I used to wear a lot of Smedley and Sunspel. But the new kid on the block is Colhay's, and they are really good. Especially, if you are on the slimmer side, the cut is very spot on.
What's your budget?
If you're looking for a dressier look, these are hard to beat in the value-for-money category. The hidden button-down self collar is great.
edit: Look around and you can find a 3/$99 deal with free shipping. That's a steal for these.

For run of the mill stuff, Lands End is remarkably good. I like very much that they have a long size option, which means I can get a long enough torso (and sleeves for the winter) without going up to XXL. Now for graduate school winters, I can grab 8 long sleeve polos for the price of one bespoke shirt and cut amazing amounts off my cleaning bills.
LL Bean has long-fit shirts also, although I've come to prefer the Lands End flat weave.
For even better fit, I do custom order at Vastrm. Probably not possible to do so well now after Covid, but they used to send three different cuts to you in the mail and you could then work with them to get ideal shoulder placement, etc, and modify as necessary to get perfect size.
In days gone by, I used to be a Lacoste regular, but they kept moving production further away from France. They insist the cotton knit is the same, but I would need to be persuaded. I still have a few kicking around that were made in France-- if they start fraying more at the placket, I might have to try again to see how things are.
Ascot Chang also makes nice bespoke ones. They have my pattern down pretty well for other reasons, so all that is left to worry about is the collar design.
I quite like Spier and Mackay’s polos. Fit for me is good and I love the option of spread collar or button collar. There seems to be more structure in their collars which I think is needed when wearing under a blazer. I love Twillory’s dress shirts and I’m sure their polos are similarly nice. Another one to try.With summer approaching, I'm looking to stock up on some new polos. Recently, I've been a Lacoste fan. I like the feel of the fabric, and they have sizes that fit me (6"0", 235#). However, I thought I would see what else is out there. I used to wear Brooks Brothers too, but the new performance fabric is garbage. Drake's are very nice, but expensive. Spier & Mackay's are a little snug. Ralph Lauren's sizes and fits don't quite work for my body.
What brands are you guys wearing? Anything else worth looking into?

Good deal! Here are two polos I have from SM. I chose these for the bold color and collar options.I have a lot of S&M clothes, no polos though. I'll have a look!
I avoid bold colors but my skin color is similar to yours and I gotta say those two colors look good on you.Good deal! Here are two polos I have from SM. I chose these for the bold color and collar options.
Give them a try. Bold dark red is a nice place to start. It took my wife buying me a bold color piece and I was hooked…sometimes we gotta get out of our own heads.I avoid bold colors but my skin color is similar to yours and I gotta say those two colors look good on you.
That makes sense, as I can grab one for $75 in California.From everything I've heard, from folks in Europe and France, the made in France Lacoste fabric is definitely better.
