Product Insights
The Rodd & Gunn Embroidered Logo Piqué Polo ($85) is a durable, breathable polo rooted in the brand’s 1946 logo heritage—the founder’s English Pointer—with a piqué knit offering the highest air permeability among common summer fabrics and pre-washed, textured 100% cotton that minimizes shrinkage and skin contact. Its athletic cut, drawing from the brand’s role as All Blacks and Olympic outfitter, is slimmer and shorter-sleeved than the Original Fit, creating a tradeoff where sizing up yields a relaxed fit. The two-year guarantee, along with a 4.7-star rating from over 2,000 buyers, confirms durability, while cold wash and air dry preserve the logo and fabric.
Verified claims
- Logo heritage
- Logo originates from founder's pet English Pointer stitched on shirts in 1946.
- Logo care
- Cold water under 30°C and air drying flat preserve the embroidered logo; turning the polo inside out before washing further reduces snagging.
- Breathability
- Piqué knit has higher air permeability than jersey or interlock.
- Fit comparison
- Slimmer through the chest, shoulders, and waist, with shorter sleeves, than the Original Fit.
- Material
- 100% cotton piqué, prewashed to shrink minimally and textured for less skin contact.
- Design heritage
- Rodd & Gunn has dressed the All Blacks and outfitted the New Zealand Olympic team.
- Shrinkage
- Pre-washed to minimize shrinkage; cold wash and low heat drying preserve fit.
- Pilling
- Piqué resists pilling; gentle wash and separate from heavy items prevent fuzz.
- Durability
- Two-year guarantee and 4.7-star rating from 2,000+ buyers confirm durability.
- Brand heritage
- Rodd & Gunn operates over 240 stores globally and its logo traces to founder's 1946 pointer dog.
- Two-year guarantee
- Every Rodd & Gunn garment is backed by a two-year guarantee.
- Moisture handling
- The 100% cotton piqué absorbs perspiration and disperses it across the textured surface, so the polo dries noticeably faster than a flat cotton jersey.
- Non-cling feel
- The piqué texture contacts skin only at the raised honeycomb peaks, so the polo doesn't plaster itself to the torso when you sweat and air circulates over most of the skin.
- Cooling mechanism
- The waffle weave holds a network of micro air cells against the body that continuously displace warm humid air and pull in cooler air, so the polo feels cooler than a smooth cotton knit even when standing still.

| Embroidered Logo Piqué Polo: Choose this if you want a classic short-sleeve polo with a sports fit, two-button collar, and a subtle embroidered chest logo, made from a very comfortable 100% cotton piqué knit with a fine raised texture. It comes in five colours (White, Indigo/Dark Blue, Teal, Pink, and Orange) across sizes SMALL to XX-LARGE, with narrow ribbed cuffs and a straight hem with a small side vent. Note that while it is styled as a sports fit, one model photo shows a relaxed fit with the straight hem falling over the hips, so sizing may not feel trim on everyone.[1,2,3] | Basketweave-Textured Jacquard Polo: Choose this if you want a textured take on the classic polo: a dark navy, short-sleeve shirt in 100% mercerised cotton jersey with a raised basketweave jacquard pattern, a pointed knit collar, and a small tone-on-tone embroidered logo on the left chest. The brand describes the mercerised cotton as delivering a premium finish and elevated softness, and the four-way stretch fabric as offering extra comfort. It comes in an original fit with a relaxed, straight silhouette, straight-hemmed sleeves that end above the elbow, a straight hem with small side vents, and sizes from small to X-large; note the brand's own description cites a two-button placket while the listing and product photos show a three-button placket.[4,5,6,7,8] | Linen Knit Johnny-Collar Sweater: Choose this if you want a short-sleeve pullover for warmer weather, made from a breathable 50% linen, 50% cotton blend in a lightweight knit with a heathered look. It suits shoppers who prefer a relaxed, slightly loose fit with an open, pointed Johnny collar that lies flat, ribbed cuffs and hem band, and a light heathered blue color. Note that the relaxed fit is assessed on the model as worn, so the cut may differ on other wearers.[9,10,11,12] |
