Just got my two polos (pink and white) a few days ago. The collar is an absolute work of art. I still feel that a two-button/shorter placket would be better (especially for shorter guys), but it is definitely a really nice shirt.

Now to decide whether I want to cop some other colors, thanks again Kent!

btw - for those who haven't clicked on Kent's page today.. The new polos and restock are available Over the last weeks, I was pretty sure that the Royal Blue would be my first try-out.. But after seeing the Lavender Polo - I was more like:

Thanks for the quick response. I am planning to pick up a couple polos soon.

Just got mine today and very impressed as expected.

However I feel it's a bit long on me. Anyone know to shrink just a bit without damaging the material?

For reference I got an XL and I'm 6'1" ~180 lbs

You can put it in the dryer on medium heat. If that's not enough, try high heat. Someone told me they did that and it shrank up a bit in length but not much in other dimensions. Or you can take it to a tailor to shorten it. I am considering shortening all sizes by one inch. If you have an opinion either way, post here or email me: [email protected] Yes, new polos are here:

I found the length after drying once on medium was pretty spot on. That said, an inch shorter wouldn't be a deal breaker. So count me as an "either or" vote, or split the difference and knock off a half inch, with a note to dry once if you want to length to come up a bit more.

Just placed my order for two more. Did the light blue sell out in L already?
