Product Insights
Le 31's Striped Pointelle Knit Shirt is a smart-casual top designed in Canada, made from 100% reprocessed cotton with a soft, slubbed texture. Its knit-in vertical stripes ensure pattern durability and reduce the sheer contrast of the pointelle openwork, making sheerness intentional rather than accidental. The pointelle knit provides natural airflow, making it cooler than closed-weave cotton, and offers natural stretch without elastane. Priced at $69.95 sale (undercutting similar sustainable knits by ~30%), the shirt has a classic fit that accommodates layering over a base layer. However, it requires gentle care (cold wash inside out, lay flat to dry) to prevent pilling and maintain shape, and it is deliberately sheer, designed for layering rather than standalone wear.

Layering piece worn open over a tank

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Striped Pointelle Knit Shirt: Choose this if you want a lightweight, open-knit short-sleeve layer: it is a pointelle knit with visible eyelet texture, vertical contrasting stripes, a camp collar, full-length buttons, and a relaxed fit that falls to the upper hip on the model, made from ultra-comfortable 100% recycled cotton. It works well worn buttoned or open over a tank, with short sleeves ending above the elbow and stripes running continuously from yoke to hem. Note that the saved listing's variant data shows Patterned Blue only in X-LARGE and XX-LARGE, while most other colourways are listed from SMALL through XX-LARGE.[1,2,3,4] | Pointelle Stripe Polo: Choose this if you want a lightweight short-sleeve knit polo with a textured pointelle openwork stripe pattern, made from 100% recycled cotton and designed in Canada. It suits relaxed styling thanks to its open pointed Johnny collar with a shallow V-placket, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a relaxed, straight torso fit that ends near the waist as shown on the model. Note that the open knit appears slightly sheer in images, and it comes in sizes medium to x-large across Off White, Green, Blue, and Fuchsia colorways.[5,6] | Vertical Stripe Knit Polo: Choose this if you want a light, ultra-comfortable knit short-sleeve polo in a viscose-polyester blend (65% viscose, 35% polyester), with a flat narrow collar, ribbed cuffs and hem, and a straight hem that sits at the waist. It fits closely across the shoulders while staying relaxed through the body, with a smooth-knit torso and more textured sleeves, and comes in Black, White, and Patterned Brown in sizes SMALL through X-LARGE. Note that the Patterned Brown color skips the MEDIUM size, so pick Black or White if that size is what you need.[7,8,9] |
