Product Insights

A 100% linen knit polo with a Johnny collar that offers the breathability and cooling of linen (wicks sweat, dries 30% faster than cotton, conducts heat away) alongside natural odor control from antibacterial waxes, allowing multiple wears between washes. Priced at $59.95 CAD—37% less than J.Crew's linen woven—it delivers a collar style found in $185+ polos. The tradeoff: it demands cold-water washing and flat drying to preserve its relaxed fit and collar drape, and its knit surface may pill under friction (manageable with a fabric shaver). Over time, the fabric softens and develops a unique patina that blends cannot match.

Verified claims

Value
Le 31's direct-to-retail model keeps this 100% linen knit at the low end of the category at regular price, and at sale pricing it undercuts J.Crew's woven linen baseline while offering a Johnny collar typical of $185+ polos.
Breathability
100% linen knit wicks sweat, dries 30% faster than cotton, and conducts body heat away.
Care
Requires cold wash and flat drying; pilling and rib distortion are manageable with care.
Cooling
100% linen knit wicks moisture and dries 30% faster than cotton, cooling the skin.
Odor control
Natural antibacterial waxes reduce sweat odor, enabling multiple wears without washing.
Pilling
Knit surface may pill under friction but can be managed with a fabric shaver.
Aging
100% linen knit softens and develops a patina that blends cannot match.
Washing
Cold water machine washing and flat drying preserves the relaxed fit and collar drape.
Softening
The linen knit softens and develops a more fluid drape after the first few washes.
Storage
Fold flat to prevent collar curling and shoulder stretching from hanging.
Collar structure
The Johnny collar has no wire or interfacing and is designed to lie flat against the chest.

100% Linen Knit Johnny Collar Polo: Choose this if you want a breathable warm-weather polo in 100% linen, made as a soft, lightweight knit with an open, buttonless Johnny collar and a shallow V-notch. It has a relaxed, slightly boxy fit that hangs away from the body, with short sleeves, ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem band, and comes in Ecru/Linen, Green, and Pink from Small to X-Large. Note the knit has a slightly slubby, natural texture, and the relaxed fit is assessed from how it appears on the model rather than as a guaranteed fit for every wearer.[1,2,3,4]Openwork Knit Johnny Collar Polo: Choose this if you want a lightweight, short-sleeve knit polo with a buttonless, open pointed Johnny collar and a textured vertical openwork-rib knit, made from 60% organic cotton and 40% TENCEL modal. It is a Le 31 exclusive designed in Canada and comes in Black, Ivory, Green, and Navy/Midnight Blue in sizes small through x-large, with a fitted look on the model. Note that in the saved listing some sizes were missing from certain colors: no x-large in Black and no small in Ivory or Green.[5,6,7]Pointelle-Pattern Knit Johnny Collar Polo: Choose this if you want a lightweight, cotton-blend (60% reprocessed cotton, 20% nylon, 20% viscose) knit polo with an open, pointed Johnny collar and buttonless V placket, finished with ribbed cuffs and hem. It comes in Black, Off White, Green, and Slate Blue, each in sizes X-Small through X-Large. Note that the pointelle openwork knit is semi-sheer, with skin slightly visible through the small holes, and care instructions indicate it should be folded rather than hung to retain its shape.[8,9,10,11]
