What the Wimbledons gets right about piqué

Wimbledons · The Piqué Shirt

Oct 31, 2026·

The Wimbledons is a straightforward idea: a piqué top in white. No logo, no unnecessary seams, nothing that dates quickly.

Fabric

Look closely and the weave is even. piqué of this quality keeps its shape after repeated washing, which is where most tops fail.

How to wear it

Wear it with a white tee and sneakers for the weekend, or a shirt and knit for something more considered.

Fit

The shape is familiar and that is deliberate. It reads as a top you have owned for years, not one bought last week.

Care

Thirty degrees, mild detergent, no fabric softener. The latter coats the fibres and dulls white over time.

Worth knowing

Colours within the range are dyed to sit together, which makes combining two pieces from the same fabric straightforward.

Consider it if you want piqué without the price of a designer label, and a cut that will not look dated in two years.
