"Polo is good, knit polo is better!" - that was the general message taken from the presentation of the Gran Sasso men's Spring/Summer 2019 collection at Pitti 94.
There are many combining factors that have made this garment successful over the years, but they can be summarised by two main points. First of all, the wearability: the knit polo shirt defines the shape as a piqué polo, but is as comfortable as a shirt. Secondly, it can be made of different yarns, heavy or light, such as wool, cashmere, linen and cotton, allowing the wearer to have a style-focused and versatile polo shirt, perfect to complete a range of outfits and suitable from Spring to Autumn.

A must-have staple part of a man's wardrobe, the knit polo first entered the fashion scene in the 1950s and stands out for its elegance and comfort - always showing off a refined and clean style. One signature element is the collar, which can be buttoned for a more elegant delivery or plain for a bolder aesthetic.

With true Amalfi Coast allure - think The Talented Mr. Ripley - the knit polo shirt can be combined with chinos, shorts and the summer season classic boat shoe. And for those with a penchant for the preppy look, the knit polo can also show off a vintage look capturing the essence of 1950s and 1960s New England.
