THE KINGPIN | Premium Pique Knit Shirt

There's a version of this shirt that almost every brand makes. This isn't that.

The Kingpin starts where standard pique ends. Built from a 90% cotton / 10% spandex double-knit pique construction, it delivers something most shirts in this category can't: visual depth, tactile refinement, and a structured drape that holds its shape. This is what a pique knit looks like when it's crafted with precision.

If you are #winning you should be #kingpinning.

Why the construction matters:

• 90% pique cotton / 10% spandex — the spandex content gives controlled stretch and recovery, maintaining shape without restriction
• Double-knit pique construction — two interlocking layers create the signature textured surface while maximizing structural integrity
• High-gauge knitting — tighter needle spacing produces a finer, more refined fabric surface than standard pique
• Twist-balanced yarns — engineered to prevent torque and distortion, so the shirt drapes straight and stays that way
• Moisture dispersing — actively moves sweat away from the body, keeping you dry and composed

The details that set it apart:

• Brass-branded HOS grommet collar — a signature detail that replaces the standard placket with something worth looking at
• Blue swirl buttons — considered, distinctive, and entirely HOS
• House of Spoliz embroidery, back yoke — the brand mark where it counts
• Satin woven label — finished correctly, inside and out

FAQ's

What makes Pique knit different from regular cotton? Pique is a weaving technique that creates a textured, waffle-like surface. It's more visually interesting than flat cotton, more breathable due to the interlocking weave structure, and holds its shape better over time.

What does double-knit construction mean? Double-knit means two layers of fabric are knitted simultaneously and interlocked, creating a more substantial, structured fabric than single-knit alternatives. It's a tailoring-level construction choice.

Why does the spandex content matter? The 10% spandex gives the shirt controlled stretch and shape recovery without losing its structure. You get comfort without sacrificing the silhouette.

Why 6-8 weeks for delivery? The Kingpin is a limited spring drop made to order. The extended lead time is a function of the construction quality; high-gauge double-knit pique takes longer to produce than standard garments. It's worth the wait. *Limited Production Policy - select items are produced in limited runs.
