Super high quality and fit
Top quality from the very first feel, before I even wore it. The fit was perfect and I can just tell it’s going to be one of those items of clothing that will last a long time. Will be buying again.

Very good quality
This is a very high-quality T-shirt. It's very comfortable and soft. Be careful not to put it in the washing machine. If you must, use a cold, very gentle cycle to avoid damaging the fibers.

Designed in the Netherlands, dressing up a polo without a shirt.
Cotton Silk is our answer to how you dress up a polo or a tee without reaching for a shirt. It's cotton knitted with a silk hand: soft, breathable and dry against the skin, with a subtle sheen that reads refined rather than shiny. 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.
The range, by how you'll actually wear it
Cotton Silk polo (PO 04). The classic buttoned knit polo, in tonal shades.
Buttonless polo (PO 05). A clean open-collar polo with no placket.
Longsleeve polo (PO 04 LS). The polo with long sleeves for cooler days.
Knit tee (TS 04). A refined crew-neck that lifts above a jersey tee.
How to wear it
Cotton Silk does the work of a shirt with the ease of a knit. Wear the polo or knit tee with an Essence trouser or chino and a suede loafer for the office or dinner, or with shorts and clean sneakers in summer. The buttonless polo reads a touch more relaxed; the longsleeve carries it into autumn under an overshirt.
Fabric, fit and care
Cotton Silk is breathable and dry with a soft, refined handle and a subtle sheen, knitted rather than woven so it drapes cleanly. A clean, regular fit; most customers find it true to size. Wash cool at 30°C and dry flat to protect the finish.
Frequently asked about Cotton Silk
What is Cotton Silk?
A knit of cotton with a silk hand: soft and breathable, with a subtle sheen and a dry feel that dresses a polo or tee up without trying.
What styles come in Cotton Silk?
A buttoned polo, a buttonless polo, a longsleeve polo and a knit crew tee, each in a run of tonal colours.
Is it suitable for the office?
Yes. With a tailored trouser and a loafer, a Cotton Silk polo or knit tee sits comfortably at the smart-casual end.
Does it shrink or pill?
Washed cool at 30°C, inside out, and dried flat rather than tumbled, it keeps its shape and stays smooth. 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.
