Product Insights & Style Tips

The Drake's Merino Wool Knit Rugby Shirt channels a refined retro mood, where athletic ease meets knitwear polish. Extrafine merino wool yields a soft, breathable hand with quiet warmth, while the solid rugby knit keeps the silhouette crisp and versatile. A spread collar sits neatly at the neck, and a quarter placket adds a clean, understated detail. Long sleeves end in ribbed cuffs for a tidy, timeless line. Made in Italy, this piece reads premium without shouting.

The 100% merino wool knit drapes with quiet refinement and moves with the body from morning errands to evening plans. The ribbed cuffs anchor the sleeve and the spread collar keeps the neckline crisp, while the quarter placket invites easy layering over a tee or under a blazer. Care is dry clean, preserving the soft hand and the knit’s structure.

Drake's blends heritage prep with modern ease, and this Rugby Shirt embodies that DNA. It nods to retro collegiate style while remaining versatile enough to anchor both smart and casual looks, pairing cleanly with denim, chinos, or a tailored layer for a casually polished moment.

About Drake's

Established in 1977 as a seller of men's clothing in the vicinity of Spitalfields in East London, Drake's offers refined casual attire inspired by traditional English sporting fashion. The founder, Michael Drake, initially focused on men's accessories such as scarves, shawls, plaid items, and handkerchiefs. Later on, he expanded the brand's offerings to include handcrafted silk ties through a collaboration with Charles Hill, the father of the current creative director, Michael Hill. With the younger Hill's meticulous attention, Drake's has grown to provide a complete range of clothing, footwear, and accessories that stay true to the brand's original commitment to high-quality craftsmanship from the '70s. The collection features sophisticated suede and pebble grain derbys, cozy merino knitwear, and corduroy jackets in earthy tones, all playfully contrasted with pops of primary colors in the form of monochromatic scarves, six-panel ball caps, and sporty patterned jumpers. Over four decades of striving for effortless sophistication has instilled in Drake's a deep appreciation for the sporting styles of the past, balanced with a keen understanding of contemporary needs.
