    How it's made

    Wash cold on a gentle cycle or by hand; reshape and dry flat, out of direct sun.

    Do not tumble dry or wring; cool iron through a cloth if needed.

    Store folded, not hung, to keep the knit’s shape. Light pilling settles after the first wash — lift gently with a comb.

    Giza 45 lives up to the legend

    I buy Egyptian-cotton dress shirts in Japan and know the real thing. This is genuine long-staple Giza — the hand-feel doesn't lie. Rare to find it in a relaxed knit, and at this price.

    Softest cotton I've ever worn

    I have polos from brands costing three times this. None feel like this Giza cotton — cool, soft, and it holds its shape after washing. I ordered a second in cream the same week.

    The knit is the detail

    Open-collar knit polos are everywhere now, but the texture here is on another level. People keep asking where it's from. Telling them it's Egyptian Giza cotton lands every time.

    A handwritten note in the box

    Numbered box, cotton dust bag, and a short note from Cairo. For the price I expected good — I didn't expect to feel looked after. Quietly the nicest unboxing I've had this year.

    Proud it's made in Egypt

    As an Egyptian abroad, seeing our cotton turned into something this refined — and sold honestly to the world — means a lot. Quality matches anything from Europe.

    Holiday wardrobe sorted

    Wore it five days straight in Mallorca — dinner, beach bar, flight home. Breathes beautifully in heat and never looked tired. This is what 'resort' should mean.

    Sceptical, then sold

    A new brand at this price made me cautious. It arrived better than the photos — the stripe, the collar, the weight. Trust the reviews; it's the real thing.

    My new summer uniform

    Dressed up with a blazer for dinner, thrown over swim shorts the next morning. Few things are this versatile. The cotton only gets softer with each wash.

    Bought three

    Cocoa, cream, ecru. Once you find a polo that fits and feels this good you just want it in every colour. Washes beautifully — no shrinking, no sagging.

    Old-money look, honest price

    Pairs with linen trousers and loafers and instantly looks expensive. The difference is it isn't — no logo tax. Exactly the brand I wanted to exist.

    Beautiful — size up if between

    Quality is undeniable and the cocoa stripe is gorgeous. Fit is a touch trim across the chest for me, so I exchanged for the L — exchange was painless and free. Five stars on the cotton, four on my first size guess.

    Excellent — wish it came in navy

    Honestly faultless on quality and fit. Only reason for four stars is selfish: I want more colours. Take my money when navy drops.
