Description

The Polaris Crew is the ideal Merino Wool shirt for any outdoorsman. Duckworth's proprietary Polaris fabric is designed to trap warm air in the miniature waffle knit construction, creating a lightweight yet incredibly warm layer. This Merino Wool shirt is meant to be worn directly on the skin, making the Polaris Crew the ideal crossover piece. On hotter days, wear it as a solo layer and let it breathe, and on colder days use it as a baselayer. This Montana-grown Merino Wool shirt also looks real sharp for a night out. The Polaris Crew is odor-free, itch-free, moisture wicking, performance-driven and versatile. American-made with Montana wool, this men's shirt is available in multiple colors.

Warm with some style…

"Really like this long sleeve… love the waffle warmth!!!! Only thing I don’t care for is the sleeve don’t stay up on my arms. . they always find a way to show themselves past the cuff of my shirt…"

This shirt is my second skin

"I have barely taken this shirt off since purchasing it."

— Joseph R. (5/5)

Great shirt

"Great shirt but it is a little baggy. If you want a tight fit i'd order a size smaller."

— Glenn E. (5/5)

Love the knit, cut not my favorite

"Love the waffle knit, sizing is a bit off for me. I'm a "smedium" type of person, and am generally a size medium in duckworth tops and had to downsize to a small as medium was way too big for length of shirt and sleeves. Small was snug and still the cut a little long, fit more like an underlayer for skiing than something I would wear alone"

— Aaron S. (4/5)

"6’ and 186lbs. Medium is the right size just know it runs long. Very comfortable. Seems well made. Will wear as a base layer bc it prob needs to be tucked in due to its length."

— Chris (4/5)

Q&A

Hoody option for men coming soon?
Yes, actually! Keep an eye peeled and subscribe to the newsletter to make sure you get the announcement.
The current picture description for the Cabin Red & Midnight Polaris have different styles. The Cabin Red has a stitch line at the cuffs, while the Midnight does not. The red also has a Duckworth tag sewn at the waist while the Midnight doesn’t. The red appears to have a more slim athletic waist, while the midnight appears to have a more relaxed waist line. I just ordered the last Medium Midnight Polaris, so I’m just wondering if it will match the midnight in the photo or will it have the red style.
Great questions and I'm sorry for the discrepancies on the website! The Midnight Polaris Shirts will have the larger cuffs like the Cabin Red photo and it will also have the Duckworth tag at the bottom of the shirt, but everything else should be the same!
For the sizing chart, do the chest measurements refer to the body measurement (my chest size) or the garment measurement? If the former, how much bigger is the garment measurement?
The chest refers to your body measurements!
Cannot safely wash at 30° ?
For the Polaris, we recommend hand washing in cold water and laying out to dry!
Is the shadow color a greenish color or grayish? Can’t tell by the picture
It is a medium shade of gray! I wouldn't say it has a green hue at all
