Samshield Show Shirts

Samshield’s short-sleeved models are mainly the Apolline Premium polo shirt with a deep V-placket and the Aliosha polo shirt with sleeves made entirely of mesh, which are embellished with Swarovski crystals. The long-sleeved models are the Aloise and Roxane Premium with a straight, high stand-up collar that Samshield has designed to meet Grand Prix requirements.

Roxy Premium and Roxy Premium Boreal have a fitted cut with a high collar, teardrop cut-out at the back of the neck and a magnetic collar fastening. The Boreal version also has mesh inserts at the lower back and on the sleeves for targeted ventilation.

The Premium models from Samshield are made from a technical Italian fabric that is breathable, very stretchy and quick-drying. According to the manufacturer it offers UPF 50+ (except on mesh sections), is crease-resistant and does not tend to pill.

Typical of Samshield are the details: Swarovski crest on the collar or on the chest, concealed zips with fine crystal embellishment and press studs or magnetic fastenings at the collar. Samshield also describes the Aloise as environmentally conscious and designed for durability.

Samshield offers its show shirts in sizes XXS to XL, including very small sizes such as XXS and XS. The shirts are cut for a close fit, and the Roxy Premium, for example, is explicitly fitted. If in doubt, try on two sizes.

According to the manufacturer, models such as Apolline Premium, Aliosha, Roxane Premium and Aloise are machine washable. Because of the crystal embellishments, choose a gentle cycle.
