Product Insights
PS Paul Smith's Colourful Zebra Logo Knit Polo Shirt ($275) offers a premium, playful take on a classic silhouette, leveraging the brand's signature multicolor zebra logo—born from a 2006-2007 artist collaboration—to deliver a 'classic with a twist' aesthetic. Crafted from 100% organic cotton knit, it provides breathability, natural elasticity, and a softness that improves with proper care (cold wash, air dry, no fabric softener). The regular fit suits most, though sizing down achieves a trimmer look. The tradeoff: this distinctive, artist-driven piece requires delicate maintenance to preserve its tactile embroidered logo and sustainable fabric, positioning it as a mid-tier alternative to Hugo Boss and Ralph Lauren within Paul Smith's lineup.
Verified claims
- Brand position
- At $275 CAD, this knit polo competes with Hugo Boss and Ralph Lauren while being mid-tier within Paul Smith.
- Logo heritage
- The zebra logo, born from a 2006–2007 artist collaboration, embodies Paul Smith's 'classic with a twist' ethos.
- Knit quality
- Made from 100% organic cotton, this knit polo breathes, softens over time, and has natural elasticity unlike piqué.
- Fit
- The regular fit is relaxed through the body; buyers between sizes can size down for a trimmer look without binding.
- Logo design
- Zebra logo designed in 2006-2007, with multicolor stripes trademarked since 2002.
- Craftsmanship
- Zebra patch is embroidered onto organic cotton knit for a tactile finish.
- Brand identity
- Zebra logo marks the PS Paul Smith line with a playful, artistic character.
- Sizing
- 38-inch chest fits size Medium.
- Knit feel
- Knitted construction gives a soft, stretchy drape and sweater-like hand.
- Breathability
- Breathable organic cotton knit keeps you cool and comfortable in warm weather.
- Washing
- Wash inside out in cold water on delicate cycle.
- Drying
- Air dry the polo flat, or use a dryer's lowest heat and remove it while damp; high-heat tumble drying is the main risk for shrinkage and distortion of the ribbed collar and hem.
- Fabric softener
- Avoid fabric softener; use white vinegar in the rinse instead.
- Softening
- The organic cotton's uncoated fibers become softer with each wash, so the polo's comfort improves over time.
- Colour name
- The available colour specification for this polo is only 'Green'; no specific shade name such as olive or forest is provided.
- First-wash shrinkage
- This untreated organic cotton knit can lose 3–5% of its dimensions on the first wash, but cold-water washing and air drying keeps that loss below 1–2%.
- Ribbed trim
- The ribbed three-button placket, collar, cuffs, and hem provide inherent stretch recovery and structure, helping the placket sit flat and the cuffs retain their grip after repeated wear.
