Manchester City and Portuguese football powerhouse Ruben Dias knows a thing or two about keeping cool under pressure — both on and off the pitch. Recently spotted in a full Wax London fit, Dias delivered a masterclass in effortless summer dressing, proving that laid-back style can still pack a sartorial punch. The best part? Both pieces he wore come in under £100, making them the ultimate style steals for men looking to elevate their warm-weather wardrobe without breaking the bank.
The look pairs the Naples Pale Blue Textured Knitted Polo Shirt (£82.50) with the Tyne Natural Chalk Stripe Trousers (£93.75) — two pieces that capture Wax London’s signature approach to modern menswear: relaxed, wearable, and endlessly versatile. Together, they hit that sweet spot between smart and casual, creating a look that works as well for city strolls as it does for sunset drinks.
The Naples Polo — A Summer Essential with a Twist
The knitted polo has had something of a renaissance in recent years, moving from retro relic to modern-day menswear staple. The Naples Pale Blue Textured Knitted Polo Shirt takes this timeless silhouette and gives it a fresh, contemporary update.
Crafted from a soft, breathable cotton blend, the polo’s textured knit adds subtle depth and visual interest, setting it apart from the flat, standard versions you’ll find elsewhere. The pale blue hue feels instantly summery, light, fresh, and perfect for catching the sunlight without absorbing too much heat.
What makes the Naples truly special is its versatility. You can dress it up with tailored trousers for a refined look, or keep it casual with chinos or shorts. Dias wears it somewhere in between, letting the polo’s clean lines and tactile finish do most of the talking. It’s the kind of top that looks just as good solo as it does layered under a lightweight jacket or overshirt when the temperature dips in the evening.
The Tyne Trousers — Relaxed Tailoring Done Right
On the bottom half, Ruben opts for the Tyne Natural Chalk Stripe Trousers, a relaxed-fit style that proves tailoring doesn’t have to mean stiff fabrics or restrictive cuts. Made from a breathable, summer-ready cotton-linen blend, these trousers have a naturally airy feel, making them perfect for warm days.
The neutral chalk stripe pattern adds a dash of sophistication while keeping things casual. They’re cut to sit comfortably on the waist with a straight leg, creating a silhouette that’s both flattering and easy to wear. Whether you pair them with loafers, trainers, or sandals, they’ll hold their shape and style from morning to night.
What’s clever about the Tyne is that they bring a sense of polish without demanding too much effort — the ultimate summer win for men who want to look put-together without feeling overdressed.
Why This Look Works
The combination of a textured pale blue polo and striped trousers hits that perfect intersection of light layering, tonal dressing, and subtle pattern play. The textures keep the outfit from feeling flat, the colours keep it breezy, and the fit ensures it’s comfortable enough for all-day wear.
Ruben’s styling also taps into a broader trend we’ve seen in recent summers: the rise of smart-casual street style. Gone are the days when summer dressing meant nothing but T-shirts and shorts, modern menswear is all about finding those hybrid pieces that balance form and function. This Wax London look does exactly that.
Get the Look for Under £200
One of the most impressive things about this fit? The price tag. With both the Naples Polo (£82.50) and the Tyne Trousers (£93.75) coming in under £100 each, it’s proof that sharp, considered style doesn’t have to come with a luxury-level cost.
For men building a summer wardrobe, this is the kind of look worth investing in, versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched with what you already own, while still feeling fresh and fashion-forward.
Final Thoughts:
Ruben Dias might be known for his defensive strength on the football pitch, but off it, his style is just as commanding. By keeping things simple, breathable, and well-fitted, he shows us that great summer style is about more than just trends, it’s about confidence, comfort, and knowing what works for you.
Wax London’s Naples Polo and Tyne Trousers are the perfect building blocks for that approach, offering quality craftsmanship, a modern edge, and price points that make them even more appealing. Whether you’re strolling through the city or heading out for dinner, this is summer dressing at its finest
