Franchise Polo by Nike Medium Black
Overview
The Nike Franchise Polo in Medium Black is a wardrobe staple that blends the clean lines of a classic polo with the everyday comfort of breathable cotton. Designed for people who want a polished, versatile shirt for smart-casual settings—office casual, weekend outings, or a round of golf—this polo balances style and comfort. The textured cotton piqué knit gives structure and durability while remaining soft next to the skin. A three-button placket and subtle embroidered Swoosh keep the look understated and brand-forward. In black, it serves as an easy layering piece under a blazer or sweater and pairs neatly with chinos, jeans, or shorts, making it a practical pick for travelers and anyone who prefers low-maintenance, refined basics.
Key Features

- Placket: three-button placket for adjustable ventilation and a traditional polo look
