Custom adidas A430 Performance Piqué Polo With Your Logo

Custom adidas A430 Performance Piqué Polo With Your Logo

If you are looking for a custom adidas polo that looks like a real golf shirt and holds up to an embroidered logo, the adidas A430 Men's Performance Piqué Polo is a strong pick. It is a recycled-polyester piqué knit with a classic collar and placket, it comes in 17 colors, and it is the updated style that replaces the discontinued adidas A130. The blank starts at $42.66. Below you will find the specs that matter for decoration, our recommended methods and placements, and how to order.

Specs that matter for decoration

  • Fabric: 4.3 oz./yd² 100% recycled polyester piqué with a hydrophilic finish.
  • Construction: ribbed-knit collar and three-button placket.
  • Brand mark: a contrast silicone adidas logo on the right sleeve.
  • Sizes: XS through 4XL (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL).
  • Colors: 17 options: Almost Yellow, Black, Blue Fusion, Bright Orange, Collegiate Burgundy, Collegiate Green, Collegiate Navy, Collegiate Purple, Collegiate Royal, Glow Blue, Grey Three, Light Flash Purple, Lucid Pink, Onix, Power Red, Vivid Green and White.
  • Blank price: starts at $42.66 before decoration.

The piqué texture gives the A430 a little more structure than a smooth jersey performance polo, and at 4.3 ounces it is still light and breathable. For decoration, that means embroidery sits a bit better than on an ultra-thin knit, but it is still a stretchy polyester, so the backing and stitch density need to be right.

Best decoration method

Embroidery

Embroidery is the go-to for a piqué polo. We use a lightweight cutaway or no-show mesh backing to keep the logo from puckering, and we keep stitch counts moderate so the design stays flexible and does not feel stiff against the chest. Logos with clean shapes and readable lettering stitch best. If your logo has very small text, we may suggest simplifying it slightly or bumping the size up. Embroidery has no minimum, so you can order a handful or a few hundred.

DTF transfers

For full-color logos, gradients or fine detail that will not stitch cleanly, a DTF transfer is a great alternative. It is light, flexible and has no minimum. Some customers do embroidery on the chest and a DTF transfer on the back for a sponsor list or event name.

Screen printing

We can screen print polyester, but on a polo it is usually reserved for bigger runs of simple artwork (no hard minimum, 48+ pieces per design recommended). Ask about it in your quote if it fits your project.

Placement suggestions

  • Left chest: the standard placement, typically 3.5–4 in wide.
  • Left sleeve: a small secondary logo or text around 2.5–3 in wide. The right sleeve has the adidas mark.
  • Back yoke: a company name or website below the collar, roughly 8–10 in wide.
  • Right chest: an employee name or event date if you need one.

Who orders it

  • Golf events and tournaments, where a branded polo doubles as the player gift.
  • Corporate teams and front desks that want a recognizable brand and a professional look.
  • Resorts, casinos and hospitality staff who need a deep color range to match uniforms.
  • Construction and mining management, including project managers, safety staff and estimators who move between the office and the field.
  • Schools and athletic programs, since many of the color names line up with team colors.

We work with businesses around Yerington, Fernley, Carson City and Reno, and ship orders across the US. The A430 is a widely used corporate polo in general, so it is easy to reorder and match as your team grows.

Pair it with

For a matching kit, add the adidas A401 Ultimate365 Lightweight Quarter-Zip as a layer over the polo. If some of your crew wants something even lighter for hot days, the A230 Performance Polo is a thinner option. Find both on our adidas hub page.
