The verdict
Fit
Jersey construction typically offers a relaxed, comfortable fit compared to traditional piqué. Sizing likely runs true to Drake's standards; check a chart before ordering.
Quality
Drake's reputation rests on refined fabrication and detail work. At this price, expect well-finished seams and a jersey that holds shape through regular wear.
Is the price fair?
Mid-tier pricing for a British casualwear brand. Fair for the construction quality and heritage positioning, though the price reflects brand reputation as much as fabric.
Best for
Someone seeking a polished but relaxed daily polo from a brand with proven tailoring credentials.
Care
Cotton jersey typically softens and may shrink slightly; gentle wash and dry flat or lay to preserve structure.
What owners report about Drake's polos
Drake's polos split into heavyweight piqué cotton styles and knitted cotton-linen styles, and fabric weight is the first thing owners mention: several wear the piqué constantly and count the thick cloth as a plus, while one reviewer found the material so heavy and thick it "almost felt like cotton canvas" and passed on it. The knitted polos get specific praise for fit, cut and collar, though even fans call them extravagantly expensive. One long-term owner reports the piqué's colour faded with frequent wear (revived with a home machine dye), and owners note the distinctive 70s-style collar on the long-sleeve piqué.
- Strengths
- Owners call the piqué polo very well executed and hard-wearing, and praise the fit, cut and collar of the knitted cotton-linen polos.
- Watch out for
- The heavy, thick piqué hand polarizes owners, colour fades with heavy wear, and the knitted polos are repeatedly flagged as extremely expensive even by people who like them.
- Sizing
- One owner who sized down in the knitted polo for a slimmer look concluded the design intent is a boxier, 1950s-style silhouette with longer, fuller sleeves — sizing down works against the cut.
