Superb quality
Great quality polo, with a perfect fit. Would highly recommend!
Designed in the Netherlands, the quiet upgrade to the classic polo.
Remove the button placket and you're left with a clean, unbroken neckline: the easy collar and shape of a polo, with a sharper, more modern line. The PO 05 Tailored Buttonless is knitted from Cotton Silk, breathable cotton with the soft hand and subtle sheen of silk, so it dresses up a trouser on its own and stays comfortable through a long day. Designed in our Dutch studio and made in family-owned ateliers in Portugal, Turkey or China, chosen per piece for the best make.
Across more than 500 verified reviews ETQ holds 4.6 out of 5, and comfort is the word that recurs most after quality. Part of a community of more than 250,000 customers.
What makes a buttonless polo different
A classic polo has a short button placket at the throat; the buttonless version takes it away. A cleaner line, so the eye runs straight from collar to chest and it reads more considered, less sporty. An easier wear, nothing to fasten, smart-casual by default. And a modern shape: the open collar sits flat and frames the neck, which is why the buttonless polo has become the quiet alternative to both the shirt and the crew tee. For the traditional look, the classic buttoned PO 04 keeps the placket.
The fabric
Cotton Silk pairs the breathability and easy care of cotton with the soft, dry hand and faint sheen of silk. It's knitted, not woven, so it holds a clean drape rather than clinging, and stays dry and cool against the skin. The subtle lustre lifts it above an ordinary jersey polo, present in good light, never shiny. See the full Cotton Silk knit range.
How to wear it
Office and dinner: with an Essence trouser and a suede loafer, the clean neckline carrying the outfit. Smart weekend: with chinos or denim and a clean white sneaker. Layered: under an overshirt, where the open collar sits cleaner than a buttoned one. For built-out looks, see our business casual edit.
Buttonless, classic or long-sleeve?
The buttonless PO 05 is the cleanest, most modern neckline, choose it if you mostly wear your polo open. The classic PO 04 keeps the buttoned placket. The long-sleeve carries the knit into cooler months. All share the same fabric and fit.
Frequently asked about buttonless polos
What is a buttonless polo shirt?
A polo with the button placket removed, leaving a clean, unbroken collared neckline. You keep the collar and easy shape of a polo, with a sharper, more modern line.
What's it made of?
Cotton Silk knit: breathable cotton with the soft hand and subtle sheen of silk, knitted for a clean drape that stays dry and cool against the skin.
Is it more or less formal than a classic polo?
Slightly sharper and more modern. Worn open at the neck it reads smart-casual: cleaner than a buttoned polo and more relaxed than a shirt.
Does the PO 05 run true to size?
Yes, for most customers, in line with our knitwear. It's a clean, regular fit; if you prefer a looser drape, size up. Each product page carries verified-buyer fit feedback.
Does the Cotton Silk polo shrink or pill?
Washed gently at 30°C, inside out, and dried flat rather than tumbled, it holds its shape and the structured collar keeps its line. Skip the tumble dryer; turning it inside out limits any pilling.
Where is it made?
Designed in our Dutch studio and made in family-owned ateliers in Portugal, Turkey or China, chosen per piece.
