I quite like the superdry ones.

Can’t beat a Slazenger polo for work! 😀

Dirt cheap and I don’t mind if they get wrecked.

Always hated them, just have vivid nightmares about cheap, plasticy workwear with a badly embroidered logo that has sticky out bits of plastic thread on the back that scratches your nipple all day.

I cannot even comprehend that there may be a comfy polo shirt in existence.

These are. Acceptable to be worn casually in the office or with jeans and shoes on a night out. I think polo tops make a statement beyond t shirts in the level class, but arent as formal as shirts

@JeansAndSheux on Twitter.

Polo jeans and brown shoes ffs

Cant see the issue myself

As for that photo bikebouy posted – he’s the sort who makes on and on think polo wearers are cocks.

I can’t work out if he has a really small body or a mahoosive head.

(The guy in the photo I mean.)

They ^^ are boots, I said Polo Shirts & Boots are acceptable.

This thread is funny

Cant see the issue myself

He’s missing about 50 tattoos, must be a photo from the 80s…

That fella looks like a golf club.

Simple google polo shirt – popped collar. Look at the pictures and tell me how many of those guys you’d go for a beer with VS how many you’d like to kick in the vagina.

Obviously only look for a maximum of 20 seconds or you’ll probably smash your device from “polo rage”

He’s missing about 50 tattoos,

No military Seiko either…

Middle class? I’d put my house on the fact that every single bell end involved in the kick off at Chelski, West Ham last night was wearing a Ralph Lauren polo shirt.

I once bought a box of navy blue polo shirts at an auction about 10 years ago. Everybody thought I only got one shirt ;).

They are only just running out.

20 odd shirts for £14.

Sorry Binners, but everyone is Middle Class* these days..

* mainly Lower Middle Class ;-).

Popped collar and tucked in. A new level of bellendery

At 42 years of age … a t-shirt without a collar is only for wearing under v-neck jumpers, on the beach or poolside. And so, a t-shirt with a collar is for all other casual scenarios.

It’s important to note any badge, emblem or graphic on either type t-shirt is buffoonery for a man of substance.

How do you not know this?

My rules..

One of the spectrum – Cotton Traders (usually matched with what the wearer would call “Slacks”) = BIG NO.

Middle of spectrum, I have some Fred Perry and Trojan Records polo shirts, single colour, small logo – Semi-smart for work, going out = YES

Other end of spectrum – Joules, etc – BIG NO, if the collar is turned up, then free reign to slap them savagely..

haha alot of grumpy old men on here..

I think with jeans brown shoes[b]boots or smart pumps[/b] and the Stw de facto Seiko they are pretty good middle age yet fashionable attire

I agree. The thing is that I have three Seikos, which one am I allowed to wear?

At 42 years of age …

A mere youngster!

I pretty much wear T-shirts and shorts every day regardless of the situation, work, home, social, gardening, gym, etc

Although, sadly, I will have to don a suit next week for some C level meetings with customers…

Chavs like them

When a man hits 40 he should seriously reconsider the continued wearing of t-shirts in any situation that does not involve a beach.

Considered… Nope… Carry on. 🙂

Yup. I’m 44 so perhaps its a demographic thing.

…for some C level meetings….

oooh check out Mr Middle Class Bigshot… 😉

I’m trying to work out what possible relevance this conversation could possibly have to anybody or anything anywhere in the entire universe…

Nope…. nothing

Carry on 🙂

Polo’s are acceptable if worn tucked in and stretched over a corpulent middle aged belly and topped off with a baseball/truckers cap with a monogram of a city you can’t point to on a map and a sports team you can’t name any members of.
its a popular look.

Aren’t we due the annual “what slipper thread” ?
That should give us an idea of who the 5-10 wearing plebs are and the “old duffers” with polo shirts.

I think there was a thread about Crocs a while ago. Surely there must be an algorithm we can run to profile these people.

If you’re over 40. Decent quality jeans. And a white T is all you need most of the time.
Only jewellery should be a wedding band and a nice watch. ( by nice I mean non beaten up – not nessesary expensive )

NOTE- the only thing worse than a polo is a pleblon replica footy shirt.

It is no longer the 1980’s and you were never Nick Kamen.

You are the Fonz and I claim my £5

You are Simon Cowell and I claim my primetime Saturday Night slot on ITV 😉

My work security badge 🙂

Begrudgingly, yes. So, a Fred Perry logo the same colour as the shirt, for example? Or, as above, the branded buttons on a Sunspel? Yes. Acceptable.

Thats a bit subtle isn’t it? How will customers know I work in PC World / B&Q /4-in-1 ChickenKebabPizzaCurry if the logo is the same colour as the shirt?

When you get to 40 it’s a fine line between cool and cock. Tats , adidas classics, polos, military style watches, caps , replica team kit, should all lead to waterboarding.

Says the man in a plain white t shirt.

Ya could go preppy..if in work and you are wearing jeans, keep the shirt untucked.. make sure it’s ironed too.

This is one of the coolest, neatest looking blokes out there ATM.

Unbutton shirt in daylight hours 😯

No sir
