Luca Faloni's polo knit is the ultimate autumn flex

Now we're in the throws of the cooler months it's time to update your wardrobe

Words: Zak Maoui

There's a garment that, when autumn swings about, we can't get enough of. The humble polo knit, worn by the likes of Jacob Elordi, Callum Turner and Donald Glover, is the secret weapon to effortless, versatile style. They offer more than a long-sleeved T-shirt, and are smarter than a simple knit. They're warm, but practical with a breathable button-down. And the best bit? You can wear one just about anywhere. Office, bar, lunch with the other half's family, job interview, trip to Whole Foods...you name it, you can wear a polo knit there.

For us, no one creates one better than Luca Faloni, the Italian label that specialises in well-made menswear that's free of trend obligations. Knitted in Bergamo, Northern Italy, from the finest two-ply cashmere, Faloni's knit polo offers both versatility and function. Weighing approximately 300 grams, this polo provides high-quality insulation, making it ideal for layering during the cooler months between September (now!) and March.

What's unique about the polo shirt is its fit. It has been intentionally designed to drape effortlessly on the body, working with your shape. It will gently adapt to your body, offering an elegant drape that ensures a modern, comfortable silhouette. Meanwhile, each button-up features Mother-of-pearl buttons.

So how do you style one out this autumn? Well, consider it the additional layer to any outfit you might've already pulled together to trial out this September. Being as versatile as it is, you can wear one over an Oxford shirt, a simple T-shirt or on its own and under a parka jacket. Look to the aforementioned Jacob Elordi, who has made it an ubiquitous part of his uniform, and wears his with effortless panache: with a pair of jeans.

Arriving in an array of colours, from Nocciola Brown to French Blue, Faloni's knit the weapon you need in your autumn rotation.
