Product Insights
The Lindbergh Striped-Trim Piqué Polo, priced at 59 CAD and in stock, is a traditional-styled three-button placket polo with contrasting trim designed for layering under a blazer. The piqué knit provides 20-30% better breathability than flat jersey, absorbs and hides sweat, and retains its shape after repeated washing. However, it runs small; sizing up is necessary for the advertised relaxed fit. Maintenance requires inside-out washing at 30°C with cold rinse and air drying to preserve the trim's crispness, as tumble drying above 40°C can cause 1–3% shrinkage.
