Hey everyone,

I know there have been many different threads regarding the fit of each of the various polos. My dilemma is this: I have tons of Custom Fit Medium polos, but the chest size is too tight now, but the Classic fit M polos I bought are actually too big for me. Do any of you know whether a Classic fit S would be a better option?

Just get a different brand of polo. I can vouch for the fact that Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece slim-fit polos in Medium are larger in the chest than PRL Custom Fit M, but smaller in the chest than PRL Classic Fit M/Custom Fit L. I'm sure you could also check out Lacoste or Fred Perry.

Try a classic fit small. It's a fairly generous cut, for a small.
