Men's polo shirt

Stand out! The men's polo shirt in all its forms

The men's polo shirt is an iconic piece of the male wardrobe. First associated with the practice of sport, little by little, it took over the wardrobes until it became an essential part of the moments of relaxation of any elegant man. Back to its origins for inspiration and glean some look ideas, in order to stand out in polo all year round.

At the roots of a chic and sporty style

Contrary to what one might think, this ancestral garment is not directly linked to the sport of the same name. It is indeed for the practice of tennis that the garment was created in the 1920s. At that time, players used to wear a shirt with rolled up sleeves, cumbersome and not very ergonomic. For questions of comfort and performance, this shirt changes over time under the impulse of the players: the sleeves and the button placket are shorter and the material changes, for a more resistant and airy piqué cotton. And the success is not long in coming: it becomes a reference item of clothing for athletes who want to maintain a certain elegance in their practice. Tennis players, rugby players and polo players in mind, this male garment became more popular in the 1950s in the United States, and attracted an increasingly large audience. Reserved at first for men of the upper classes, the garment attracted more and more young people from the 1960s onwards, and quickly became the chic and casual essential that we know today.

Although we gladly lend it a sporty or casual look, this clothing essential can be very chic in its classic version. Here are three ideas of unstoppable associations for a controlled look:

• Look idea 1: Plain model + rolled-up chinos + leather derbies A preppy chic look par excellence, this classic combination with a sleek top and well-cut chinos is to be adopted with your eyes closed.
• Look idea 2: Plain model + linen pants + loafers Ideal for summer, this look composed of a sober plain top, light linen pants and leather loafers gives you a look that is both elegant and relaxed. . For example, you can have a look that is both original and classy by wearing a men's pink polo shirt accompanied by light-colored linen pants. A model in blue or in a sky blue version also goes perfectly with linen pants. The elegant fall of the garment with the “relaxing” side of the linen will have the most beautiful effect.
• Look idea 3: Plain model + contrasting suit jacket + leather shoes Less common, the association of a plain model with a suit requires more experience, but turns out to be very sophisticated. However, be sure to place the collar of the garment correctly between the lapels of your jacket.

The trendy sport-chic top

Dressier than the t-shirt and more comfortable than the shirt, your top is now available in many patterns and colors.

However, favor sober pants and avoid ripped or too faded jeans, opt more for raw denim. The printed model will emphasize your bust and its collar will highlight your face. On the shoe side, opt for classic sneakers, avoiding colors that are too bright.
• Look idea 2: Colour-block model + Bermuda shorts + sneakers
  The barbarian color-block model or with contrasting stripes combined with plain Bermuda shorts and trainers for a summer look that is sure to be noticed.
