Classic Polo

Brand: American Giant Price: $68 Made in: Middlesex, NC

American Giant is the brand that made heavyweight American-made basics cool again. The Classic Polo has a substantial pique knit that feels nothing like the tissue-thin polos at the mall. The collar stays flat after dozens of washes. This is the polo I wear most.

Classic Polo

Brand: All American Clothing Price: $40 Made in: Arcanum, OH

All American Clothing is exactly what the name says. Everything is sourced and made domestically. The polo is straightforward pique cotton with a no-nonsense fit. At $40 this is the most affordable American-made polo I have found that does not cut corners on construction.

Standard Polo

Brand: Bills Khakis Price: $79 Made in: Reading, PA

Bills Khakis is known for their pants but the polo deserves more attention. The interlock knit fabric has a smooth, dressy hand feel. The fit is a touch more generous than American Giant which works well for guys who do not want skin-tight. Clean collar construction.

Garment Dyed Polo

Brand: Homage Price: $48 Made in: Columbus, OH

Homage started with vintage sports tees and their polo carries that relaxed DNA. The garment-dyed fabric has a broken-in feel from day one. It is softer and more casual than the other polos here. Good option if you want something that looks like you have owned it for years.

Pistol Lake makes performance-oriented basics in LA and the Eudae Polo is their standout. The Eudae fabric is a proprietary blend that wicks moisture and resists odor without feeling synthetic. Perfect for guys who run hot. The minimalist design works for the office or the weekend.
