The Baileys summer collection is better than ever this year!

With the sunny weather on arrival and temperatures already starting to rise. Baileys puts on a great Spring / Summer collection as usual. This season, Baileys has chosen to experiment with colors and materials to create a challenging yet classic collection. The Spring / Summer collection consists of jackets, sweaters, T-shirts and shirts this season, but also think of great pants, swimming trunks and of course our iconic polos.

In addition to beautiful T-shirts, Baileys also has the most beautiful polo shirts in the collection this season. The advantage of a polo shirt is that during warm weather, it is more stylish than a T-shirt but much more comfortable than a shirt. To make wearing a shirt as comfortable as possible, Baileys uses light and unique fabrics to make the wearer as optimal as possible.

The Iconic collections of Baileys shirts can be worn both formally and casual. The rule for this is: When the shirt is worn for formal occasions, choose a double cuff. If it’s a casual affair, wear a single cuff.

Whatever your preference, Baileys’ Spring / Summer collections are airy, flexible and stand for style and luxury.

Our knitwear collection:

Baileys is known for its high-quality knitwear collections. These knitwear collections are produced from sustainable products, where animal and welfare are paramount.

What is wool and how does Baileys use it:

Wool consists of soft, thin hair from the fur of certain animals. Baileys uses wool to produce the high-quality garments. The wool that Baileys uses is produced in Australia and New Zealand.

The history of wool:

Wool consists of a special type of animal hair that is created by a long selection process in the fur of wild sheep. The people who used to wear sheepskins as clothing gradually discovered that they could also make yarn and woven textiles from their hair.Wool differs from her in that it has scales. Wool is also crimped. It has up to 20 turns per 2.5 centimeters. This keeps the air well retained, making wool a good heat insulator. This insulating outer layer prevents a sheep from excluding its body heat. Both properties, the scales and the crucible, which makes it easy to spin. The fibers hook easily together and then stick together.

There are different types of wool:

• Virgin wool is the undamaged wool, sheared from a healthy and living sheep. Virgin wool can be recognized in a store by the international wool brand, which is legally protected in more than 100 countries.

• Naked wool from trowel wool is wool from a dead sheep. It is obtained by a chemical treatment of the skins of slaughtered sheep.

• Tear wool aimed at wools of a lower quality, recovered from worn clothing or from yarn and fabric waste from the textile industry.

• Artificial wool is wool that occurs from reuse. It does not come directly from the animal, but is extracted from wool-containing rags.Why does Baileys use wool? Wool is a good insulator against cold. This is because there is a lot of stagnant air between the small curled fibers of the wool. Wool naturally has a high elasticity. This means that it tends to return to its shape. So it is a resilient fiber, which makes Baileys woolen clothes feel soft.

Maintenance:

Wool is a delicate fabric. Sweaters that are worn over a T-shirt shirt should not be washed too often. The same goes for Baileys wool coats. Airing is a better option than washing. If it is necessary, wool can be washed. However, this does not apply to all wool types. In any case, the washing label in the clothing should be carefully observed. Hand washing is also preferred.

The Baileys Polo

With the warm weather ahead, we can already see the trend of the polo shirt returning to the streets. The Baileys polo shirt is an outerwear piece for men with short sleeves. They look like T-shirts but have a collar like that of a shirt. With a folded neckline and sometimes with buttons. But where exactly does the garment come from? 

The history of the Bailey polo. 

The polo shirt is known as much worn and dressed casual wear. Nowadays the polo is accessible to everyone, but in the past polo shirt was only intended for the higher classes in society. The garment originated in the 1920s due to the clothing that was worn while playing tennis. The piece of clothing was designed by a tennis champion because he thought it was too hot to play tennis in long-sleeved shirts, which was therefore part of tennis clothing at the time. So it actually started for personal use and was only later marketed to the general public. 

Different models 

Baileys Polo shirts come in many different models nowadays. Some long sleeve shirts are also labeled as a polo. But in principle this term only applies to the short sleeve versions of these shirts. The different models often have to do with certain sports. For example, polo shirts are often seen in combination with tennis, hockey and similar sports. But you can also just wear them as everyday clothes. Above or in the pants, both look good and dressed.
