Suvin Gold Knit Polo

“SUVIN GOLD” is an ultra-rare cotton grown by a select group of farmers in Tamil Nadu, India, accounting for only a small percentage of the world’s cotton production. This precious extra-long staple cotton is finely knitted on Japan’s highest-grade FF30 gauge machines, resulting in a beautifully crafted knit polo shirt.

Since its launch over a decade ago, this piece has remained a customer favorite.This season, inspired by a sense of refreshing coolness, it is offered in seven colors.We invite you to experience this polo shirt—one of Kamakura Shirts’ true masterpieces.

A silk-like luster and an irresistibly smooth, second-skin feel. These qualities are made possible by the rare extra-long staple cotton, “SUVIN GOLD.” Among Suvin cotton, grown only by a select number of farmers in southern India, only the finest first and second pickings are carefully selected. Accounting for just a small percentage of the world’s cotton production, its rarity gives rise to a truly distinctive and refined texture.

2. Finely Knit on FF30 Gauge

Crafted using German full-fashion knitting machines, each piece is carefully knitted at a fine 30-gauge. The high-gauge construction creates an exceptionally refined knit, minimizing the casual look typical of knitwear and giving it a clean, tailored appearance similar to woven fabric.

In addition, the full-fashion technique, where each part is shaped three-dimensionally, reduces bulk at the seams, resulting in a lighter, more comfortable fit. This precise knitting method brings out the full potential of the material.

3. Limited Colors with a Refreshing Feel

Marine, evoking the crisp freshness of the sea. Hydrangea, offering a soft and nuanced elegance. Each shade is carefully designed to enhance the beautiful luster of SUVIN GOLD. From timeless essentials to refined accents, the full range of seven colors blends effortlessly into a sophisticated summer wardrobe.

 

4. To Ensure Years of Wear

To preserve the delicate knit and the quality of the material, we recommend hand washing. If using a washing machine, please take the following precautions:
*Turn the garment inside out and place it in a laundry net.
*Wash gently on a delicate cycle.
For drying, we recommend laying flat or hanging on a rod. With a little extra care, you can enjoy its beautiful texture and silhouette for years to come.
