What fabric are Paul Smith polo shirts made from?

Paul Smith polo shirts are primarily made from Pima cotton or cotton-piqué. Pima cotton offers a slightly finer, smoother hand-feel; piqué provides the classic textured polo surface with good breathability. Both fabrics are used at a weight and weave quality that reflects the brand's premium positioning — noticeably different from standard high-street polo construction in terms of drape and durability.

How do Paul Smith polo shirts fit?

Paul Smith polo shirts follow European sizing with a slim-athletic cut — fitted through the chest and shoulders with a body length that works tucked or untucked. They run true to European size. A size Medium typically suits a 38–40 inch chest. If you prefer a slightly roomier fit or are between sizes, sizing up one step is recommended, as Paul Smith runs on the slimmer side of its stated sizing.

How should I wash Paul Smith polo shirts?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle or cotton cycle and reshape while damp. Tumble dry on a low setting or line dry — avoid high heat which can cause piqué fabric to lose its texture over time. If ironing, use a medium heat and avoid pressing directly over any embroidered or printed logo detail. Turn inside-out to protect any Signature Stripe cuff detailing.

Do Paul Smith polo shirts have the Signature Stripe?

Many Paul Smith polo styles feature the Signature Stripe as a detail — typically at the cuff edge, collar tip or as an interior label detail. It is not always a full-fabric stripe; often it appears as a single-line accent that signals Paul Smith construction without dominating the garment. Some styles in the range are entirely plain apart from a small embroidered PS or Paul Smith wordmark.

What's Paul Smith's signature detail on polo shirts?

The multi-coloured stripe ("Signature Stripe") inside the placket or on the underside of the collar, plus the zebra embroidered logo on the chest of most styles. Paul Smith polos can be plain on the outside with the stripe revealed when the collar pops.

How does Paul Smith polo shirt sizing run?

Paul Smith polos run true to size with a slim European fit — narrower shoulders and tapered through chest and waist compared to British high street sizing. Size up if between sizes or for a relaxed fit.
