This sporty, casual polo shirt is made at Armor lux from skin-friendly terrycloth made from pure cotton that feels soft against the skin. The characterful fabric is voluminous and breathable and can absorb a lot of moisture thanks to the enlarged surface area created by the loops, giving it a pleasant air-conditioning effect on hot summer days. The buttonless polo shirt has a comfortable, slightly fitted cut that softly hugs the figure without being restrictive.

"Armor" is the Breton word for sea, and "lux" can only mean the light on the coast. A maritime style, in any case, is what characterises many of the garments produced by Armor lux. The company, set up by a Swiss man in the Breton town of Quimper at the end of the 1930s, manufactures sweaters, shirts, dresses, trousers, hats, caps and scarves. In the 1960s, Armor lux established its own dyeing workshop so that all manufacturing processes were gathered under one roof, from fabric production to quality controls. In the 1970s, they introduced their first major collection. Since then, the label stands for simple, comfortable cuts, classic colours and an uncompromising approach regarding quality in terms of material and workmanship. For the most part, the production takes place at the headquarters in France and to a small extent in factories in Madagascar and Tunisia.
