The Best Knitted Polo Shirts for Men in the UK: Our Edit, From £39

The best knitted polo shirt is the one that matches how you actually dress — and the honest place to start is what each style in the range does best. This is our edit of our own knitted polo shirts: five picks from £39 to £89, every price the live price today.

The five picks

For fine knit: the Fitzrovia — £39. A fine, smooth knit and the smartest starting point in the range: the one that works under a blazer and with tailored trousers.

For a button-through: the Lambeth — £49. It fastens down the front like a shirt and wears like a lightweight cardigan — the most versatile collar in the range.

For a zip collar: the Avebury — £69. The modern option: a clean zip neck, no placket, nothing to button.

For merino wool: the Devizes — £69. A long-sleeve merino knit that wears in place of a light jumper from autumn into spring.

Top of the range: the Wells — £89. The luxe long-sleeve polo, and the ceiling of the range.

Zip and buttonless styles

Two of the most-asked questions in this range are about zips and buttons — or the lack of them. If you want a zipped polo shirt, the Avebury (£69) is the one. If you want a buttonless polo, the Belsize (£71) has a johnny collar that sits open at the neck with no buttons at all. And if you want every button there is, the Lambeth (£49) buttons through from collar to hem.

Also in the range

The Mayfair waffle knit (£39) for texture; the Belgravia textured stripe (£46); the Regent tipped (£52); the Aldwych three-button and Richmond long sleeve (£59 each); the Bradford worsted wool (£69); and the Burford cable knit (£79).
