PLAY POLO RED EMBLEM (NAVY)

No one is brought up believing that they will be so concerned about a polo shirt. And there they discover the PLAY POLO RED EMBLEM (NAVY) and something changes.

Neither is it the most dramatic work in the room. It never wants to be. Instead, it does what is much more difficult to remove, it renders you stylish without seeking to demonstrate it. That is what CDG PLAY has been mastering at the dawn of time: that tension, effort vs. ease, classic vs. current. And in polo shape, it comes ashore.

The material is 100% cotton piqué – a weave that has secured its place in the history of fashion well deservedly. It breathes. It holds its structure. Becomes softer with each wash but never goes floppy. The collar is in the proper place, the short sleeves are in the proper place on the arm, and the two-button placket gives you something to do with the neckline, either pop it or leave it, both are all right. It is a shirt, which was created in Japan, and you can sense that accuracy in the manner in which every detail is placed at its right position.

A heart logo that is embroidered on the chest on the left. It has been on CDG PLAY pieces decades long and yet somehow it does not get old. It remains the correct size. Never out of place. Nevertheless, the thing that people see but cannot explain precisely why. It is good design – when it is so good that you cease to wonder about it.

Wear a pair of denim, with chinos, with shorts in a warm evening. Stuff it, keep it away, stuff a jacket on top in the fall. The PLAY POLO RED EMBLEM (NAVY) is not going to clash with your wardrobe. It will simply make the surroundings a bit more thoughtful.

FAQ

Is the CDG PLAY polo shirt worth the price?
This question has a version which is money-related and there is a version that is value-related. On the financial front – yes, it is more expensive than a regular polo. On the value end – this is 100% cotton piqué manufactured in Japan, embroidered in such a way that it lasts, fitted in such a way that it fits, and logo-ed in such a way that it has meant something in fashion over the past 20 years. After the first time they wear it, most of the individuals who purchase it cease to pose the question.

How does the sizing work on the CDG PLAY polo?
CDG PLAY is available in Japanese, thus appearing smaller than the majority of Western brands. In most labels, and are a medium, be big here. Between sizes, it is always better to size up, as it is straight and does not stretch out, which means that there is no way to recover once it is too small.

Can women wear the CDG PLAY polo?
Yes–and it is a wonderful success. The straight, loose fit is very flattering to the female body, particularly with a high-waisted pair of pants or a midi dress. Many women will downsize to achieve a more flattering appearance. Anyone who wishes to wear it can wear it.

Will this polo hold up over time?
Japanese made cotton piqué is not delicate. This shirt is made to last – the weave does not lose its feel, the embroidery does not fray and the collar does not lose its shape after many times being washed. The machine washes cold, lines dry, and it will look good years to come. Pieces of Comme des Garcons do not disintegrate. They become favourites.
