Product Insights
The Soris Cable-Knit Polo by Theory transforms the Aran Islands fisherman's cable-knit into a refined quiet-luxury piece: an opaque, smooth-interior, medium-weight 100% cotton knit that offers sweater-like insulation without bulk, but demands cold washing to avoid 3–10% length shrinkage and a regular fit to avoid constriction.
Verified claims
- Heritage
- The cable-knit pattern traces to Aran Islands fisherman sweaters symbolizing ropes and safety at sea.
- Construction
- 100% cotton cable-knit with alternating ribbing gives sweater-like weight, opaque look, and smooth interior.
- Wearability
- The cable-knit is opaque in light colors, smooth against skin, and medium-weight for layering.
- Care
- The 100% cotton knit can shrink 3–10% in length on an initial hot wash; cold wash and low heat recommended.
- Knit performance
- Full-body cable-knit provides sweater-weight insulation and prevents see-through.
- Design narrative
- Aran Islands-inspired cable-knit in cotton offers a refined, breathable quiet-luxury polo.
- Fit
- Regular fit with cable-knit limits stretch; sizing down risks a constricting feel.
- Alternating ribbing
- Full-body alternating ribbing creates a cable-like luxury texture at this price.
- Fabric weight
- Alternating ribbing keeps fabric opaque and gives it layering weight.
- Opacity
- Full cable-knit body ensures light colors stay opaque under tension.
- Smooth reverse
- Flat reverse of cable knit feels smooth against bare skin.
- Ribbed trim durability
- Ribbed collar and cuffs maintain a crisp, hug-the-neck stance
- Sizing
- Stick to your regular size; downsizing yields a boxy, constricting fit.
- Collar & cuffs
- Collar and cuffs hold shape with alternating flat and twisted ribbing.
- Luxury positioning
- Positioned in the same contemporary luxury segment as Vince and Rag & Bone.
- Knit quality
- 100% cotton cable-knit that resists pilling, holds shape, and feels smooth.
- Weight and versatility
- Medium-weight cable-knit works for layering or standalone in spring/fall.
- Under-jacket comfort
- Flat reverse feels smooth; ribbed trim stays crisp under jacket sleeves.
- Shrinkage
- Cold wash and low-heat drying prevent 3–10% length shrinkage.
