Knitted & Long-Sleeve Polos 

Knitted Polos: A knitted polo shirt offers a more refined alternative to a traditional polo, with a softer construction and textured finish. Pair knitted polos with chinos or tailored trousers for a polished look, or wear one beneath a blazer for elevated smart-casual dressing. Pair with shorts for relaxed warm-weather occasions.

Long-Sleeve & Merino Polos: Long sleeve polo shirts provide additional coverage for cooler conditions and transition easily between seasons. Merino polo knits offer a lightweight wool option that can be worn on their own or layered with blazers, jackets and outerwear.

How to Style Men's Polo Shirts

For relaxed summer dressing, wear a short-sleeve polo with men's shorts and casual footwear. When temperatures cool, choose a long-sleeve or Merino polo and layer it beneath a blazer or jacket.
