The collars are built to sit cleanly under jackets and knitwear, with careful reinforcement to stop them collapsing or rolling out at the points. Plackets are balanced so they lie flat against the chest, and buttons are chosen to match the overall tone of the garment rather than drawing unnecessary attention. The aim is quiet, versatile pieces that move easily between off-duty, travel and relaxed work settings.

What's the difference between mercerised cotton and merino wool-silk Gran Sasso polos?
Mercerised cotton has a soft sheen and smooth finish — cool, breathable, summer-suited. Merino wool-silk blends drape better and regulate temperature year-round — silk adds a subtle lustre, merino adds warmth and odour-resistance. Mercerised cotton polos sit at the lighter, everyday end of the range at OD's, with merino-silk blends at the premium end.
Does Gran Sasso make long sleeve polos?
Yes — Gran Sasso produces long sleeve polos in both knitted and woven constructions, often with 2-button placket or 1/4 zip closure. The Black Long Sleeve Zip Merino Wool Knitted Polo is a good place to start at OD's.
How does a Gran Sasso polo fit?
Gran Sasso polos run a Italian-cut — slightly trimmer through the body and shoulder than UK/US equivalents. If you're between sizes or prefer a roomier fit, take one size up. Call Helen on 01744 730985 for exact chest measurements before ordering.
