In college I never wanted to wear anything other than a fresh, cheap graphic tee and a pair of old jeans. I even went as far as making a promise to myself that I would never sell-out and be one of those sweaty, suit wearing corporate cogs dripping all over the uptown express train during rush hour. As I sit here in my cramped cubicle wearing my tight, starched, collared shirt that promise seems like a lifetime ago. The vintage t-shirts and well-worn jeans of my youth have been replaced by deadlines and corporate dress codes.

I needed a backup plan. I needed professional attire that also didn’t try to strangle me in the sweltering heat of a New York City taxi cab but I couldn’t sport a t-shirt and jeans and ever expect to get anywhere above middle-management. My solution was simple: cheap polo shirts! After almost passing out one afternoon I decided that I’d buy polo t-shirts by the truckload and use this arsenal of professional yet casual attire to wage war on restrictive clothing. Take it from me, cheap, breathable clothing is a far superior to ties and dress shirts. Comfort aside the environmental benefits of not having to get my shirts dry-cleaned make me feel good– almost as good as all the money I saved!

The main reason why these anti-polos exist may be largely due to the fact that they dislike those who wear polos, not the polos themselves. Well now all those anti-polo-wearers who do like polos, but just can’t stand those they call “preppy” . The answer is graphic polo shirts. Polos, but different. Here is a look at some classic polos and their non-preppy counter-parts:
