Woolly Clothing CoMen's Merino Polo by Woolly | RWS Certified | Super Soft, Classic Style, Seattle Designed

I travel internationally and am amazed it has taken me this long to find these products. Wore this on an 11 hour flight and felt fresh and comfortable the whole flight. Never too warm or too cool.

Great shirt for $70.. Pretty much what it says on the box high quality merino rugby polo. Love them for work. For $90 I start to look at the competition

As others have mentioned, it is thinner than your average cotton polo. It's not so thin that you can see any skin through it and it's still fairly warm although I'm mostly wearing it in the 70 F degree range.I am worried that the are around the buttons might develop holes, but I'll have to see after a few washes.This is a slim cut, which works very well on my tall+thin body type.To the credit of Woolly Clothing, they emailed me right after I ordered to give care instructions. Mostly these are the typical wool care: cold wash, turn inside out, low heat or lay dry.

I purchased two of these polo's to replace my previous merino wool Icebreaker polo's that I've had to two summers. These woolly polo's seam to fit a bit better than the icebreaker ones due to the larger arm holes. I have been going to the gym regularly during lunch for about 6 months and my arm muscles have grown substantially, which is why I needed a new polo. The sleeve on my Icebreaker polo could no longer fit around my arm, it would always bind up under my armpit and not comfortably slide down over my arm. I initially purchased a size SMALL for these Woolly polo's but the arm was too small on these. So I returned them for a MEDIUM and they fit much better. I am 5'11, 170 lbs and with a very athletic fit. I typically wear size SMALL in other shirts and have two regular merino t-shirts from Woolly Clothing which are size SMALL and they fit great. The arms holes on the t-shirts are apparently larger than on these polo's. But I will sacrifice some extra clothing hanging loosely around my midriff for the increased size of the arm hole. They still fit rather slim, which is an absolute priority for me. I won't wear baggy clothes, I like them comfortably next to my skin, but with enough stretch and movement that I don't feel restricted. These polo's perform very well and look very business casual professional. I have washed them once in cold water and hung dry and as expected they didn't shrink or discolor or anything unusual. I hope to wear these nearly every day in the hot months of North Carolina for years to come. And if you've never owned a Merino wool shirt, they literally don't stink for weeks on end. I will wear this shirt maybe 15 times before I even consider washing it. I can wear it, put it back in my dresser, then pull it out again and wear it without batting an eye. Merino wool is a paradigm shift over cotton bc cotton stinks after one wear while merino can handle serious perspiration and come out without a stench. All my gym shirts/underwear/socks are merino and I can wear even them a FEW times (like 3-4 times in the same week!) if I just let them air dry. They DON'T STINK...but also, I don't stink that bad anyway so maybe this is anecdotal.

First, the good. I loved the fit, the look, how well they wore for multiple days - so far, 5 stars!But, after only two washings - in cold water, tumble-dry on low, no fabric softener, all as directed - one of the two shirts already got a pinhole in the middle of the front of the shirt! For a shirt that costs this much, completely unacceptable.I was going to give these shirts 2 stars, in fact, but I eventually raised it to 3 because the second shirt is still in good shape. But I cannot recommend these shirts overall, simply because of their poor durability.EDIT: July 2024: Down to ONE star. I bought a bunch of these, and now I’m down to ONE. ALL the rest got holes from normal laundering, always in cold water. Again, COMPLETELY unacceptable. And other brands’ merino shirts didn’t fare much better, which tells me this fabric is NOT the way to go for an “EVERYDAY” shirt. I’ll try Alpaca wool next, then give up.

I loved the fit and how comfortable the shirts were. Ended up buying five of them after the first. However, after just a few washes (in cold water on delicate wash cycle), three of them eventually developed holes in the material. For $70 a pop, they're not worth it when they only last a few washes.

Size is exactly right for a medium. It is longer and trim which I prefer. The fabric is very soft and light. If it was just slightly thicker fabric it would be perfect.

I'm so delighted to have a polo shirt. It is really ultra light, but also fine, delicate and very pleasant to touch. Although it is stretchable, it grasps my body so gently, adding to the comfort. I use it for work, in casual and smart casual occasions. It performs very well outdoors in high temperatures and humid conditions (I work on cruise ship) keeping my comfort in extreme situations (I tend to sweat a lot o higher temperatures and in action). Care should be taken when in proximity to sharp objects and materials.
