Polo shirt is one of the top-rated shirts for men in summer. Every gentleman should have at least 1 piece of polo shirt in his armoire as it is ideal for sport and casual wear. It also matches perfectly with many wardrobe items like chinos, shorts, and suit pants.
Polo shirts have always been so popular for decades. Do you know how to choose a high-end polo shirt that fits your body well?
In fact, the term high-class cannot be separated from numbers and proportions. Simply put, the better the fit, the more senior the cut., the higher class. Most of the polo shirts that are low quality have the following problems:
Shoulder Width
Problem:
① More than 2cm above the shoulder line, showing a thick back and a feeling of shrugging shoulders.
② Not reaching the shoulder line: the shoulder width is narrower, compressing the distance between the neck and the shoulder and showing a big head.
Solution:
Make Sure the shoulder line joints well with the shoulder peak point.
The Japanese polo shirt, which has become very popular in recent years, is known for its loose silhouette and heavyweight fabric. However, it is often paired with silhouette casual pants or shorts for styling because of the shape.
I would rather say it is a kind of special style than a high-end design.
Sleeve Length
Problems:
① from the elbow joint > 7 centimeters: sleeves are short and look constricted and petty.
② from the elbow joint <4cm: sleeves are long, easy to cock up a strong sense of stacking, very cumbersome.
Solution:
Keep the sleeve cuff around 7cm away from the elbow for a regular fit polo shirt, while 10-12cm for the slim fit polo shirt.
Body Width (bust & waist)
Problems:
① Loose fit and too boxy style: Chest and waist circumference of the polo shirt is 10cm wider or even more than body.
②Too Slim fit: Chest and waist circumference of the polo shirt is just 2-3 cm wider or even less than body.
Solution:
Chest & waist width can be 5-8cm larger than your body.
Garment Length
When you are standing and your hands are naturally vertical.
If the shirt’s length is not reached the wrist and more than 6cm from the wrist: Clothes length is too short, looks too formal.
If the shirt’s length is over the wrist and more than 3 centimeters away from the wrist: the clothes’ length is too long, looks draggy and cumbersome.
Solution:
Keep the length of the polo shirt balanced with the wrist, no more than 3 cm up and down.
