I confess that I'm too lazy to click through to all of the quoted pictures. It's a lame shortcoming of the current platform that pictures are "quoted" rather than quoted.

I voted for both winners and both are worthy. As we have the ability to change our votes, a winner could be decided by setting a time for members to change their vote, subtracting a vote to select the one we feel is best. Just a thought.

Edit: doesn't look like we can change our votes anymore.

thanks for all the votes gentlemen!

I haven't been in here for a while. Is it a two-week challenge nowadays?

Will try to get in touch with @chocsosa and check if he has any ideas.

I did a two week challenge because I didn't have time to make a shorter one, but I think it's open to however you want to go about it.

I'd like to see the polo challenge again sometime in summer, personally I feel polo's are more of a summer garment, as a more comfortable casual option under a sportcoat instead of a shirt. But nice results either way!

I was quite surprised that @Clouseau came in 2nd. His outfit was one of the most casual of the bunch by far. Is that why he came in second? Because most of us dressed the polo up too formally? Asking for a friend.

I want to thank everyone for your vote of confidence not only in this competition but throughout the years! I dont say it much and I should but you guys really do inspire me! Almost everyone in this competition has worn something or said something that has really resonated with me at some point and helped hone in on my own style.. notably, AAS for his daring takes on style (I've lived vicariously through you homey!), EFV's many different classy takes on CM, Colholm's great sports coat combos, upr-crust's great sense of style, My fellow tall men Calypso and Closseau showing how tall men get it right, Alocin's sartorial journey (where he has grown leaps and bounds) and thats just to name a few.. I should speak up more and will try too... but I just wanted to let you guys know that I appreciate the support through the years and in this competition. @calypso and I will work on something for the next competition that engages the community. Thanks again guys!
