Style: For me, a polo shirt is best when made from pique cotton, so I was skeptical of the 50% pima cotton, 50% Drytex acrylic Bonobos Jetsetter. But after wearing it many times, I’ve begun to see the appeal. Yes, it strikes a decidedly more athleisure note, but the fabric blend is sleeker than pique, which gives you a slightly different look than a classic polo. If you like the athletic look, you could do far worse than the Jetsetter, and I can see this shirt working well on a plane, where you may want the comfort and performance of your gym clothes without actually wearing them.
Fit
The Jetsetter is a very handsome trim fit. I’m not especially svelte, but the shirt should fit many body types well. It’s got a nice drape for a 50% synthetic fabric and the collar comes to a sharper point than the pique shirts, which gives it just a touch more elegance than your average performance wear.
Durability
Absolutely no qualms here. Easy in and out of the washer and dryer, no need to reshape the collar, and no need to worry about the shirt shrinking either. After the Lacoste, this is my second-favorite to wear on the tennis court. The performance fabric stood up to the swings and the sweat.
Comfort:
I found the Jetsetter very comfortable, but it is a trimmer fit, so those who like their shirts roomier, the Ralph Lauren Slim Fit is likely more up your alley. The hand of this polo’s fabric is quite soft, the details are polished without being fussy, and as the only polo I tested without armbands, the sleeves weren’t constricting in the least.
