General Contractor Apparel for Women: Polos, Tees, Hoodies, and Cropped Pieces

Women in construction make up a growing share of project managers, superintendents, owners, and crew members. The catalog covers the women's side of general contractor apparel with cotton pique polos, premium tees, long-sleeves, cropped hoodies, tanks, and biker shorts. Same shop, same company logo, same flat ordering process as the men's lineup.

Why a Women's Cut Matters for Construction Apparel

A women's cut shirt is not just a smaller men's shirt:

• Shoulder, bust, and waist proportions differ from a unisex cut. A men's small often does not fit a woman properly.
• Length on a women's tee or polo is typically shorter, sitting at the hip instead of mid-thigh.
• Cut on the sleeve tends to be narrower, which matters for women who work in the field and need full arm mobility.

For female GCs, project managers, and crew members, having a women's cut option on the shop signals the company sees them and stocks for them. It is a small but real recruiting and retention signal.

Running Men's and Women's Pieces on One Shop

The shop holds men's and women's versions of the same product as separate items under the same brand. A female crew member or project manager goes to the same shop link, picks the women's polo, and orders her size. A male crew member picks the men's polo on the same shop. Both shirts carry the same embroidered company logo.

No separate shop is needed for women's apparel. The construction company runs one shop link, lists both men's and women's versions of the polo, tee, and long-sleeve, and lets each crew member pick their preferred cut at checkout. This is the standard configuration for most general contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the catalog have women's sizing for hi-vis or safety shirts?

The catalog focuses on branded soft-goods (tees, polos, hoodies, sweatshirts, athletic pants, hats). Dedicated hi-vis safety shirts and class-rated safety vests are sourced through specialized safety vendors. For visibility, branded tees in safety yellow or safety orange can serve as a soft-good alternative on lower-risk sites.

Are the women's polos and tees suitable for daily site wear?

Yes. The Gildan women's cotton pique polo, Next Level women's cotton tees, and Bella+Canvas women's favorite tee are commercial-grade pieces used across hospitality, healthcare, and corporate uniform programs. Daily site wear, walk-throughs, and meetings are well within their durability range.

Can the women's polos be personalized with names?

Yes. The same personalization options that work on the men's polos work on the women's polos. Personalization can be enabled at checkout so each polo prints with the company logo on the left chest and the personal name on the right chest.

Is there a women's sized hoodie option for the field?

Yes. The Women's Premium Cropped Hoodie at $47.88 VIP base is the women's sized option in the hoodie catalog. For a longer-length women's hoodie that matches the men's pullover, the unisex Comfort Soft Hoodie at $36.88 base sizes down to women's small and medium.
