Polo Shirts

[DPTC]

Are these in fashion these days? Do you have any?

I only have 2 cos I don't tend to wear them much, however they do smarten things up a bit whilst keeping things relaxed.

Great for the warm weather. Sunspel would be my recommendation.

I like Fred Perry polos. Last for ever and a nice fit.

Like you say they are a bit smarter.

Loathe them. We used to have to wear them at work as part of the uniform but I persuaded the boss to go for proper shirts instead.

I like polo shirts. A step up in smartness from a t-shirt without the ironing overhead that comes with a proper shirt.
Currently wearing British Racing Green ones which I like. My Fat Face ones were good quality too but they are looking dated a few years on. I have a couple of Voi ones which are quite tight fitting and already losing buttons and a Jack Wills one which is lovely quality but the collar is too big - I don't want to look like Harry Hill.

Would only consider wearing one in the absolute hottest of weather as I abhor and will not wear a plain t-shirt. Otherwise, always a proper shirt, be it long-sleeved or short. Tucked in too.

Classic polo shirts are beyond fashion but retailers insist on trying to 're-image' them with stupid designs or writing all over them to make them 'on trend'. Stick with the old school standard and you have casual with a hint of smart thrown in...YMMV though

I like them but find the massive circular hole in the middle impractical

Have 30 of them, but wear them only when it's hot with shorts.

Oh no you didn't.....at least I'm going to pretend you didn't type that. :icon_rolleyes:

I prefer shirts, but I do have a few polos and rugby tops for when I want to be really casual. I don't wear round necked, collarless t-shirts unless I am running. They don't suit me.
