The verdict
Fit
Pique weave in khaki sits naturally; standard polo fit works for casual weekend or paired with chinos.
Quality
Solid entry-level Drake's pique—even weaving, good seam work, collar-reinforced for frequent wear.
Is the price fair?
At 145 GBP, fair for a versatile everyday piece that works across many casual contexts.
Best for
Weekend casual or summer evenings; khaki pairs easily with neutral or light bottoms.
Care
Wash warm, tumble-dry low; pique improves with repeated washing as the weave softens.
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.
