Is wearing large polo shirts considered tacky/unstylish?

post #1 of 23
Thread Starter 
Hi everyone, I'm a 22-year-old male who's quite skinny and is fond of wearing polo shirts because they seem somewhat more fashionable than a regular t-shirt due to their collars. Anyway, when I was browsing through a small and local clothing store in town I happened to spot some discounted Southpole brand polo shirts similar in size and color to the ones below: I realize that most popular brands of polo shirts (i.e. Lacoste, Ralph Lauren, Fred Perry, etc.) tend to be much smaller and tighter, so would it be considered too "ghetto"/tacky for a regular suburbanite, 5 ft. 7 male such as myself to be wearing such clothing? I ask this because when I was looking through those kinds of "hip-hop style" polo shirts, my friends claimed that they would look way too "ghetto" for me. I also ask because when I was browsing through some archived threads such as this one: http://www.styleforum.net/showthread.php?t=127643 some people seemed to disdain those kind of large-sized polo shirts. Thanks for any information provided.

As a small guy myself, (5'8", 140), nothing looks worse than swimming in a shirt that's too big for you. It doesn't look good on the "ghetto hip hop" guys you're referring to, and it'll look worse on you.

I'll just do you a favor and let you know that this look is horrible on anyone. Anyone replying here is either smarter than I - not feeding the troll, or is sarcastic as hell because your new topic thread is so bad. Do not ever wear anything like this, ever, for any reason.

You'll look mad fresh. Just remember to wear two polos, roll up the sleeves and pop both collars.
