The regular fit creates a balanced silhouette that feels relaxed without losing its clean appearance. Its muted olive green shade adds depth to neutral wardrobes and moves naturally between casual, smart-casual and office settings.
Fabric & Comfort
The cotton-acrylic construction brings together the natural softness and breathability of cotton with the resilience and easy-care qualities of acrylic. The knitted structure gives the polo a subtly textured finish while remaining comfortable enough for extended wear throughout the year.
- Breathability: The 55% cotton content supports a comfortable, breathable feel during everyday wear.
- Durability: Acrylic adds resilience to the knit, helping it withstand frequent wear and washing.
- Shape retention: The blended construction helps the polo retain its structure and balanced silhouette over time.
- Texture: The knitted surface introduces subtle visual depth and a more refined character than a traditional jersey polo.
- Seasonal versatility: Lightweight yet insulating enough for changing temperatures, making it suitable across multiple seasons.
Fit
Designed in a regular fit, the Olive Green Knitted Polo follows the body naturally without sitting too close. The knitted construction and balanced proportions provide comfortable movement while maintaining the composed appearance expected from a smarter polo.
- Fit type: Regular fit with a clean, balanced silhouette.
- Shoulder structure: Naturally shaped shoulders create an easy, refined line without excessive structure.
- Taper: A straightforward body shape keeps the polo neat while allowing comfortable room through the torso.
- Movement comfort: The regular cut allows natural freedom of movement throughout the day.
- Styling flexibility: Wear it untucked for a relaxed look or combine it with tailored trousers for a sharper smart-casual outfit.
Why Choose a Knitted Polo?
A knitted polo offers a considered middle ground between traditional polo shirts and lightweight knitwear. The collar and placket provide familiar structure, while the knitted fabric creates a softer texture and more distinctive finish. This makes it particularly useful when a T-shirt feels too casual but a shirt feels unnecessarily formal.
Olive green reinforces that versatility with a grounded, understated colour that works naturally alongside navy, beige, cream, charcoal and denim.
- At the office: Pair with tailored navy or charcoal trousers for a relaxed professional look.
- At the weekend: Combine with beige chinos or dark denim and clean trainers.
- For dinners and social occasions: Wear with tailored trousers and loafers for understated smart-casual dressing.
- During transitional weather: Layer beneath a jacket or overshirt without adding unnecessary bulk.
Everyday Performance
The cotton-acrylic blend was selected not only for comfort but also for practical everyday use. Its construction supports easier maintenance while helping the garment retain the characteristics that make it a dependable wardrobe piece.
- Wrinkle resistance: The blended knitted fabric is less prone to excessive creasing, supporting a neat appearance with minimal effort.
- Easy care: Designed as an easy-to-maintain, wash-and-wear knit for regular use.
- Longevity: Acrylic reinforces the cotton fibres and helps the garment maintain its structure through repeated wear.
- Colour retention: The blend supports lasting colour and appearance when cared for according to the garment instructions.
Styling Suggestions
Olive green brings subtle character without limiting how the polo can be worn. Its natural, muted tone works particularly well as a bridge between classic neutrals and more relaxed seasonal colours.
- Casual: Wear with cream or stone chinos and minimalist trainers for a clean, relaxed combination.
- Smart-casual: Pair with navy tailored trousers, a leather belt and loafers for a refined contrast.
- Layered: Combine beneath a navy jacket, beige overshirt or lightweight coat when temperatures cool.
