City Polo x POLO South Africa: Where Sundays Feel Like Polo — A Defining Collaboration in Sport, Style, and South African Spirit

There’s a new rhythm redefining South African Sundays — refined, intentional, and quietly powerful. It’s a movement where sport meets style, and culture meets class. It’s not just about brunch or polo — it’s about belonging.

City Polo, the name transforming contemporary polo culture across Africa, has officially announced a landmark collaboration with POLO South Africa, the country’s iconic heritage fashion brand. The partnership positions POLO as the Official Apparel Partner of City Polo — a move that blends sport, sophistication, and South African identity into a single, seamless lifestyle moment.

And make no mistake — this isn’t just another merch drop. It’s a cultural statement.

A Collaboration Rooted in Legacy and Modern Luxury

At the intersection of heritage and modern luxury, City Polo x POLO South Africa unveils a limited-edition capsule collection that effortlessly bridges timeless tailoring with the confident energy of a new generation.

From the polo pitch to the brunch table, every piece tells a story — of excellence, identity, and understated opulence. It’s where elegance is expressed with restraint and confidence, where heritage meets innovation, and where every Sunday begins with Polo.

“Polo is more than a sport. It’s a lifestyle, a legacy, and for us, a canvas,” says Nicci Lee Watson, Head of Marketing & Communications at City Polo. “This partnership is about reclaiming space in elegance, creating new codes of what ‘elite’ looks like, and inviting the next generation to dress the part.”

A Legacy Brand Reinvented for a New Era

Founded in 1976, POLO South Africa has long defined the essence of South African style — classic, confident, and authentic. From Sandton boardrooms to Soweto sidewalks, the brand has woven itself into the fabric of the nation’s culture.

Now, through this collaboration, POLO returns to the turf — not merely as an outfitter, but as a storyteller. Together with City Polo, the brand expands the meaning of the game, transforming polo from an elite pastime into a canvas for collective pride and cultural expression.

This partnership redefines what it means to live luxuriously in South Africa today: accessible, aspirational, and proudly local.

Feels Like Polo: A Brunch Beyond the Ordinary

To mark this collaboration, the brands will debut “Feels Like Polo”, an exclusive brunch experience that embodies everything the partnership stands for — refined leisure, quiet influence, and authentic African luxury.

Hosted at the serene Inanda Polo Club, Feels Like Polo brings together the continent’s most discerning visionaries, creators, and tastemakers — not to be seen, but to belong.

Here, open lawns replace velvet ropes. Champagne flows with intention. Conversations carry purpose. It’s the kind of Sunday that feels less like an event and more like a ritual — a celebration of African excellence on its own terms.

Each edition of Feels Like Polo will serve as a gathering of legacy brands and next-generation creators — where style meets heritage, and time slows just enough to remind us that luxury isn’t loud; it’s lived.

The Future, Dressed

This spring, the City Polo x POLO South Africa capsule collection will take center stage at the inaugural Feels Like Polo brunch — a debut that marks a defining moment in the evolution of South African sport, style, and storytelling.

This is Polo, remixed.

This is South Africa, refined.
