Any opinions on these? They are cheap so if the fit is OK, I'm interested in getting a few.

I have a couple which I liked at first, but after a few washings look very sad. The collars kind of splay out and can't stand up on their own. Very cheap on sale though.

I really like the old Martin & Osa polos. Should have grabbed more before they went under.

I love them. They do get a bit shabby after lots of washing, but no more so than any other polo shirt I've owned, Lacoste and Polo RL included.

The Canvas ones are very good for the money. Decent enough slim fit and 100% cotton. Also, the mesh polo collars are way better than regular ones, however, they are ever-so-slightly roomier in the waist.

Lands end are OK but at more or less the same price point, LL Bean are
better, a bit heavier cotton knit, IMHO.

Disappointed, once again, with LE. They fit OK...but the fabric is just lackluster. One of the polos they sent me is stamped "M, Tailored Fit" but fits like a ******* XXL.

LE is really going down the *******. I'm returning these and buying Brooks Bros.

That's why you get LE Canvas and not regular LE.

I didn't really like the LE Canvas one I got, but this was back in the winter...I should try 'em again.
