Product Insights

The Retro Jacquard Polo from Le 31 offers a bold, all-over geometric jacquard pattern knitted into 100% recycled cotton, ensuring the design won't crack, peel, or fade, and providing a heathered, slubbed, three-dimensional texture reminiscent of a handcrafted sweater. Designed in Canada and exclusive to Simons, it undercuts rivals like Pretty Green Tenor and matches Madcap England Miles on price, while sourcing recycled cotton for sustainability. Buyers praise it for smart-casual versatility and frequent compliments, but note the torso runs short—untucked looks neat, but tucking requires sizing up. Cold wash at 30°C prevents shrinkage, and the construction is neat with rare loose strands, supporting longevity.

Verified claims

Jacquard construction
Pattern knitted directly into fabric (jacquard) won't crack, peel, or fade.

Origin
Designed in Canada and exclusive to Simons, unlike UK-based retro-jacquard rivals.
Design
Features an all-over geometric jacquard, unlike Madcap England's inset dash-stripe.
Texture
Recycled cotton jacquard: heathered, slubbed, three-dimensional texture.
Pattern
Jacquard pattern is knitted into the recycled cotton fabric, not printed on it.
Care
Wash cold at 30°C, spin at 600 RPM, and air-dry flat.
Use cases
Buyers describe it as a stylish summer polo and a well-received gift.
Tactile feel
Jacquard knit has a raised, slubbed texture giving a handcrafted sweater-like feel.

Knitted-in pattern won't peel or fade, and the reverse side reveals neat construction.
Aesthetic
Bold all-over geometric jacquard with heathered recycled-cotton texture.
Stitching finish
Construction is neat overall; one buyer noted a few loose strands.
Jacquard quality
Geometric pattern is knitted into the fabric, not printed, with a raised 3D texture and slubbed hand feel.

Uses

Dressing up smart-casual outfits

Per an analysis of customer reviews, this polo's jacquard pattern and structured knit pair well with chinos or dark denim for a polished yet relaxed look. The black-and-gold Art Deco skyscraper pattern reportedly stands out and draws frequent compliments for its retro elegance. Reviewers note the body runs short for an untucked silhouette, though taller wearers or those who like to tuck in may find it too short.[1]

A gift for fashion-forward guys

According to a review analysis, this polo's distinctive retro jacquard design and perceived quality make it a present that fashion-minded recipients tend to appreciate, whether for a birthday or the holidays. Some shoppers have reportedly chosen it as a gift for exactly this reason.[1]

Everyday polo for a durable rotation

A regular-wear polo made of 100% recycled cotton knit that the seller describes as ultra comfortable. Reviews analysis notes the heavy, quality fabric feels comfortable and holds its shape, with one reviewer reporting no shrinkage after washing — useful for building a polo rotation for frequent wear.[1]

Retro Jacquard Polo: Choose this if you want a statement piece for smart-casual outfits: it has a bold two-tone geometric jacquard pattern in black and tan that, per customer review analysis, earns frequent compliments, and a structured knit that pairs well with chinos or dark denim. It is made of 100% recycled (reprocessed) cotton in a heavy knit that reviewers report feels comfortable, holds its shape, and withstands washing without shrinking. Note that the body runs shorter than a typical polo, favoring an untucked, modern fit, so taller wearers or those who plan to tuck it in may want to size up.[1]Retro Stripe Polo: Choose this if you want a short-sleeve knit polo with a retro look: vertical navy and brown stripes on a cream base (the Patterned White colorway, also offered in Green), ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, and a three-button placket. The light knit is described by the merchant as ultra comfortable, and it is made of 65% viscose and 35% polyester in sizes Small through X-Large. Note that the relaxed, hip-length fit is assessed as shown on the model rather than a stated garment specification, and the stripes run shoulder to hem, continuing uninterrupted across the sleeves.[2,3,4]Geo Jacquard Knit Polo: Choose this if you want a soft, breathable cotton knit polo (100% reprocessed cotton) with a 3D-inspired repeating geometric jacquard pattern that reviewers say dresses up or down for office, business-casual, or warm-weather occasions. Note that it runs short, with the bottom band looking awkward on frames over 6 feet 2 inches, and the delicate knit requires handwashing or a gentle cycle rather than regular machine washing.[5]
