FAQ
1) What fabric is best for a polo shirt?
It depends on the occasion and the season. Cotton piqué is the most versatile — structured, breathable and easy to maintain. Merino wool extends the polo into cooler months and regulates temperature more effectively than cotton. Linen works best in heat, offering maximum breathability with a clean collar structure. For year-round use, a merino polo is the strongest single investment.
2) What is a buttonless polo?
A buttonless polo has no button placket on the chest. The neckline and collar are finished cleanly without hardware, giving the front of the garment an uninterrupted line. It sits closer to knitwear in feel while retaining the structure of a collar. Worn alone or under a blazer, it reads as more refined than a standard polo without requiring more effort.
3) How should polos for men fit?
The shoulder seam sits at the edge of the shoulder, not past it. Clean through the chest with no pulling at the collar. Slim through the body without being tight. The hem length works whether worn tucked or untucked. If the collar gaps or the chest pulls across the buttons, size up. The collar is the first thing that fails on a poor fit — if it does not sit flat, the shirt is wrong.
