Product Insights
Exclusive to Simons' Le 31 program, this Rodd & Gunn polo offers mainline quality at half the cost (sale price $59.95), featuring a permanent basketweave jacquard pattern on pre-shrunk cotton with a three-button placket for a traditional upright collar. Its Original Fit can be sized down for a slimmer silhouette; styling suggests tucking when the occasion is dressy with belt loops, otherwise leaving untucked. The tonal logo is subtly stitched. However, to preserve the crisp pattern, the shirt requires cold gentle washing, flat drying, and no fabric softener—a tradeoff for durability. Currently out of stock, it is comparable to the Rosskeen but uses unmercerised cotton with two-way stretch.
Verified claims
- Exclusivity
- Exclusive to Simons' Le 31 program; unavailable from Rodd & Gunn directly.
- Sizing
- Brand size chart lists chest and back lengths by size (S: 107 cm / 72 cm; M: 112 cm / 74 cm; L: 117 cm / 76 cm; XL: 122 cm / 77 cm); Original Fit runs generous, so sizing down gives a controlled fit.
- Outfit styling
- Tuck when pants have belt loops and the occasion is dressy; otherwise untucked.
- Collar detail
- Three-button placket gives a more traditional, upright collar stance.
- Pattern permanence
- The basketweave pattern is knit into the fabric at yarn level, so it won't fade, crack, or pill off; the cotton is pre-washed to keep shrinkage minimal.
- Care
- Cold wash (30°C) gentle cycle, mesh bag, no softener, neutral detergent, vinegar rinse, flat dry, 600 RPM spin preserves pattern.
- Value
- At $59.95 CAD, this polo is an accessible entry to Rodd & Gunn's Original Fit block and pre-washed cotton construction, even though it uses unmercerised cotton rather than the Rosskeen's mercerised upgrade.
- Durability
- Jacquard pattern is permanent, requires 30°C wash and flat drying to stay crisp.
- Rosskeen comparison
- Same Original Fit and pre-wash as Rosskeen, but unmercerised cotton with two-way stretch.
- Placket design
- Three-button placket for a traditional tennis-shirt look, unlike Rosskeen's two-button.
- Logo subtlety
- Tonal logo uses matching thread and surface stitching, so it blends with the fabric and should not show through on lighter colors.
- Fabric construction
- The basketweave texture is knit, not woven: a jacquard knitting pattern creates a woven-like basketweave appearance.
- Breathability
- The open structure of the basketweave knit allows good airflow, so the polo is breathable and suitable for summer wear.
- Blazer compatibility
- The knit construction lets the polo slide under a navy or grey blazer without looking like a rumpled golf shirt, making it a suitable base for tailored smart-casual looks.

Compared within this brand.
| Basketweave-Textured Jacquard Polo: Choose this if you want an original-fit short-sleeve polo in dark navy with a distinctive raised basketweave jacquard texture throughout the body and sleeves. It is made of 100% mercerised cotton that the brand says offers a premium finish, elevated softness, and four-way stretch comfort, with a pointed knit collar, three-button placket, small tone-on-tone embroidered chest logo, and a straight hem with small side vents. The relaxed, straight silhouette (as seen worn on the model) suits those who prefer a less tapered look.[1,2,3,4] | Embroidered Logo Piqué Polo: Choose this if you want a sports-fit, short-sleeve polo in a 100% cotton piqué knit the retailer describes as very comfortable, with an embroidered logo on the left chest, a two-button collar, and finely ribbed edging at the cuffs. It comes in White, Indigo/Dark Blue, Teal, Pink, and Orange across sizes Small to XX-Large, and features a straight hem with a small side vent. Note that the relaxed drape and hem placement shown are observed on one model in an unstated size, so fit may vary.[5,6] | Linen Knit Johnny-Collar Sweater: Choose this if you want a lightweight, breathable short-sleeve knit in a 50% linen, 50% cotton blend, with an open pointed Johnny collar, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a relaxed, slightly loose fit through the torso. It comes in a light heathered blue with a subtle marled, slub-like texture, and is listed in sizes small through x-large. Note that the relaxed fit shown is as worn on the model, so the drape may vary on other wearers.[7,8,9] |
