Polanex – a legend of Polish tailoring, which has been sewing its history in materials and details for more than eight decades. Now the brand has presented its new autumn-winter collection, Polanex since 1945. The collection includes 45 shirts that encapsulate the character of the brand: the precision of the masters of the needle, the nobility of European fabrics and the strength of craftsmanship emerging from the sewing room in Gniezno.
The history of Polanex began on 5 April 1945, when a plant weaving various forms was opened in post-war Gniezno. Out of its halls came towels and mattresses, uniforms and aprons, trousers, caps, dresses and even beachwear – a full range of textiles that accompanied people at work and at leisure. However, 1951 brought a breakthrough: the company bet everything on shirts, which quickly became its calling card. Six years later, in 1957, the name Polanex was born – a symbol of exports “from the lands of the Polans” and at the same time a sign of ambitions reaching beyond the local market.
The latest collection is divided into four main lines: Karpacz, Pomegranate, Autumn Business and Checked. Each captures a different aspect of the contemporary men’s wardrobe – from urban elegance to comfortable shirts in soft flannel. Polanex is going back to its roots – creating shirts that not only follow trends, but above all represent the quality, durability, and craftsmanship that has been missing in Poland.
After the debut Spring/Summer collection, our second collection – Autumn/Winter – is a natural continuation of this philosophy. It features as many as 45 models that have the potential to redefine the concept of the Polish premium shirt,” says Jan Sobusiak, president of Polanex.
Karpacz line
This is the most daring proposal in the new Polanex autumn-winter 2025 collection. It is dominated by energetic shades of orange inspired by Polish mountain climates, which break the winter greyness and bring fresh dynamism to the men’s wardrobe. Made from premium European fabrics – including fleecy flannels, tactile herringbone fabrics and checks reminiscent of mountain trails – the shirts are enriched with unique details such as contrast stitching, making them a distinctive choice for modern men who value style and comfort.
Pomegranate line
A line that defines contemporary smart casual, ideal for formal meetings and those of a more casual nature. The navy blue, in a variety of shades from deep, almost black to slightly bleached tones, emphasises the versatility and timelessness of this colour scheme. These are shirts created for everyday elegance, ideal for the office, for a night out or for travelling.
Autumn Business line
A tribute to the classics. Subtle micro patterns, classic oxfords and flannels in muted colours – all designed with the business dress code in mind. The shirts in this line go perfectly with both a suit and a casual jacket. The models are distinguished by their precision workmanship and the details that determine the character of the entire outfit. Everyone should have a shirt from this line in their wardrobe.
Checked line
There is no autumn without the check. Polanex offers it in a modern edition – from timeless, toned down to bolder colour combinations. These are shirts for everyday urban life, but also for weekend outdoor activities. The collection also includes flannel proposals, which are proof of Polanex’s continuation of authentic, quality tailoring.
Sizing and comfort
The entire collection has been designed in a clear and intuitive sizing – all shirts have a universal length, so they can be worn with trousers or left out to create looser styles.
Each model is designed and sewn in Poland using European materials from reliable suppliers. Each shirt is made in Poland – in the sewing room in Gniezno, which has been creating shirts for the world’s biggest fashion houses for eight decades. Today, Polanex is consistently building its brand, drawing on tradition but also responding to the needs of modern men. It’s a return to the brand’s DNA – craftsmanship that guarantees durability, comfort and class in every detail and in every stitch.
However, this is not the end of the novelties. Very soon, the brand will present a new-generation line of shirts, designed for maximum comfort, innovative materials and a modern lifestyle.
