well yeah, if you wear a polo like you're Mozart at sea, it's gonna be cool or at least unusual, but if you wear a polo like nicelynice in high school...

surprise, folks, it's not the item, but how you wear it

I just don't like them because it's what everybody wore in high school when they were going out. Like the US has the "going out shirt" that's a ****** button down from express. In Australia it was a nautica, Hilfiger or RL polo. And then you had the lads/chavs that just wore them all the time.
I have 1 polo that's that's a faded indigo and I wear it about 1 x year.

i want to see a tennis match where both players are wearing drop crotch trousers, just because it would be hilarious to watch them (try to) move

I have tennis classes once a week and play tournaments every now and then, and I usually wear drop crotch sweatpants. It`s no impediment to playing. It`d probably be a pain with dropcrotch trousers, of course

I just wear em as tshirts basically. Half my tops are polos because I liked the fit and price and bought a bunch, the rest are crews and V's. I never really thought much about it, other than that they're as casual as a tshirt so never to try and 'dress one up'.


I'll keep playing around but probably won't post too many around here unless I think it's working. Or hell, could be a new challenge for the WAYW'
