A true icon from the world's oldest manufacturing factory, the 'Dorset' polo shirt is a testament to John Smedley's 240-year legacy of knitting excellence. Crafted in England from the finest Extra Fine Merino Wool, this polo is a mod clothing staple and a symbol of enduring quality.
Its classic features; the fashion collar, three-button placket, and ribbed turnback cuffs, define a timeless silhouette, while its easy fit ensures versatile comfort for any occasion.
The ‘Dorset’ returns to Atom Retro in four literary-inspired colourways – Woolf Red, Keats Bronze, Kafka Beige, and Faulkner Brown – blending John Smedley’s centuries of heritage with a cultured tribute to literary greats.
