. The technology reduces odor-causing bacteria in the fabric.

For crews, this can be particularly useful during long regatta days, travel, and multi-day events. The clothing stays fresh for longer and, depending on use, may need to be washed less frequently. However, this does not replace regular cleaning in accordance with the respective care instructions.

Many Marinepool T-shirts and polo shirts are designed for teamwear, crew wear, or individual branding. This allows yacht clubs, regatta teams, companies, and other groups to adapt their clothing to their own visual identity.

Club crests, yacht names, crew logos, sponsor branding, or company logos can be incorporated into the clothing concept. Particularly for larger teams, the type of logo, position, size, and colour scheme should be defined as consistently as possible across women’s and men’s styles.

For crews that regularly reorder their clothing, it is advisable to document the model, colour, logo position, and customisation method. This makes it easier to provide new team members with a consistent outfit at a later stage.

T-shirts and polo shirts often form the basis of a complete team outfit. In warm temperatures, they can be combined with team trousers and skirts or skorts. Caps and matching shoes complete the coordinated team appearance.

When temperatures drop, vests, fleece, softshell jackets, or lightweight midlayers can be worn on top. For rain and windy conditions, a suitable crew or sailing jacket completes the clothing system. This allows a yacht club or team to create different outfits for regattas, the marina, travel, and events, while maintaining consistent colours and recognisable branding across all layers.

Marinepool has been and continues to be a partner of numerous international regattas, sailing events, and top-level teams. These include the Austrian Sailing Federation, the German Sailing League, and the Bayerischer Yacht-Club. Regattas and longer events in particular show what team wear needs to deliver: comfortable wear, freedom of movement, functional materials, and a consistent appearance across different sizes and fits.

We apply this experience to both classic crew polos and technical shirts for active use. Depending on the model, quick-drying materials, UV protection, odor-resistant technologies, or cooling properties complement the functional features. At the same time, we take into account the requirements of clubs and teams that want to customise their clothing with club crests, yacht names, crew logos, or sponsor branding.

Marinepool combines maritime tradition with modern functional fabrics and versatile crew wear concepts. Classic polo shirts made from cotton or piqué fabrics are suitable for the yacht club, events, and team travel, while technical Tec polos and functional shirts are designed for active use during training, regattas, and warm conditions.

Women’s and men’s styles, coordinated colours, and different fits make it possible to equip larger teams appropriately while maintaining a recognisable overall appearance. Many T-shirts and polo shirts offer suitable areas for individual customisation and can be combined with crew jackets, softshell jackets, vests, trousers, Bermuda shorts, skirts, and other Marinepool team wear products. This creates a coordinated outfit that works from active use on the water to shared appearances at the yacht club.

Both classic piqué polos and technical Tec polos are suitable for yacht crews. The best option depends on the intended use. For regattas and active work on board, lightweight, quick-drying, and breathable functional fabrics are particularly practical. For the yacht club, events, and team travel, classic crew polos offer a versatile alternative. Many teams therefore combine both options as part of their crew clothing.

Many models are suitable for crew wear, team wear, and individual branding. Depending on the product, club crests, yacht names, team logos, company branding, or sponsor logos can be added. The most suitable customisation method depends on the material of the respective T-shirt or polo shirt.

A classic position is the chest, as the logo can remain clearly visible even when worn under an open jacket or vest. Depending on the design, the sleeves or back can also be used. When using several women’s and men’s styles, the position should be chosen so that the branding appears consistent despite different cuts. For larger orders, a customised sample is therefore recommended before full production.

Polo shirts combine a sporty look with a consistent team appearance. The collar creates a distinctive crew style, while the shirts remain lightweight enough for warm days. They can also be easily worn under crew jackets, vests, or softshell jackets.

Team T-shirts and crew polos provide a versatile foundation for yacht clubs, regatta teams, boat crews, sailing clubs, and other teams. Classic piqué and cotton styles are suitable for yacht club life, events, and team travel, while technical Tec polos and functional shirts with quick-drying, breathable properties and, depending on the model, UV protection or odor control are designed for active use. Many styles can be individually customised with a club crest, yacht name, team logo, or sponsor branding. Women’s and men’s versions help create a coordinated team appearance. Combined with trousers, Bermuda shorts, skirts, vests, softshell jackets, and crew jackets, they create flexible crew clothing for regattas, training, the yacht club, and events. Since 1991, Marinepool has incorporated experience from international watersports into the development of functional team wear.
