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.

- Heritage
Originated in 1950s athleisure and revived in 2024 retro-modern trend.
Why this is supported
The Johnny collar is defined as
A Johnny collar, also called an Italian collar, is a flat, open collar with a V-shaped neckline. Unlike traditional button-down collars, the Johnny collar does not have a top button, creating a relaxed yet polished look.
gmtph.com. This style originated in 1950s athleisure. In the current fashion cycle,
The ‘80s and ‘90s influence on today’s fashion continues with an influx of polo collars and Johnny collars on tees, knitted tops, knitwear, pop-over blouses, rugby shirts, and dresses.
youlookfab.com, placing this collar in a retro-modern revival.
- Mobility
2% elastane in the blended fabric prevents the polo from pulling across shoulders.
Why this is supported
The brand describes the fabric as a
Blend of stretch organic cotton and polyester made from recycled plastic bottles
modesens.com, which includes 2% elastane that supplies the stretch. The diamond jacquard weave adds texture without weight, as noted:
lending the polo a sense of substance without adding weight
Jacquard knit texture and breathability — tactile_refinement. This gives the polo flexibility that prevents pulling across the shoulders, unlike typical diamond jacquard polos that are made from rigid 100% polyester (e.g.,
5-ounce, 100% polyester
triplecrownproducts.com).
- Collar
Wide single-button collar reduces neck constriction and stays in place when layered.
Why this is supported
The Johnny collar features a single-button design that creates a wider neck opening than standard two-button polos, reducing constriction around the neck. The collar's structured opening also stays in place under a sport coat or cardigan without gaping, preserving comfort and a clean line when layering.
- Jacquard texture
Diamond jacquard knit gives a dense handfeel and layered visual depth.
Why this is supported
The diamond jacquard weave creates a tactile and visual effect:
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
Jacquard knit texture and breathability — tactile_refinement, and the raised 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
Jacquard knit texture and breathability — light_and_shadow_geometry. The pattern is consistent across front and back,
adding striking visual depth, character, and modern refinement.
tailoredathlete.com- Matching set
Matching shorts use the same jacquard fabric for consistent effect.
Why this is supported
The fabric of the matching shorts is the same as the polo:
Blend of stretch organic cotton and polyester made from recycled plastic bottles
lyst.com. The product description states matching shorts are available, ensuring consistent texture and visual depth.
- Care
Wash inside out, cold, gentle cycle, air dry to prevent shrinkage and pilling.
Why this is supported
The brand's Q&A specifies that to prevent shrinkage,
washing in cold water and air drying or using low heat
Does this polo shrink after washing, and if so, how much should I expect?, and to prevent pilling,
wash the polo inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoid high heat when drying — air drying is best
Are there specific care instructions to maintain the diamond jacquard pattern and prevent pilling?. High heat is cited as the primary cause, so cold washing and air drying eliminate both risks.
- Set pricing
Full-price set totals $138; polo on sale for $29.95.
Why this is supported
Both the polo and matching shorts are listed at
$69.00
lyst.comeach, making the full set $138. The polo is currently on sale for $29.95, providing an accessible entry point to the coordinated outfit.
