A sophisticated alternative to the traditional polo, this Gran Sasso long-sleeve knit is crafted in Italy from an exceptionally refined virgin wool and silk blend. Lightweight, smooth, and elegant, it combines the comfort of knitwear with the polished appearance of a fine-gauge shirt.
The fabric blends 70% virgin wool with 30% silk, giving the polo natural warmth, breathability, and a beautifully soft hand, while the silk adds subtle lustre and fluidity. Its ultrafine-gauge knit creates a sleek, lightweight texture that sits cleanly under tailoring without adding unnecessary bulk.
Finished in a versatile solid beige, the neutral tone makes this an especially easy piece to incorporate into a refined wardrobe. A classic three-button polo collar provides a relaxed yet sophisticated neckline, while ribbed detailing at the collar, cuffs, and hem gives the garment structure and a clean finish.
Designed to transition effortlessly between smart-casual and tailored dressing, this is an ideal layering piece for fall, winter, and transitional weather.

Styling Tip: Pair this beige wool-silk polo with charcoal or navy tailored trousers and brown suede loafers for an elegant business-casual look.
