A throwback to one of Sid's favorite shirts from 1998 in our trimmer Court shape. His daughters don't tie-dye these by hand anymore, but each piece still has the same easy naïveté of a made-with-love one-off. Just one color keeps it simple — more 'swimming pool blue' than jam band — and easier to pull off than you think. The Court has a shorter two-button placket, no front pocket, shorter banded sleeves, and a shorter body length with a tennis tail that looks great worn untucked. The collar is knitted, but still supported by a collar band just like a sport shirt… which means it can stand up under a jacket just as beautifully as the original. It's made from Peruvian pima pique that's airy and rugged at the same time. Pima's like the cashmere of cotton. It only gets softer — without pilling, without clinging — the more you wear it.
“Hey Sid! I wear a polo almost every day and have recently gotten into your Court style, but still have some of your original, looser fit polos from back in the day. How should I be wearing each so they look intentional and not interchangeable? Or are they interchangeable and just a matter of fit preference? Are there different occasions where one works better than the other?”
