Description

There is no slogan on this one. The whole design is the mark — the 89s seal, small on the left chest, and nothing else. It is the quietest thing we make, and probably the piece you will get the most wear out of.

Nobody in Las Vegas or Atlantic City is going to stop you in a t-shirt — American rooms gave that up years ago. What a collar is for is the hundred feet between the poker room and the steakhouse, the rooms abroad that still enforce one, and hour nine at the table. This settles all three, and you can keep wearing it the next morning without looking like you dressed for an occasion.

Thick pique cotton with a tone-on-tone placket, so the buttons disappear instead of announcing themselves. A ribbed collar that holds its shape rather than curling by the second wash. Side slits and a straight hem — it sits properly tucked or loose.

The spec, in full

  • 100% combed ring-spun cotton — Grey Melange is 85% cotton, 15% viscose, and we would rather say so
  • 6.2 oz/yd² (210 g/m²) — heavy for a polo, opaque, no cling
  • Classic fit, ribbed collar
  • Tone-on-tone three-button placket, spare button on the inside seam
  • Straight hem with side slits
  • Sizes S to 5XL
  • Blank sourced from Bangladesh

When a collar actually earns its place at an American table — and when nobody cares — is set out on the poker polo shirts page.

The detail

Cut and fit

How it is cut

RelaxedClassic

Classic fit
Cut straight rather than tapered. Sits properly tucked or loose.
Ribbed collar
Knitted separately and denser than the body. It is the part that decides whether a polo still looks right in year two.
Straight hem with side slits
Without the slits the hem rides up every time you lean forward.

Looking after it

  • Wash cold, inside out Pique holds its texture in cold water. Hot water is what flattens the knit.
  • Dry flat Hanging a wet polo by the shoulders is what stretches a collar out of shape.
  • Iron the collar on low if you must Never over the mark. Turn it inside out and press the collar alone.
