Product Insights
The Le 31 Diamond Jacquard Polo comfort fit revives 1950s athleisure in a 2024 retro-modern context with a diamond jacquard knit pattern and an open Johnny collar that reduces neck constriction. Its blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester with 2% elastane provides stretch that prevents pulling across shoulders, unlike the benchmark's all-polyester fabric. The polo is versatile—wear it untucked, layered, or with chinos or jeans—and pairs with matching shorts for a coordinated warm-weather outfit. Although regular priced at $69 CAD, the on-sale price of $29.95 undercuts the Port Authority jacquard polo's ~$33 all-virgin polyester offering, making it a value choice. Care requires washing inside out on cold gentle cycle and air drying to prevent shrinkage and pilling, a small tradeoff for the sustainable material and dense handfeel.

Deep Research
Value compared to similar jacquard polos
- The Diamond Jacquard Polo has a matching shorts SKU (20364-225553) listed in the product description, enabling a coordinated summer set without extra styling effort; finding a full jacquard co-ord at this price is unusual, so the Le 31 effectively functions as a two-piece outfit builder at $29.95 plus the shorts' cost—a styling value proposition for the warm-weather buyer.
- As a Simons-exclusive, the Le 31 Diamond Jacquard Polo bypasses third-party brand markups, explaining how a Canadian-designed polo with a distinctive diamond jacquard weave, open Johnny collar, and organic-recycled blend can retail for $29.95 CAD on sale; this direct-to-consumer model puts the garment in competition with fast-fashion pricing while retaining design intent.
- While the Port Authority Diamond Jacquard Polo is a static 100% polyester with no inherent stretch, the Le 31's organic cotton-recycled polyester blend is explicitly described as having stretch, which, combined with the comfort fit block, translates to a more forgiving and mobile polo for everyday wear—a notable advantage at the same sub-$35 CAD price tier.
- The Le 31 Diamond Jacquard Polo uses a stretch blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester, a combination rare at this price; the Port Authority Diamond Jacquard Polo—a common promotional-wear benchmark—is 100% polyester and priced at $24.65 USD (approx. $33 CAD) for single units, meaning the Le 31 delivers organic cotton content, recycled materials, and a lower final price to the Canadian buyer.
- The polyester component of the Le 31 blend is explicitly sourced from recycled plastic bottles, a sustainability differentiator at a price point where the nearest competitor, the Port Authority Diamond Jacquard Polo, lists only '100% polyester' with no recycled claim—so the Le 31 delivers an environmental story without the green premium typically tacked onto eco-friendly fashion.
How the comfort fit actually fits
- The organic cotton-recycled polyester blend includes stretch fiber that allows the polo to give with body movement; combined with the relaxed cut, this means the shirt doesn't pull across the shoulders during reach or twist motions.
- The open, pointed Johnny collar with a single button eliminates the tighter closure of a traditional two-button polo, creating a wider neck opening that contributes to the comfort fit's relaxed feel and works well with casual, untucked wear.
Johnny collar style and when to wear it
- Since 2024, Johnny collar polos have been central to a broad '80s/'90s revival across both luxury and contemporary fashion, appearing in knitwear and statement collars — wearing this diamond jacquard version places the buyer squarely in a trend that prizes retro-modern cross-pollination over fleeting novelty.
- Unlike the classic buttonless Johnny collar, this polo adds a single button — a small modern nod that keeps the open V-neck silhouette intact but introduces just enough closure to feel slightly more structured, making it easier to layer under a sport coat or cardigan without the collar gaping.
- Originating in 1950s athleisure, the Johnny collar is defined by its open V-neck and buttonless placket — a design that bridges casual and semi-formal, reading as polished yet relaxed, which makes this polo suitable for settings where a standard buttoned polo would feel too sporty.
- Johnny collar polos are a staple of resort and vintage-inspired dressing: paired with lightweight chinos and leather loafers they deliver a 'resort-ready' look, while with slim jeans and clean sneakers they create a polished weekend outfit that's a step up from a t-shirt.
Jacquard knit texture and breathability
- The diamond weave adds a physical texture you can feel — a subtle surface grid that gives the fabric a more engaging handfeel than the flat smoothness of jersey or the uniform nub of pique, lending the polo a sense of substance without adding weight.
- The raised diamond jacquard motif catches and scatters light, creating micro-shadows across the fabric — even a low-key color like Sand appears visually layered and textured rather than flat, making the shirt feel more considered and modern than a smooth-knit polo.
The matching shorts and how they pair
- The shorts carry the same full retail price as the polo ($69 CAD), so even at full price the complete set is a relatively accessible $138 — less than many single-designer pieces and a solid value for a cohesive, dressed-up warm-weather outfit.
- A 6-inch inseam places the shorts at mid-thigh, giving the set a balanced above-the-knee proportion that complements the polo's untucked comfort fit — it reads as modern and intentional without feeling like a statement piece.
- An elastic waistband with an adjustable drawstring eliminates the need for a belt while keeping the shorts secure — the polo's untucked comfort fit works without a tucked-in waistline, so the clean front of the shorts remains visible and unbroken by hardware.
- Both pieces use the same stretch organic cotton and recycled polyester blend, so the shorts drape and move with the same soft, breathable hand as the polo — there is no visual or textural mismatch between top and bottom, keeping the outfit looking premium even in motion.

Q&A
2 answered- Does this polo shrink after washing, and if so, how much should I expect?
- Yes, like most cotton-blend polos, this shirt may shrink if exposed to high heat during washing or drying. The polyester content helps reduce shrinkage compared to 100% cotton, but to minimize risk we recommend washing in cold water and air drying or using low heat [2][3].
- Are there specific care instructions to maintain the diamond jacquard pattern and prevent pilling?
- To preserve the diamond jacquard pattern and prevent pilling, wash the polo inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoid high heat when drying — air drying is best [2][3]. Using a mild detergent and not overloading the machine also helps protect the textured weave.
