Product Overview
Moving away from standard flat knits, the pointelle knit shirt introduces rich, architectural texture to men's summer wardrobes. The delicate openwork design allows the skin (or a base layer) to subtly show through, creating a confident, relaxed aesthetic that is highly sought after by premium menswear boutiques and luxury resort labels.

Advanced OEM: Mastering the Pointelle Stitch
Knitting "holes" into a garment intentionally without compromising its structural integrity is a complex technical challenge.
Precision Programming: Our advanced Shima Seiki machines can be programmed to create virtually any pointelle pattern you design in your tech pack—from subtle vertical perforated stripes to complex, all-over diamond meshes.
Structural Stability: We utilize specific yarn tensions around each pointelle eyelet to ensure the holes do not stretch, tear, or warp out of shape after washing or wearing.
Reinforced Edges: While the body remains highly breathable, we knit the collars, button plackets, and hems with a solid, tight structure to maintain a sharp, tailored silhouette.
Frequently Asked Questions (OEM/B2B FAQ)
Q1: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for custom pointelle knits?
A: Our standard MOQ is 100 pieces per style/color. We actively support brands launching specialized summer or resort capsules.
Q2: Can I design my own custom pointelle pattern?
A: Yes, absolutely. Send us your tech pack or a reference image of the openwork pattern you desire. Our technicians will digitize the design and program it into our knitting machines.
Q3: Is the pointelle fabric too fragile for machine washing?
A: While our pointelle knits are structurally sound, the openwork nature makes them susceptible to snagging on zippers or hooks in a washing machine. We strongly recommend hand washing or machine washing inside a fine mesh laundry bag on a delicate cycle.
Q4: Can we make this as a full button-down shirt instead of a polo?
A: Yes. We can easily modify the design to feature a full top-to-bottom button placket, creating a classic knitted resort shirt.
