Is there a shirt more versatile than a polo? In terms of comfort, style, and versatility, it’s a hard one to beat. While you can find affordable options at a place like Nordstrom Rack, those who demand premium quality without premium prices get theirs from Huckberry’s house brand Proof. These polos are crafted with moisture-wicking and odor-resistant merino wool and are a fantastic pick for travel, golf, and everyday wear. They rarely see any kind of discount, but right now, they’re down to one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen.
The Proof 72-Hour Merino Polo Shirt is on sale starting at just $60, and while the 32% savings off its normal $88 price tag may not seem like a lot, fans of the brand understand that it’s a pretty good discount on the high-performance 72-Hour collection. These shirts have earned nearly three dozen five-star ratings—that’s a lot by Huckberry standards—and shoppers love its high quality, with one even saying, “The fit is perfect—it’s breathable and comfortable.” These polo shirts are on sale in six excellent colors and come in sizes XS to 3XL.

There are normal polos, and then there is this merino wool performance polo that allows you to wear it for days while staying fresh and odor-free. With its super soft material, this itch-free shirt is the perfect option for travelers and adventurers looking for a light-packing garment that stays clean while minimizing laundry. It’s made from 87% 16.5-micron Australian merino wool with a comfy 13% nylon, making it naturally odor-resistant, moisture-wicking, and UPF 30+ protective, but also durable enough to machine wash and not bat an eye. It’s been designed with a standard three-button placket, a free collar that retains its shape, and a well-balanced cut that’s not too slim and not too baggy.
“I’m amazed,” one shopper said.”I have hyperhidrosis and have sweat my whole life…enter the 72-hour Merino polo—no undershirt needed. It keeps me cool, even in black and in the Florida sun. It doesn’t show sweat, and it doesn’t smell. The craziest thing of all, I’m wearing it right now and have worn it every day for a week. It’s like magic. When I take it off at night, there’s a very faint…smell. I hang it in the closet, not touching anything else, and in the morning, it’s fresh again. I don’t understand, but who cares?”

Another shopper praised its performance, too. “I love this polo for the summer,” they said. “It breathes well, with plenty of circulation in the garment. The sleeves are cut right to show off my arms. I love that I can wear and sweat it in hot weather, and I have no significant body order after use. It’s a great polo to wear on the golf course too.”
When Huckberry slashes prices on performance gear, it tends to sell quickly, and the Huckberry Proof 72-Hour Merino Polo Shirt is no different. Grab one in multiple colors before they sell out.
