How to choose your summer Polo shirt?

The hot weather has appeared across the country, so now is the time to adapt your wardrobe accordingly. The essential piece of men's wardrobe during the summer is without a doubtshort-sleeved polo shirt. At Vicomte A. the latter is our flagship piece, so we offer you little tips for choosing yourpolo shirt for menof this summer. 

How to choose the cut of your polo shirt?

First of all, in order to obtain a perfect fit, the sleeves of a polo shirt must necessarily be halfway between the shoulders and the elbows. 

Additionally, to make sure it fits properly, you need to be able to fit your fingers between the fabric of the polo sleeve and the arm. 

Otherwise, it means that your polo shirt is not your size. 

Which collar should you choose for your polo shirt?

The collar of the polo shirt must be sufficiently rigid and thick to obtain a beautiful curve which will harmonize the line of your shoulders. Little tip: pinch the collar by pulling lightly on the top. If you feel some resistance then the collar meets the criteria. 

The polo shirts that we produce at Vicomte A. have a ribbed collar with a 2-button placket to obtain a stiff and thick finish. 

Which knit to choose?

The pique knit is strong and breathable. A good pique polo shirt can be worn for many years since it resists multiple washes! 

At Vicomte A. that’s what we prefer! Our polo shirts are flexible and breathable for a summer protected from the heat. Our classicPablo polo shirtis ideal for this summer. 

What material ?

Cotton is the most common material these days when designing polo shirts. For what ? Cotton is one of the most resistant materials thanks to its fibers and which has a great capacity to wick away moisture. 

Cotton is therefore the most suitable material. At Vicomte A. we favorpima cotton. This cotton is also called “South American silk” since it is a very fine cotton and has silky fibers. 

This cotton is one of the best cottons in the world. When woven, Pima cotton brings surprising softness and elasticity to the garment. This cotton makes the polo very pleasant to wear every day. 

In order to taste this sweetness, we offer you ourPerry Polo Shirtswhich are 100% Pima cotton. You will find them in many colors to brighten up your wardrobe.
