Product Insights
The Semi-Plain Knit Piqué Polo by Le 31 is a house-brand garment that bypasses wholesale markup, offering organic cotton and heritage-inspired striped edging at 59 CAD — roughly 30% less than comparable eco-brands. Its piqué weave provides breathability, wrinkle resistance, and a two-tone pattern that masks minor spills and wear, while the cotton-poly blend minimizes shrinkage in cold water. The main tradeoff is that warm washing may cause 2-4% shrinkage and online colors may not perfectly match the product.
