    What the hell is wrong with wearing a polo?

    Now one with a giant logo on it, okay I get that. All 3 buttons down, or all 3 buttons up? Okay, dorky.

    But a plain polo, no logo, with 1 or 2 buttons clipped up? That's class.

    I like a good ralph lauren polo, but I hate collars in general, so I typically don't wear them. Now back in the day I was all about this look on a Friday night cruising North Oaks Mall LOL

    Yeah, it was hard sledding before we had Hangout trolls 24/7. I tell you what.

    What am I supposed to wear besides a polo though?

    I don’t wear them to work but I’ll wear them when I want to look presentable but not want to wear a full sleeve because it’s hot and can’t wear a teeshirt.

    I feel like those are more tropical than casual. Even Brooks Bros sells polos, not short sleeve button ups.

    I have work long sleeve shirts, patterned long sleeve shirts where I roll up the sleeves, plain polos, and graphic tees (Rockets). Each serves a different scene. But I have 0 short sleeve full buttons, and I have not had one in 20+ years.

    No work (depending on how high on the boss level you are)...but they're perfect for weekend gatherings, bbq's, watching kids play sports, etc...

    If you wanted to go full-on Dad-Mode, get a couple of the "fishing shirts" from Columbia or Magellan.

    Unless I'm wearing a coat & tie, or it's cold as hell, I'm wearing a short sleeve button up. Sometimes with jeans, sometimes with shorts.

    I pretty much just wear jeans, shorts, polos and t-shirts. As long as I'm not nekkid scaring the neighborhood and wildlife, I'm good. :cool: I've thought about buying some of those cuban shirts - guavacadobanana shirts or whatever they're called. Are those in? Hopefully not, so I can get them cheap.
