A long sleeve knit polo is a specific answer to a specific hour, and the three cuts here split by how much attention they want. The heathers are the quiet ones: a single mottled colour that reads as one shade from a cart path and as two up close. The print is the loud one. What they share is the collar and placket from the short sleeve shelf, so they sit under a quarter zip without a second collar bunching at the neck. Prices run $19.95 to $37.95 across thirty-two colourways, and the run is S to 3XL on all three.

The number to read here is the UPF. Part of this page is knitted to 50+, the band the Skin Cancer Foundation calls excellent and the floor for its own seal. The rest is 30+, which the same body calls very good. Either way it is a property of the cloth and not a promise about your afternoon. The other thing worth checking is the cuff: it sits close enough not to catch on a glove strap, which is the single reason men who play in long sleeves keep going back to a knit polo instead of a woven shirt.

Every colourway here is priced on its own. the Michel Rouen wardrobe keeps the figures current and the till is what decides.

Questions about Michel Rouen Long Sleeve Polos

The same collar, run to the wrist

When should you take a Michel Rouen long sleeve polo over a short one?

On a cold start, because a thin knit under a quarter zip solves an eight o'clock tee time without the bulk of a jumper. And in open sun, because covering the arm is what the American Academy of Dermatology puts first, ahead of anything you apply.

Which Michel Rouen long sleeve polos give you UPF 50+?

Part of this shelf rather than all of it, and the card says which. Where a card carries 50+, the dry unstretched cloth lets less than one fiftieth of ultraviolet through. Where it says 30+, less than one thirtieth.

Will the cuff get in the way of your swing?

It is cut close rather than loose, which is the point: a loose cuff is what catches on a glove. It sits at the wrist and stays there, and the knit has enough give that the sleeve does not bind at the top of the backswing.
