Mens Superfine Merino Silk Buttonless Polo Shirt

Short Sleeve Wool Silk Open Collar Sweater

Our Leonardo buttonless polo shirt is made using Papi Fabio's (Est. 1890) Italian spun 70% ultra-fine merino wool and 30% silk blended yarn. Leonardo (lion-hearted) is an elegant open-collar shirt with French shoulder and tubular finish at its cuff and hem.

The lightweight, crease-resistant fabric makes this polo shirt practical for long days at the office or travelling, while the quiet luxury of the silk blend yarn's lustre creates an elevated wardrobe staple. This yarn is soft with an incredible drape and has been rigorously tested to ensure it delivers outstanding durability, softness, strength and versatility in all temperatures.

The benefits of merino silk knitwear

The long fibre length of silk gives this merino blend a smooth, luxurious finish which feels soft and comfortable and adds to the fabric’s strength. It is also breathable and naturally water-repellent, with the ability to wick moisture away from your skin, leaving you cool and dry.

Wash care

To minimise washing, gently steam and air your knitwear after wearing
Use a pilling comb to keep this item looking neat
Cool hand wash with similar colours, 30°C max
Do not twist or wring to remove excess water, reshape whilst damp
We recommend drying this item flat
Store folded, hanging this knit will cause it to lose its shape
Wear regularly to deter moths
