Design

Iki is the Japanese word for a quiet kind of style: nothing loud, everything considered. This polo has one button and then stops. The collar sits soft and flat, the placket falls open into a deep V, and the knit does the rest. It is a sweater that wears like a shirt.

Iki Half-Placket Knit Polo details

Description

A knit that keeps its shape

The Iki is knitted thick in a piqué stitch, a small honeycomb texture that gives the surface depth and makes the fabric tougher than a flat jersey. It holds its shape with long wear. The yarn is brushed to a soft, velvet-like hand, warm for autumn and comfortable against the skin.

One button, then open

The collar is knitted, soft and flat, with pointed turned-down points. Below it a narrow placket falls into a deep V, closed by one small domed button in a horn look and left open from there.

The cut

  • Relaxed and boxy, with a dropped shoulder
  • Straight body to a fine ribbed hem at the hip
  • Full sleeves that gather softly above narrow ribbed cuffs
  • Slight stretch in the knit

What it is

The Iki Half-Placket Knit Polo is a long-sleeve knit polo for men: a thick piqué knit with a polo collar, an open V placket and a single button. It sits between a sweater and a shirt, warm like the first and collared like the second.

Which size to pick

The cut is relaxed and boxy, so most people take their usual size. On our 180cm, 70kg fit model the fit is close. If you want the looser drape shown in the photos, go one size up. Sizes run XS (US) S (JP) to 2XL (US) 3XL (JP).

The knit

  • Thick piqué knit with a honeycomb texture
  • Soft, brushed, velvet-like hand
  • Warm, and still breathes
  • Keeps its shape with long wear
  • Slight stretch

How it compares

A cotton polo shirt is lighter and flatter, made for summer. The Iki keeps the collar and placket but adds the weight and warmth of a sweater, so it covers autumn on its own and layers under a jacket when it turns cold.

Who it is not for

If you want a fitted polo that tucks in neatly, this is not it. The Iki is cut loose and meant to be worn untucked.

Care

Machine wash or hand wash.

Colours

Dark Grey, a charcoal with a slight heather, and Cream.

Answers

Questions, answered

Does the Iki knit polo run small?

It is cut relaxed and boxy, with dropped shoulders and a straight body, so most people take their usual size. On our 180cm, 70kg fit model the fit is close, so size up if you want the looser look in the photos.

Is it a sweater or a shirt?

Both, in practice. It is knitted and thick like a sweater, with a polo collar and a half placket like a shirt. Wear it alone or over a T-shirt.

Is it warm enough for autumn?

Yes. The knit is thick and made for autumn warmth, and it still breathes, so it does not overheat indoors.

Does the knit feel itchy?

No. The yarn has a soft, brushed, velvet-like hand and is comfortable worn straight against the skin.

How do I wash it?

Machine wash or hand wash. The textured knit is made to keep its shape with long wear.

How do I wear the Iki?

Over straight trousers or wide pants, with the placket open. It is smart enough for an office that allows knitwear and relaxed enough for a weekend.
