Menswear brands are defined by how well they interpret the classics.
The Polo shirt is one such item; with such a varied and well-documented history this perennial style has remained a cornerstone of men's wardrobes for well over 100 years.

Featuring a double-breasted six- or eight-button closure, an a-line shape finishing just...
