Body Type

How to find your body type: Wrap a thread around your waist and mark where the ends meet. Repeat around your navel (natural waist, not where your pants sit). Lay the thread against a scale and measure the difference between the two markings to determine your body type.


Chest Girth (in Inches)

We make our clothes to give a sharp tailored fit. Close to body at shoulder, sleeves and chest and slightly relaxed at waist. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, please select a size larger than your usual.

Description

The struggle of finding a polo that holds its form through the day, especially in India's varied climate, is real. This Kessler in Tarmac Haze, woven from substantial Supima, offers a distinct answer. It's the essential garment that moves with you, maintaining its composure from morning through evening.

- It settles neatly across the shoulders and chest, then drapes without clinging as the day progresses.
- The collar maintains its composure, staying crisp and structured through repeated wear, never wilting.
- The Supima fabric feels substantial against the skin, offering reassuring comfort without any sense of flimsiness.
- Your arms move with natural ease, the offset sleeves ensuring a clean silhouette without restriction.
- The double-folded hem provides a plush feel and keeps its form, preventing any unwelcome curling.

What this won't do:
This is not a lightweight, athletic-grade polo designed for intense exertion; its substantial Supima build is for considered comfort and lasting form. While 'Tarmac Haze' is versatile, it offers a grounded, understated presence, not a vibrant pop of colour.

It’s the kind of piece you reach for often, appreciating its quiet assurance in any discerning setting.

    The History of Polo

    The polo shirt originated in the early 20th century as practical sportswear for polo players in British India, featuring a soft collar and a placket. It was later famously re-imagined and popularized for tennis by French champion René Lacoste in the 1920s, who sought a more comfortable alternative to traditional tennis whites. This innovative design soon transitioned from athletic wear to a ubiquitous casual fashion staple.
