Hola, estoy traduciendo una lista de ropa y aparece el término "POLOS".

Creo que son "beatles", cuello alto pero no estoy segura y por lo mismo no sé el término en inglés.

Si alguien de buena voluntad quisiera ayudar se lo agradecería millones =)

Si te refieres al cuello del polo: polo neck




A polo neck (UK) (or turtle neck in the US) is a garment—usually a sweater—with a close-fitting, round, and high collar that folds over and covers the neck. It can also refer to type of neckline, the style of collar itself, or be used as an adjective ("polo necked").

A simple variant, the mock polo neck (or mock turtle neck) resembles the polo neck with the soft fold at its top and the way it stands up around the neck, but both ends of the tube forming the collar are sewn to the neckline. This is mainly used to achieve the appearance of a polo neck where the fabric would fray, roll, or otherwise behave badly unless sewn. The mock polo neck clings to the neck smoothly, is easy to manufacture, and works well with a zip closure. For these reasons, it is the most common neckline used for the sort of catsuit favoured by many in spandex fetishism which covers as much of the body as seamlessly as possible.

agree  Noni Gilbert Riley: Polo shirt, not polo neck - which is a different beast altogether. The classic one is the Lacoste.

Polo shirts, eternally in "classic" fashion, are as in this photo: http://www1.landsend.co.uk/pp/StylePage-025066_FH.html?mdiv=...

If it turns out that what appears in your list is a polo-neck, as popularised by the Beatles in the 60s, or James Bond in the films of that period, then they are also called turtlenecks (US English), and here is a photo: http://www1.landsend.co.uk/pp/StylePage-038637_FH.html?mdiv=...
OR
http://www.freemans.com/web/main/productdisplay.asp?An=681&N...

However, it is worth stressing that the latter is called "de cuello alto" in Spain, and not "polo". Confusing!
