The polo shirt is perhaps one of the most misunderstood garments in modern menswear. This soft-collared, short-sleeved top has had something of a bad rap in recent years – shunned by many for its alleged “uncoolness” and lack of discernible stylish outfit applications.
It would, however, be a crying shame to deny this classic piece a place in your wardrobe. The relaxing of dress codes in recent years has afforded the polo a new chance to shine. Now this sporting staple is just as at home worn alongside tailoring on a date night as it is with shorts to a summer gathering.
