Polos for Tall and Athletic Builds
Wondering if anyone has found a polo that is very slim in the waist but wider in the shoulders and sleeves. I also have a problem of the sleeves being too short on many brands. I've tried lululemon (too boxy in waist), bonobos (sleeves too short), nike (too boxy in waist), peter millar (slim fit sleeves too short, classic fit way too boxy).
The best that work are the Mizzen & Main Phil Mickelson polos, but they are discontinued. Would love to hear if anyone has any suggestions.
Hi VP in RE - Comm, just trying to help:
More suggestions...
You're welcome.
James Perse if you've got an overall bigger build and want to with a more premium brand. They're fantastic quality and fit great. I've got really broad shoulders and a longer torso (with a wider waist than I want but working on that) and these fit great, if not a little loose now with my weight loss work. I always used to buy the size 5 which was their largest but would go down to a 4 now and probably recommend that for you. I use these for our casual days at work as well so they are actually good.
Holderness & Bourne have my favorite polos - they make Mizzen+Main seem like Walmart branded polos.
Other options would be Greyson, B Draddy (best fabric), and Peter Millar (athletic fit).
Not OP but these look awesome and I bought two to test out after reading this comment. Will report back, thanks for the rec!
Reporting back - These are amazing. Wore the first two and bought two more yesterday
sounds lame but jcrew polos fit me pretty good.
bonobos polos sleeves are WAAAY too short. I dont know how men fit in those things.
Unfortunately we live in America. Not many consumer brands catered to dudes that are ripped like us, instead lots of companies advertise their shirts as “slimming”! Or some other bullshit like how true classic advertises.
Try tommy Hilfiger I know now days they are considered as clothing for rappers and street kids but you might use them for unformal meetings, I am 191 cm with wide shoulders and they seem to fit just perfect, their price is also not that expensive
criquet slim fit
State & Liberty - pretty sure one of their founders is a former NHL guy.
