In an effort to pare down some space in my closet, I’ve given my polos a pretty hard look. At this point in life, I have basically replaced almost all t-shirt situation with polos. With that said, I don’t have nearly as many polos as I do button ups. What I’m getting at is that…
In part two of the coverage of my trip up to Lynnville, TN, we’re going to cover a very unique aspect of the Colonel Littleton brand. The thought of a ‘man cave’ in the traditional sense has never really made any sense to me. A big TV, a pool table, and a bar in a…
We sold our condo on the Westside and move barely outside of the perimeter (OTP) about a year and a half ago. Since then, I have fully embraced the suburb lifestyle. What do I mean by ‘suburb lifestyle’? I mean the concept of overbuying. That doesn’t mean we exclusively buy expensive things, it means that…
Every once in a while, I’ll stumble across something that I know needs to get on the blog ASAP. I came across an image of this 1995 BMW M5 Touring Wagon, and started digging. It’s known as Elekta, and recently sold for ~$120K. The the full article is on Bring A Trailer, which is where…
As a savvy shopper, I rarely buy anything at full retail price. I’m also not a ‘trendy’ person, so I buy things that will last for years, focusing instead on style and construction. Add those two together, and there are some excellent online deals to be found on Ebay, Etsy, and at second-hand stores. Want…
Head’s up, folks… In case you missed it, Michael Bastian did a collection for Nordstrom, and his spread collar dress shirts are the highlight of the bunch. A trim fit, good fabric, and seriously deep spread collar. There are quite a few in the collection but these are my favorite: These are the casual-esque dress…
Being that I’m going to be a father in a few weeks, doing this post was a bit different this year. I’ve always enjoyed finding just the right gift for my dad, as well as for my father in law. They are both GREAT Americans, and always appreciate a good gift, as well as time…

Great list. I think B Draddy certainly deserves a nod. Nephew of Izod founder and his gear is beginning to show up in golf shops such as Peachtree, Capital City, et al,which is all the street cred you need.
I hear good things…
Great list! Only addition I’d make is the Ralph Lauren Polo off the Goodwill rack. I pick them up cheap and run them hard.
Oh yeah – I’ve got a stack of beaters from Goodwill that I wear all the time. For $5 a pop, they are almost disposable.
Lacoste gets an honorable mention? That places this list near suspect, but in the world of personal preferences well done. Sounds like I need to check out Holderness & Bourne.
Lacoste gets an honorable mention mainly because they are cut short. If they were 3″ longer, they’d have a prime spot on the list. Yes -check out H&B.
anyone have any feedback on smashburn’s polos?
Very pique, and very thick.
What?!?! No Johnnie-O?? The discussion of polos these days starts and ends with them.
There seems to be religion (or brand reps) around Johnnie-O…
Peter Millar…….now sold @ The Master’s, need I say more?!?!?!
Seconded – how is Peter Millar not on this list?
Orvis’ polo is cut like a trash bag.
I got one last weekend, and it was a little better…I believe they updated the fit. Don’t quote me, but it seemed that way to me.
I’ll check them out again. It has been a few years. I love the look and price point of most of their clothes, but they never fit me right. I’m 5’10, 195 and was swimming in their mediums. And they don’t make a small. The only clothes I’ve gotten there in the last 5 years have been for my 70-year-old father.
Echoing the comments of PLF3, I picked up a B Draddy at the Wells Fargo Championship and it is one of the softest polos I have ever worn,
Wearing a B Draddy today from Chicago Golf Club, along with @hbgolfusa clearly best in the market
