I get off the subway and walk around town for five minutes. But even though that’s all I did, my body was sweating and my clothes were sticking to my back. That uncomfortable feeling that repeats itself every summer. I can’t afford to worry about fashion. But what if there was a piece of clothing that would feel good on the skin, look clean, and still look stylish?
Appeal of Washi Knit Polo 1Because it does not cling to the skin, it is comfortable to wear even in the sweaty season.
Cotton, linen, and polyester are the most common summer materials. In recent years, however, “washi” has been slowly gaining attention as a new candidate for surviving Japan’s hot and humid summers. Also known as “Japanese linen,” this natural fiber is dry to the touch and lightweight. It is also highly absorbent, quick-drying, and breathable. Another appeal of washi is that it is wrinkle resistant, something linen does not do well.
However, what makes this knit polo superior is not only the use of Japanese paper. By placing cotton on the surface and Washi on the surface that touches the skin, it is designed to draw out the function of Washi firmly while keeping a basic appearance. In addition, the striped uneven knitted fabric minimizes the surface that touches the skin. The function of washi paper and the uneven structure. The synergistic effect of these two elements has realized a super-dry touch that eliminates the feeling of stickiness and dampness caused by perspiration.

Appeal of Washi Knit Polo 2High ability to keep a clean look, so it can be used from holiday wear to office casual wear
For adult men, cleanliness is essential. Not to mention that the sight of sweaty clothes stuck to the skin is a far cry from a clean look. And sweat stains are a nuisance in summer clothing. The stains that spread under your armpits the moment you grab the train’s strap. The marks on your back that remain after you drop your backpack. Even if you can stand the heat itself, it is another matter to cause discomfort to those around you due to sweat stains. This washi knit polo is designed to keep a clean appearance.

Washi fibers quickly absorb and diffuse perspiration, and the uneven structure of the knitted fabric prevents color differences on the surface. In addition, the fabric itself is elastic, so it does not wrinkle easily even when moving. The clean appearance lasts all day long without any special care.

Appeal of Washi Knit Polo 3A modern silhouette and sophisticated specifications allow you to create a stylish basic style as you wish
Polo shirts can give the impression of being too sporty. This is because polo shirts have their origins in sportswear such as golf and tennis. Many people may feel that polo shirts are too light for adult business scenes or slightly formal dining out, let alone for holidays.
What makes this Washi knit polo different is that it starts with the design of the silhouette. The body width is roomy enough to fit an inner T-shirt, while the sleeves are slim fit along the arms. The sleeves are slim-fitting along the arms, avoiding the tightness that tends to occur with tight-fitting polos, while creating a robust appearance around the arms. The ribbed hem allows you to fine-tune the length, so you can enjoy layering with a T-shirt slightly peeking out.

However, the attention to detail distinguishes this item from those that lack individuality. Stylish coordination begins with the selection of such a piece.
