While we call it our Lightweight Pocket Polo, others would consider this sturdy shirt a mid- or heavy-weight. It’s knitted with yarns made from Peruvian Tanguis, the strongest and finest cotton available. The sturdy 6.3-oz. pique boasts a textured surface that’s comfortable against the skin and breathes quite well, so it’s comfortable in any short-sleeve weather. The pique fabric has ample stretch for non-binding comfort during active use, yet is sturdy enough to retain its shape, year after year. The side-seam vents are reinforced with herringbone tape for structure and longevity, and with the extended rear hem, coverage is assured while bending or squatting. The front features a traditional two-button placket and single open-stow chest pocket– a convenient place to stash a license, receipts or other low-profile items. We gave each polo a special prewash treatment to prevent pilling and control shrinkage–to ensure it looks even better after extended use.
