The Long-Sleeve Merino Polo is The Ultimate Layering Piece

The Long-Sleeve Merino Polo is The Ultimate Layering Piece

In Albert’s capsule, we wanted to keep his wardrobe professional and neutral, but with just the right pop of color—and this long-sleeve merino polo does exactly that. It’s buttery soft, feels incredibly luxurious, and comes in versatile shades like navy, cream, and gray—or standout hues like cobalt, amber, and terracotta. 

It's made with top-notch merino wool that keeps you comfortable all year round and blends seamlessly into both casual and more formal looks. This polo shirt is the ultimate layer.


The Softest Polo: Lightweight & Breathable

When we think of the best mens polos, we often imagine shortsleeves for summer. But, our long sleeve merino wool polo is a piece that you can wear comfortably all year round. That’s what makes this polo such a standout piece. Its ability to keep you cool in warmer weather and warm in cooler temperatures is thanks to the natural properties of merino wool. It’s a 4-season polo that blends seamlessly into your wardrobe. 

While wool is sometimes associated with being itchy and uncomfortable, our polo shirt is made from 100% Italian merino wool, making it feel very light and soft against your skin. This high-quality fabric is all about that cozy feel.

Because it’s wrinkle-resistant, this shirt is also ideal for travel. You can pack it in your bag, throw it on, and still look sharp without worrying about finding an iron. It’s also a moisture-wicking fabric so you’ll stay comfortable, whether you're layering it under a suit or wearing it on its own.

The Perfect Layering Piece

The beauty of a high-quality mens polo like this one is how effortlessly it transitions from one setting to another. Office dress codes have become much more casual, and a polo shirt is a great alternative to a traditional button-down. It gives you just enough structure to keep you looking polished, without the formality of a dress shirt.

It’s also the perfect layering piece. Pair it with a tweed jacket—like Albert does in his capsule wardrobe—for a business casual look. The subtle flecks of color in his tweed jacket are picked up by a punch of color from his shirt underneath. It’s all about balance, and this polo is a great contrast to more neutral pieces in your wardrobe.

High Quality Fabric = Longevity

This isn’t just another polo shirt. The merino wool used for this piece comes from Italy, where craftsmanship and attention to detail are paramount. The fabric itself is designed to drape beautifully, with a fit that flatters you without clinging. And because it’s long-sleeve, it offers a little more coverage and warmth—without compromising on style.

The long-sleeve design is perfect for those cooler months when short sleeves just don’t cut it, but you still want the casual feel of a polo. Throw it under a jacket for an elevated look, or pair it with jeans for something more laid-back.

An Essential Shirt for Your Closet 

When you’re sticking to a slightly more professional color palette, don’t forget to add some color where appropriate to elevate your look. That’s where this polo really shines. Whether you're layering it under a tweed jacket or wearing it solo, it brings just the right amount of personality to an otherwise classic outfit. 

One 5-star reviewer on TrustPilot noted how quickly his knitwear arrived—“impressive since I don’t think they knit them until they’re ordered. That’s pretty impressive customer service.”

Not only is it the softest polo shirt you'll own, but it's also the most versatile. Another reviewer shared that “AOS helps educate about fabrics, and pieces that will fit your lifestyle [and] elevate your wardrobe,” which he found to be an “awesome experience.”
