Golden Fleece Original Fit Pique Polo Shirt
About Brooks Brothers’s polos: Brooks Brothers anchors its polo range in Supima cotton pique, topped by the Golden Fleece line with the sheep-and-ribbon chest logo. List prices are premium, but semi-annual sales routinely cut them by 25 to 60 percent.

Our take
The Golden Fleece polo is Brooks Brothers' signature pique polo, with the sheep-and-ribbon logo embroidered at the chest and a choice of Original or Slim fit. The brand knits it from ultrafine 2-ply Supima cotton with a little spandex, then applies a performance finish against shrinking, fading, and pilling. Owners like the soft hand and the conservative, office-friendly cut. Caveats: the list price is high for a cotton polo, discounts are constant, and long-time customers call current production good rather than exceptional.

The details
- Material
- A pique knit of 97% cotton and 3% spandex, described by the brand as ultrafine 2-ply cotton finished with a performance treatment against shrinking, fading, and pilling.
- Fit
- Original Fit is a roomy classic cut the brand designs for a wide range of body types; Slim Fit runs distinctly trimmer, and some owners size up in it. Expect a more generous cut overall than slimmer contemporary polos.
- Quality
- The stretch-blend fabric and wash-resistant finish draw few complaints about shrinking or pilling, and construction is tidy. Long-time customers on menswear forums say today's imported polos are solid but not the equal of the brand's older domestically made production.
- Best for
- Traditional and office-casual dressers who want a conservative pique polo with a small heritage chest logo, bought on one of the brand's frequent sales rather than at list.
- Care
- Machine washable per the care label; the performance finish is designed to survive regular washing without shrinking or fading, so no special handling is needed.
