The Knit Polo Is the King of Casual Summer Shirts
A polo is a summer staple — sporty, classic, and as versatile as Gary Oldman. While you default to the typical cotton pique variety, we advocate swapping in a knit instead. With rib knit cuffs at the hem and sleeves, these shirts have a sleeker, more form-fitting silhouette than their cotton cousins. After all, you didn’t work out all winter for nothing.

Pattern Play
It’s not enough to go all-in with your new knit polo. Kick it up with some fresh patterns, too. Whether subtle or bold, it’s time to move beyond solid colours.
