I think that whole stripes thing is a dumb barometer in any case. Put it on and see if it looks good on you. Some stripe patterns are flattering and some aren't.
I think I tried them all on and none of them really work on me, but they do on other guys.
True...I suppose it depnds on what type of build you have. I have a somewhat muscular frame, so the hori. stripes make my upper chest and shoulders look large and built. I NEVER wear vertical stripes, except for dress shirts. They give a taller appearance, but I find on polos etc they look stupid. Solids of course are always a safe bet. If you have a flabby chest and mid section, you can try hori. stripes, but youre right it may not work.
I can't remember the last time I saw a vertical striped polo.
