How To Buy A Polo Shirt On Your Budget - Part 6
About this video
The Gentleman’s Gazette team provides a comprehensive guide to purchasing and evaluating polo shirts, covering color and pattern selection, price ranges, fabric quality assessment, fit considerations, and care methods to maintain longevity and color.
Key takeaways
- The Gazette team recommends building a polo shirt collection starting with solid colors in white, navy, and then expanding to reds, yellows, and greens before exploring patterns like horizontal stripes, checks, or diagonal stripes
- The Gazette team argues that most men will find quality 100% cotton polo shirts in the $30-$100 price range suitable for their needs, and emphasizes checking fabric softness, flexibility, fit, and construction details like single needle stitching and shirt collars over ribbed collars
- The Gazette team advises that all cotton polo shirts will fade over time, particularly darker colors, and recommends washing inside out and minimizing dryer use to maintain color and quality
