Short-Sleeved Polo

A polo's one of those things that almost everyone's got in his closet, but we think ours is kind of special. It's got a cut-and-sew collar supported by a collar band (just like a sport shirt, which means it can stand up under a jacket,) a tennis tail that can go tucked-in or not, and no branding except for a tiny SM at the lower left hem embroidered in green. This one's made from Peruvian pima pique that's airy and rugged at the same time. Pima's like the cashmere of cotton. It only gets softer — without pilling, without clinging — the more you wear it.
