APRÍSHIELD LYOCELL POLO
The APRÍSHIELD Lyocell Polo is made for sport, golf, padel, and wherever else you need a polo that actually performs — built from TENCEL™ Lyocell, the natural fibre that's softer, more breathable, and more odour-resistant than polyester or cotton alternatives.
Treated with NordShield™ plant-based anti-odour technology — derived from Nordic wood extractives, free from silver, zinc, and heavy metals. Retains 99.9% effectiveness after 30 washes. You can wear this polo through a full 18 holes, a padel session, or a casual day out, and it stays genuinely fresh.
Why a Lyocell Polo?
Cotton polos become waterlogged and heavy when you sweat. Synthetic performance polos wick moisture but develop persistent bacterial odour within a season. TENCEL™ Lyocell manages moisture more intelligently — absorbing and distributing sweat evenly for faster evaporation, with naturally smooth fibres that resist bacterial accumulation. The result is a polo that performs actively and looks presentable everywhere you wear it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose a lyocell polo over cotton or synthetic?
Cotton polos become heavy and waterlogged when you sweat. Synthetic polos wick moisture but develop persistent bacterial odour within a season. TENCEL™ Lyocell absorbs and distributes sweat for faster evaporation, with naturally smooth fibres that resist bacterial accumulation — so it stays cooler during sport and genuinely fresher across multiple wears without washing.
Is this suitable for golf, padel, and tennis?
Yes — designed specifically for these activities. The classic fit, breathable lyocell fabric, and clean design make it a practical performance polo for sport that works just as well for casual wear after the round or game.
How does the anti-odour technology work?
Treated with APRÍshield™ NordShield — derived from Nordic wood extractives, free from silver, zinc, and heavy metals. Works at the fibre level to prevent the bacterial activity responsible for odour. Independently tested to retain 99.9% effectiveness after 30 washes.
What's the fit like?
Classic fit — clean and understated. True to size. Works seamlessly across sport and casual contexts without being too athletic or too formal.
Is TENCEL™ Lyocell sustainable?
Yes. TENCEL™ Lyocell is produced from sustainably sourced wood cellulose in a closed-loop manufacturing process that recycles 99.5% of the chemicals used. Biodegradable, producing no microplastics during washing. Certified OEKO-TEX Standard 100, GOTS, and Bluesign.

DESCRIPTION
APRÍSHIELD LYOCELL POLO is a sporty buttonless performance polo shirt crafted from a blend of luxurious, ultra-soft, highly breathable TENCEL™ Lyocell and cotton fabric. This cooling, silky feel polo has a tonal printed logo on the chest and the garment is treated with a plant based anti odour treatment from Nordshield. This treatment keeps the product fresh for longer - so you don’t have to wash it as often.
ANTI ODOUR EFFECT
Our anti-odour treatment activates in different stages depending on individual circumstances. While some customers notice the initial effects almost immediately, for others, it may take up to 48 hours for the full impact. Please rest assured that the treatment is actively working during this time.
Good to know: The garment needs to be fully dried before the treatment can take effect. If the fabric is damp or wet, it will take longer for the treatment to work.
