POL Rune Tee, Ink

$159.00

POL sizing. Cut in Australian sizes, 8 to 14. Full measurements in the size guide below.

Complimentary delivery on this piece, Australia-wide.

Five self-covered buttons run along the left shoulder and they are the reason this is not just a satin tee.

The rest is held back on purpose. Fluid viscose with a satin face, a round neck, a front cut in one piece with no seam across it, cap sleeves and a hem that curves slightly. One detail doing all the work.

Worn with the Rune pant it becomes a set, with the buttons as the only interruption.

POL is an Australian label, founded by Sam Jones in 2008, and cuts in Australian sizes, which are the same as UK sizes. Knits and some tops come in letter sizes instead: an XS is an AU 8, S an AU 10, M an AU 12, L an AU 14 and XL an AU 16. The measurements below are the house's own, in centimetres, taken from the body rather than the garment.

Measurements in centimetres. Body measurements, not garment measurements.

Choosing between two sizes

POL's chart gives the body measurements each size is built on. The house suggests comparing them with your own. Its models generally wear an 8 unless a piece says otherwise. Any style we know to run differently is noted in its Fit line.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part.
Waist: around the slimmest part of your natural waist, between the ribcage and the navel.
Hip: around the widest part, at the top of the legs.

Caring for POL knitwear

Check the care label first. If a knit is not dirty, air it between wears instead of washing it.

Hand wash in cool water with a gentle or delicates detergent. The house advises against woolwash, which can make dyes run. A little hair conditioner leaves natural-fibre knits softer.

Roll the knit in a clean towel to lift out the water, reshape it while damp and dry it flat in the shade. Never on the line, which stretches it. Store it folded, not on a hanger.

Some pilling is normal on cotton, merino and cashmere, mostly under the arms and where a bag strap rubs. Hand washing helps, as does keeping knits away from fleece-lined jackets and rough surfaces. A pilling shaver, run lightly over the fabric pulled taut, lifts what appears. Take off jewellery that could snag before you put a knit on.

For everything else, follow the care label sewn into the piece.

Still not sure

We have handled these pieces and can tell you how a particular style sits against the chart. Write to us before you order, or come and try it in Red Hill. The full edit is in our POL collection.

Cold gentle machine wash or hand wash. Do not tumble dry. Dry flat in the shade and cool iron.
