  - why is this bad? what is better? a preppy polo shirt that clings to a less than perfect 40+ body or a old T that makes him look like a slob?

    - My (pudgy) DH wears a tee shirt under a golf shirt or a long sleeve button down. I am sure your DHs office is air conditioned.

        golf shirt or tee shirt - if the situation calls for a button down it should be long sleeve

      - my 50 yr old dh wears lacoste. His bod is not perfect but he looks adorable, clean and neat. Go to the lacoste store. There is one on Madison and another in Soho. They're cheap and good looking.

    - you're husband will either look like a ten year old or a maintenance man if he wears them. Polo's are not geeky, it's called classic.

        no, she didn't. I offered one anyway, along with a bunch of others. You moved to name calling, dragging things to the gutters, not me (read the thread). Self awareness is a good thing. Take care.
