The Specs
Perhaps the most traditional piece of sporting attire ever created, the Polo shirt has long been a symbol of refined athleticism, worn by gentleman adventurers from the verdant polo grounds to the rugged peaks of the 19th century. As alpinists of the Golden Age of Mountaineering pursued first ascents across the world’s great ranges, they carried with them a spirit of exploration, elegance, and functional dress. Honoring this heritage, Alps & Meters’ Ascent Polo blends the pioneering ethos of classic mountaineering with the original innovation of early polo shirts. Designed with timeless taste and an ultra-fine knitted construction, this outdoor garment stands as an essential for the year-round sportsman, from alpine summits to lush valleys and all other fair weather climes the world over.

Care Instructions

Proper clothing care begins with reading and following garment care labels, as different fabrics require specific treatments.
Sort laundry by color and fabric type before washing, using cold or warm water for most items to prevent shrinkage and color fading, and reserving hot water for heavily soiled whites and linens.
Turn garments inside out to protect prints and reduce pilling, fasten zippers and buttons to prevent snagging, and use appropriate detergent amounts—too much can leave residue while too little won't clean effectively.
Avoid overloading the washing machine to ensure proper cleaning and rinsing, and consider air-drying delicate items or using low heat in the dryer to extend garment life. Remove clothes promptly after washing to minimize wrinkles, hang or fold items properly for storage, and address stains quickly by blotting rather than rubbing.
Regular maintenance like mending small tears, replacing buttons, and storing seasonal items in breathable containers will help your wardrobe last longer and maintain its appearance.

About our clothing
Each high performance garment, essential, and accessory fuses high quality natural materials with classic garment construction methods and contemporary technologies to deliver first class products that are tailored, technical, and timeless.
There was a time during the early advent of alpine sport when, out of sheer necessity, garments were truly built to last. Purposeful design and construction techniques delivered durable, timeless garments that were passed down from generation to generation. Woven into the fabric is a commitment to old-world quality and an intention to revisit classic and sturdy methods of making, so as to create alpine sportswear meant for a lifetime of use in the mountains.
