The Port Authority K500 Silk Touch Polo has been one of the most consistently ordered corporate polos in the wholesale market for years, and its staying power comes down to the fabric. The 65/35 poly/cotton pique produces a noticeably smooth, silky surface that earns the Silk Touch name — it looks more polished than a standard cotton pique polo and holds up better through repeated washing without wrinkling or shrinking out of shape. For managed uniform programs, hospitality staff, corporate casual accounts, and team programs that want a professional polo at a practical price, the K500 is a reliable first choice.
The 50-plus color range is one of the widest of any wholesale polo, covering standard corporate colors, pastels, and a full spectrum of brights that most performance polos don't offer. Metal buttons with dyed-to-match rims give it a more finished, professional detail than plain plastic alternatives. Side vents add comfort for all-day wear and ease of movement for active staff roles. Left chest embroidery is the most common decoration approach and the smooth pique surface holds stitching cleanly.
For a women's version in the same Silk Touch construction, the Port Authority L500 Ladies Silk Touch Polo is the natural companion for mixed-gender uniform programs. For a performance moisture-wicking polo at a similar price point, the Team 365 TT51 Zone Performance Polo is worth comparing. For a heavier pique polo with more structure, the Tultex 400 Men's 50/50 Sport Pique Polo steps up to 6.7 ounces.
FAQ
What makes the K500 a "Silk Touch" polo?
The Silk Touch name refers to the smooth, silky hand feel produced by the 65/35 poly/cotton pique construction. The higher polyester content gives it a softer, more polished surface than a standard cotton pique polo, and the wrinkle and shrink resistance keeps it looking sharp through repeated washing.
Is the K500 good for embroidery?
Yes. The smooth pique surface is one of the better substrates for left-chest logo embroidery in the wholesale polo category. The structured fabric holds stitching cleanly without excessive puckering, and the flat knit collar provides a stable surface for collar or sleeve decoration as well.
What sizes are available?
XS through 6XL, one of the widest size ranges of any polo in the wholesale market.
