Thinking of this design for wicking polo shirts. I’ll have to talk to the printer if it has to be embroidered or if print will work. Any thoughts or constructive comments?
I would go with just the logo on the front, with maybe your name underneath.

Like Alex said just a logo on the front would be good.
Maybe Ken @cactus27 can chime in on the best way to get them done he seems to know a little something about it 
moisture wicking material is usually treated with a wicking agent which wears out with washings.
vapor apparel is the only brand i know of made with actual moisture wicking polyester yarn.
polyester is well suited to full colour “dye sublimation printing” if the fabric is white or light coloured.
sublimation printing is well suited to one offs or volume printing.
some moisture wicking shirts are actually very uncomfortable to wear due to the weave.
if it’s a cotton product “direct to garment” printing is a great option and is available on light or dark fabrics (with the right equipment)

Not sure of white. Did that with T’s and dirt made them look less than ideal. I have a dark blue DryTec embroidered on the front for now, but I want the back done because - well - when cleaning windows that is what people see.
I like it , an I would do the back also. I think you colors would look good on a grayish shirt . White gets dirty to easy , an it’s hard to clean. For power washing ya white would be the only way to go
I want mine to be set up like your front and back design with only the embroidered business name and number on the back and the name or logo over the L breast pocket.
Moisture wicking is mandatory, so I’m not interested in 100% cotton.
Yellow and black are my colors, I like the way they contrast.
Front only and get it embroidered cause it looks classier than print.
What i meant by this i think all you need on the front of the shirt is the logo nothing else.
The back looks good with the logo and number, in the back make sure they dont print it up to high on the back.

Exactly. I didn’t mean to suggest not getting the back done. Just simplifying the front.
And I would add: maybe lose the phone number on the front, as well. If the customer is close enough to read it and they’re interested, they’ll ask for a card. A phone number on the back is good, because some people don’t want to ‘sneak up on you’ and disturb you while you’re busy working. We usually see their reflection in the glass, but, yeah…

This is what I have now, front only. (embroidered). Suggestion is to just use this larger on the back and drop the number on the front?

I always had my phone number on my shirts never on the front always on the back.
Honestly I believe shirts are for Lookimg professional , an keeping your brand out there.
I haven’t gotten many phone calls from people saying they got my number from my shirt. Maybe 1 or 2.
They usually will walk up an ask for a card

Just the logo in the front is the way to go imo

I totally agree with this. Just figured since the logo would be there, then no harm done with the number. Aesthetically I think the front logo looks better without the number on the front.
