21 September 2026: This Autumn-Winter ’26, U.S. Polo Assn., India’s leading casualwear brand and the official brand of the United States Polo Association (USPA), brings its American sport heritage into a new season with a collection shaped by innovative fabrication, varsity influences, winter-ready transitional layering, contemporary silhouettes and everyday functionality. Across Men’s, Women’s, Kids, Innerwear, Footwear and Handbags, brand favorites are refreshed through winter-ready knits, textured corduroys, versatile flannels and garment-overdyed fabrics, alongside new colours, textures and silhouettes, creating versatile wardrobes for the season that bring together comfort, functionality and seasonal versatility.
Men’s: A New Season of American Classics
The U.S. Polo Assn. Men’s AW ’26 collection marks the fifth season of its celebrated collaboration with HH Padmanabh Singh (Pacho), the brand’s Global Brand Ambassador, setting the tone with an autumnal palette, alongside transitional and winter-ready knitwear and layering.
Varsity influences return through contemporary interpretations of classic American codes, while indigo emerges as a defining seasonal story across polo shirts, sweatshirts, jackets and denim.
The season also spotlights one of U.S. Polo Assn.’s most recognizable categories – the polo shirt. Under the campaign callout “THE POLO SHIRT: AN ICON BORN FROM THE GAME™,” the category is refreshed through new styles, silhouettes and fabrications, with full-sleeved polo shirts offering a winter-ready take on the icon.
Shirting spans corduroys, flannels and garment-overdyed styles, while denim takes centre stage with MASON, a new straight-fit silhouette, and BLAKE, a new boot-cut fit, alongside the continued Dr. Denim and World Denim programmes. Dr. Denim celebrates Japanese denim craftsmanship through a blend of tradition, innovation and sustainability, featuring irregular slub yarns, rich indigo shades and tonal variation across the warp for distinctive texture and a character inspired by 19th-century denim. World Denim brings together three distinct denim traditions, each rooted in its own heritage and character, and reimagines them through the USPA lens with a focus on authentic craftsmanship, texture and modern design.
Innerwear brings together everyday comfort, premium fabrics and effortless style, with high-performance innerwear designed to deliver comfort that moves seamlessly through every part of the day.
Women’s: Two Expressions of the Modern USPA Woman
For AW ’26, U.S. Polo Assn. Womenswear explores its sport heritage through two distinct stories – The Traveller’s Diary and The Prep Club.
The Traveller’s Diary draws on exploration and freedom, with relaxed silhouettes and everyday separates creating a grounded, nature-inspired wardrobe designed for the season.
The Prep Club merges the sport of polo with modern varsity dressing, bringing together New York attitude and polo tradition. Sporty silhouettes and varsity-inspired details create a confident, contemporary expression of the brand’s heritage.
Together, the two stories reflect the versatility of the AW ’26 U.S. Polo Assn. woman: adventurous, spirited and contemporary. As the season progresses the new collection will arrive in stores, ushering in a fresh season of American classics.
Kids: Americana, Sport and Winter Dressing
U.S. Polo Assn. Kids translates the brand’s signature spirit into a youthful AW ’26 wardrobe, beginning with an Americana-inspired back-to-school story complemented by varsity-led styling.
As the season progresses, versatile oxford shirts and polo shirts feature across the collection, while indigo takes centre stage in denim, denim-collar polo shirts, denim shirts and graphic polo tees.
For the first time, USPA Kids introduces a dedicated corduroy collection, adding a sophisticated winter texture while retaining a playful, age-appropriate feel. Festive dressing follows with shirts, blazers and elevated occasion wear, before transitioning into a Christmas-inspired holiday story featuring festive hues and graphics.
Hooded shackets and flannels bring a contemporary update to winter shirting, while USPA Sport for Kids adapts the sporty aesthetic and casual silhouettes of the men’s collection for younger wardrobes. Sweaters, sweatshirts and jackets complete the winter offering.
Footwear & Handbags: Sport-Inspired Design Meets Everyday Functionality
Extending the brand’s sport ethos beyond apparel, the AW ’26 Footwear & Handbags collection combines performance-led comfort, heritage-inspired design and everyday versatility for both men and women.
For men, ALL DAY-TECH focuses on lightweight construction and all-day comfort, while ALL DAY SPORT offers streamlined performance designed to transition from active mornings to workdays and casual settings. RETRO SNEAKER draws from vintage running shoes, while RETRO TURF takes cues from classic turf sneakers with studded soles for grip and traction. CAR SNEAKER adds a dynamic, driving-inspired interpretation through sleek silhouettes.
For women, ALL DAY SNEAKERS and RETRO SNEAKERS combine everyday comfort with sport-inspired design, while SIGNATURE COLLECTION and HORSEBIT COLLECTION offer elevated interpretations of the brand’s heritage across sneakers, flats and ballerinas. Coordinated handbags—including totes, satchels, slings and crossbody styles—complete the offering.
Mr. Amitabh Suri, CEO, U.S. Polo Assn. India, said, “AW ’26 represents an evolution of U.S. Polo Assn.’s American sport heritage, bringing together the styles our consumers know with a renewed focus on innovation, comfort and contemporary relevance. This season, we have placed greater emphasis on fabric innovation and textures that enhance functionality and versatility, while our menswear and womenswear collections explore distinct expressions of the U.S. Polo Assn. spirit. From refined American classics and varsity influences to winter-ready transitional layering and modern silhouettes, the collection is designed to move seamlessly with the way consumers dress today.”
The U.S. Polo Assn. Autumn-Winter ’26 Collection is now available across exclusive brand stores, USPA.in, leading marketplaces and select shop-in-shops. The collection will continue to unfold through the season, with new stories and winter-focused styles to be introduced in the coming months.
