Orlebar Brown

Blue Polo Shirt Silk-Cotton Statement Knit

The English expats in this Tuscan hill town take their Sunday cricket seriously-whites pressed, stumps painted, tea interval observed. When their opening batsman twists his ankle chasing a boundary, they eye you speculatively. "Ever held a bat?" someone asks. You mention a decent club average from university days. Keeling in Night Iris & Cashew fits the moment perfectly. Classic polo cut that nods to sporting tradition without shouting about it, organic cotton-silk blend that breathes through the afternoon heat whilst maintaining its shape through diving catches and enthusiastic appeals. The tipped collar and chest pockets earn immediate approval-proper cricket protocol, someone jokes. Three hours later, you've scored forty-two not out and taken a brilliant slip catch that has the locals buying drinks. The captain slides you a fixture list. "We play the next village Saturday week. Fancy making it a regular thing?" Sometimes the best teams choose you. Feel Summer.
