What is a polo shirt?

A long-sleeve polo is a variant of the classic polo shirt, but instead of short sleeves, it has long sleeves. It shares the same design as the short-sleeve polo, with a collar and a button-up front. Long-sleeve polo shirts are often worn as a slightly more formal option compared to their short-sleeve counterparts and can be paired with a jacket or blazer to create a more polished look. They are a popular choice for casual attire throughout all seasons.

History of the polo shirt

The polo shirt, also known as a poloshirt or tennis shirt, has an interesting history dating back to the early 20th century. It was originally designed for use during polo matches, hence the name. In 1926, French tennis player René Lacoste introduced the first polo shirt to the market. Made from breathable cotton and featuring a collar that could be turned up to protect the neck from the sun, the shirt quickly gained popularity among tennis players and golf enthusiasts, becoming a symbol of sporty elegance and casual style. In the 1970s, the polo shirt also became associated with the preppy subculture and was often worn in combination with chinos, loafers, and a sweater draped over the shoulders. Today, the polo shirt remains a classic garment that is still widely worn in sporty, casual, and formal settings.

Specifications

Material

This exceptionally beautiful Polo from NØLSON is made from a knitted piqué fabric of 100% cotton, which ensures that the shirt feels soft and extremely comfortable on the skin. The fabric is also highly breathable, making it suitable to wear during warmer days or physical activities. Additionally, the fabric of the Polo is very easy to iron, making the shirt easy to maintain.

Fit

The Polo has a well-known NØLSON fit, making it a perfect fit and suitable to wear untucked for a more casual look. However, the shirt can also be combined with a jacket or blazer for more formal occasions, highlighting the versatility of the shirt. This makes the shirt suitable for an evening out as well as for the workplace.

Cuff

The Polo features a single cuff and 2 horizontally placed buttons, allowing you to adjust the cuff according to your preference. This ensures that the shirt remains comfortable throughout the day and does not fit too tightly around your wrist. The Polo is therefore suitable for various occasions and can be worn in a more casual manner as well as during formal events.

Variety

The Polo is available in different colors, allowing you to choose the color that best suits your style. Wear the polo how you like it.

Cutaway collar

The NØLSON shirt features a special cutaway collar. This collar allows you to wear a tie without it getting in the way. The collar is also slimmer than the standard collar, giving the shirt a contemporary look.

Benefits of the polo shirt

Perfect for Spring

The long-sleeve polo shirt is an excellent choice for spring because it is both comfortable and stylish. Spring weather can be quite changeable, making a long-sleeve shirt the perfect option to wear. The long sleeves provide sufficient protection against the cool morning and evening temperatures, while the breathable fabric still ensures adequate ventilation to prevent overheating.

Versatile

Furthermore, the long-sleeve polo shirt is a versatile garment that can be worn in various situations. It is suitable for both formal and informal occasions, depending on how it is combined with other clothing items. For example, it can be worn with jeans and sneakers for a casual look, or paired with chino pants and loafers for a more formal outfit.

Timeless Look

Another advantage of the long-sleeve polo shirt is that it has a classic and timeless look. It is a garment that never goes out of style and can easily be combined with other clothing items. This makes it a valuable addition to your wardrobe because it can be worn time and time again without looking outdated.

Wrinkle-Free

Additionally, the polo shirt is wrinkle-free and easy to maintain. Due to the special treatment of the fabric during the production process, the polo shirt remains crease-free, saving you time on ironing and making it less hassle to keep the shirt looking neat. This makes the wrinkle-free polo shirt ideal for people with limited time or simply those who dislike ironing but still want to look good. Furthermore, thanks to its wrinkle-free property, the polo shirt stays in good condition for longer, as the fabric is not damaged by ironing. Simply hang the polo shirt briefly or give it a shake, and you’ll be guaranteed to leave the house in a stylish manner.
All in all, the long-sleeve polo shirt is a perfect choice for spring due to its comfort, versatility, and timeless look. It is a garment suitable for various occasions and always looks stylish.
