slim fitting polo shirts

[seoulfully]

could you fellow SFers help out a new member and toss out some suggestions for slim fitting polos? thanks.

H&M polos are pretty slim-fitting and not too expensive either. Penguin polos are decent quality and slim fitting as well, costs more though, but well worth it.

[go_for_me]

H&M has slim fitting polos, they're super cheap. Not the best quality but hey, the damn things are like less than 10 bucks.

Abercrombie & Fitch has some slim fitting polos.. I think they're a little too long but whatever.

if it feels good, we want more

American Apparel polos. The pique polos are great!

Another vote for H&M... I picked up 2 of them and they're ok... they were like only $15 or $20 I believe... disposable clothing... heh...

Ralph Laurens "custom fit" polos are also nice. LOTS of colors available..

For something a little more expensive you could try Polo Custom Fit, a slim body with a long cut. If you're a fan of Lacoste, the retro fit polos (the 3 button ones) fit slim and snug to the body as well.

Ralph Lauren makes custom fits that suit me quite nicely.

I second the recommendation of Penguin polos. I'm wearing one today and it's fucking perfect.

[cromulated]

yup, if you're looking for slim, penguins fit the bill, much more so than polo custom fit or h&m

I'm a huge fan of Fred Perry and Lacoste polos. The Fred Perry sizing is a little unpredictable, I have some smalls which fit perfectly (usually the made in England ones), and some which really stretched out at the bottom. I always wash them in cold water and always hang dry them.

Lacoste is much more reliable. Size 3 (XS) fits slim as hell and feels great. They hold up to a lot of wash and wear.

Also, I picked up an amazing polo shirt at Marc Jacobs in Boston. It has an embroidered rat for a logo (his signature "stinky rat") and only cost $35! It fits great and looks dope.

Cheers,

Schatz

Abercrombie is slim fitting and high quality.

Is this a test? (:

I don't know about you, but my size 3 (xs) Lacoste polo was HUGE for me when I put it on (that's the reason I'm selling it)

I'm waiting for my American Apperal polo to come in the mail, I really hope those are slim fit >_>

I'm like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin'

I 2nd the AF. The fratboy stigma is the only thing that keeps me from getting Abercrombie Polos. They are pretty nice.

honey, you're my religion

Even though you haven't yet expanded

To include a heaven after

Even though I have demanded it

[john11f]

definitely fred perry. the made in england ones.

agh! not ralph lauren custom fit polos- I was at ralph lauren in selfridges this week for about an hour trying them on and came away with nothing, they're just wierd fitting- really slim in the shoulders then loose on the body and with a stupid flappy bit at the back. really friendly staff, rubbish polos

oh yeah I forgot, I love Penguin polos too, slim fit and short enough so they look nice untucked (is there such a verb?)...

and my regular lacoste polos aren't slim AT ALL... I think they fit kindda funny actually... I washed and dried mine so I thought the dryer f'ked them up, picked up another one, a size smaller too (S), still fit kindda funny, I will go to the lacoste store to try out XS, but I doubt that would fit me... Hopefully this S one will shrink a tiny bit after a warm wash so they'll fit better... otherwise I'm sticking to Penguin's, they're a lot cheaper too!

Except that's an adjective.

Message board grammar nazis. Worse than the spelling police.

LOL, sorry... should've just said "word"... LOL...

[horriblyjollyjinx]

brooks brothers slim fit polos are great. Small fits like a Lacoste 2 and the material is very similar to that used by RL. Good price too, 3 for $79 or something?

dontcaretoomuchforcrap CANT SKATE!!

[Tubby]

If I wear a size 2 in Lacoste, what size should I go for with Penguin?

[ayn]

Penguin sizes are funny, I wear from S to M to L, depending on style... you really have to go try them all out before at a store (take notes, so u can order them online when u see them for cheap)...

luckily Penguin polos are everywhere from Nordstrom to Urban Outfitter to Off 5th...
