The Kartel Elle Spring / Summer 2011 collection embodies fashion that is functional to ensure you produce a high calibre performance on the fairways. The range incorporates on the green results with off the green style. Get the ultimate in chic performance with elegant designs, modern cuts and preppy fashion.  

Our new collection co-ordinates luxury poloshirts and rich cotton and wool knitwear with technical sporting garments. This season’s range features a rainbow of bright and fresh colours including candyfloss pink, spearmint green, hyacinth blue, strawberry, vanilla, navy, eggshell, white, stone, olivegrey and tango orange. The ladies colour stories are designed to intertwine and work together to create a complete leisurewear wardrobe that will take you from a competitive morning on the green to a warm, relaxed afternoon at the clubhouse. 

The versatile polo has emerged as the superstar must-have for any man’s wardrobe in a new trend that has seen a definite smartening up of the casual look. The poloshirt finds its origins in sportswear but has been developed and adpated through the decades to now appear in various guises, from a technical performance sports garment to a tailored cotton fashion essential worn on screen by James Bond.

The classic poloshirt can create an instant outfit worn simply with jeans and trainers for an everyday look. But this versatile top has many sides and a huge personality that can be adapted to many occasions. Team a plain polo with some chinos and a pair of coloured pumps for Sunday morning brunch or coffee with friends. Smarten up for after work drinks by wearing a polo with contrast collar and cuffs worn buttoned-up under a suit jacket. Or even get nautical with a blue, white and red stripe polo, some cargo shorts and a pair of boat shoes, perfect for any summer weekend.

Kartel’s extensive range of both casual and performance poloshirts include both regular and technical fits, so no matter what your body shape you should find a cut to suit you. Here are our top must-have polos:
