Looking for a navy long sleeve uniform polo 👕 WITHOUT BUTTONS please if anyone can help me find. Zipper or snap or magnetic closure perhaps?
If you know of an actual store and not a website that carries, I’m in the 5 Towns.
Many thanks 🙏🏻 for trying to help!!!

I've had this issue and not found a solution.
I ended up cutting the buttons off a regular polo and sewing snaps in instead.

Just saw this https://www.marksandspencer.co.....06713

Designed as part of our Adaptive range that promotes Easy Dressing, these pure cotton polo shirts have a hidden riptape fastening behind the button placket making dressing for school easier, quicker and more comfortable for both parents and children. Stain resistant finish ensuring protection from spills and splashes. We only ever use responsibly sourced cotton for our clothes.

School uniform specially designed for children with sensory issues or those who just need a little extra help when dressing. We removed fiddly zips / buttons to make dressing easier. Regular Fit – our classic regular fit.

Not in store but maybe this will work.
It's says 'boys' but I imagine it can be worn for girls too

They're white. Dye them.

The simplest solution might be to sew up the buttonholes and sew in snaps or whatever closure you want to use. Leave the buttons for show or take them off if it's still a problem.

Lands End line has the seam all the way down like an Oxford style but we need polo.
I’m going to order one of the Izod ones linked above from Amazon and we’ll take it from there!
Thanks a million to those who took the time to give suggestions or links! 🫶🏻
