UES ‘Konoko’ Polo Shirts

As one of UES’s best selling items, the basic polo is made from UES’s own special cotton ‘Konoko’ fabric! 
  
In person, the texture of UES's ‘Konoko’ fabric is super soft and slightly un-even! With daily use, this breathable fabric will keep you cool. By using 100% cotton, uneven slub yarn, UES are able to create this fabric using vintage knitting machines that run at a very slow pace! Additionally, the collar and sleeves use a extra thick ribbed fabric to help maintain the shirt's shape and increase durability!  
  
Construction wise the entire shirt is skilfully sewn on vintage machines with internal binding tape on the side seams for added strength. To finish it off, the collar closure uses extra thick white urea buttons and of course you can also see the famous red ‘UES’ attached to the left sleeve! 
  
If you are looking for a classic polo with artisan details, this is a quality option!

How We Measure

Pants and Shorts

Waist:

With the major buttoned up (i.e. the top button) open the jeans and lay them flat, like shown. Measure from the front where the major button closes to the back belt loop. Double this measurement to find the waist measurement.

The way we measure the waist is different from the 'Side to Side' technique. If you are used to the 'side to side' technique you can roughly roughly downsize by 1 inch.

For example, 'side to side' measurement for The Flat Head 3002 waist is 28inch and using our method measures at 29.25inch.

Front Rise:

With the jeans lying flat measure from the crotch bar tack to the top of the waistband. 

Back Rise:

Spread out the crotch so the bar tack is visible, then measure from the crotch to the top of the waistband.

Thigh:

One inch down from the crotch, measure flat across to the other side.

Inseam:

Flatten the leg and measure along the inseam from the crotch to the leg hem. 

Leg Openning:

Measure straight across the hem from side to side.

 

 

Tops

Shoulder:

Lay flat then measure from the shoulder's edge to the other shoulder's edge.

Chest:

Lay shirt flat and measure from pit to pit.

Sleeve length:

With the sleeve flat measure from the shoulder to the cuff.

Arm hole openning:

Measure from the shoulder down to the pitt.

Vertical length:

With the shirt facing down, Measure from below the collar to the bottom hem.
