Vertical stripes — the quiet trick that makes a polo look taller, sharper, considered. The 98° North Vertical Striped Pique Polo takes a warm beige base and runs bold vertical bands of navy, black, and blue-grey down each side of the chest. It's a retro-leaning, racing-stripe look — the kind of pattern that frames the body and draws the eye downward, giving the polo a clean, elongating effect most horizontal stripes can't. The centre stays calm in solid beige; the colour lives at the edges. A grown-up palette with genuine character. The fabric is a classic cotton pique knit — that subtle textured weave that breathes through warm afternoons and holds its shape wash after wash. The two-button placket, tipped collar, and ribbed sleeve cuffs give it the structured finish that separates a real polo from a t-shirt pretending to be one. The regular fit keeps it relaxed through the shoulders without going baggy at the waist — easy to tuck in or wear loose. Pair it with navy chinos to pick up the stripe, blue denim for the weekend, or stone trousers for an easy tonal look. From casual Fridays in Delhi to evening plans in Bangalore, this polo brings a vintage edge without looking like
A mood, an occasion, a feeling, matched to real, wearable pieces from independent Indian brands.
