Yes I would like to spend hours upon hours trying on and modeling clothes in a store. Maybe next time I'll take a couple of my girlfriends to offer up their opinions.



what are you talking about?

i go to academy, i look at the stuff i want.
i walk to the dressing room.
crap. too loose.
crap. too tight.
that fits.
leave and pay my money.
this takes no longer than 20 minutes. and in no way makes you gay or a male wannabe model.

the fact is you couldn't spend 5 minutes to make sure something fit, then got home and are angry that something you didn't test out didn't fit

entitlement generation or some such BS is going to be the end of us.

Negative. I have probably bought 30 or so large classic fit polos through the years. They all fit exactly the same. Trying them on is a waste time


Well I definitely believe that. I'm saying there's a big difference in the long-sleeve vs short-sleeve. There are also some short-sleeves that are different from the "classic" solid short-sleeves. For instance, these may fit differently

4 minutes and 30 seconds is my time limit for one single task.

I understand this sentiment.

It doesn't apply here.

Polo is crap, well it's not crap but it is close for what you are paying for it.

i do agree with this sentiment. their clothes fit awesome when i was fat and it was great to be able to wear Smalls and Mediums when i was really a fatty. now that i really wear smalls they're too big.

I think Polo shirts keep their color well throughout washes.

If you would have bought those fly big horse polos then this wouldn't be a problem.

If anything kudos to Slope for not spending a dickyear in a dressing room trying on a shirt that he's bought numerous times before and doing something better with his time.

I know right? I bought one a few years ago at a mall in North Carolina. Washed it, and was like WTF?

Nordstrom Regular Fit Polo

Better shirt, less expensive, return any time you want if you don't think you got enough use out of it.

You're welcome.
