Looking for a few polos for the summer. I'm really only familiar with RL and I was wondering if there any other brands worth considering. I generally prefer a shorter hem and more fitted style.

I'm actually really fond of the H&M slim stretch polos, for $12.90...

Call me mall-shopper but I just like my RL custom fit polos - especially the long sleeve ones. I have a Zanone, some RLPL, Lacoste, etc... but I actually prefer wearing my RL polos

Either I'm getting skinnier or their cuts are getting bigger, but lately RL Custom Fit has been a bit too big. I wish it was more fitted in the chest/waist and had a deeper collar or more buttons.

Did you try a smaller size?
How many buttons do you need on a polo shirt?

I'm already on small. As far as buttons go, I just want them to extend further down my chest so I can flash more chest hair
