About

 

The COTTON PILE SKIPPER is an eminently mid-century Polo with an open buttonless placket, constructed of a luxuriously soft and detailed Terry Cloth, finished more elegantly than ubiquitous Terry Towelling.

The Skipper Collar and highly absorbent fabric are consistent with the nautical provenance of the piece and the open neck collar is more relaxed and assured than its buttoned counterpart.

The COTTON PILE SKIPPER is garment dyed and has an above elbow sleeve, single chest pocket and classic fit.

Popular from the late 30s to the 50s, the Skipper polo was employed as Resort Wear, but also for sports and recreation and would often be paired with a wide linen pant or shorts, tucked or untucked depending on the activity.
