Polo shirts are named after the equestrian sport of polo, in which players originally wore the style. The design was later adopted by tennis players and became popular as golf polo shirts. Today, men's polo shirts are a versatile wardrobe staple.

Golf polo shirts should not be too tight; they need to allow for comfortable movement. Men's polo shirts should fit well around the chest and shoulders without being restrictive. A slightly relaxed fit is ideal for unrestricted motion on the golf course.

The best material for polo shirts depends entirely on your needs. Performance fabrics like matte jersey and pique offer excellent moisture-wicking and breathability. Pima cotton provides fantastic softness and durability for men's polo shirts.

Polo shirts pair well with chinos, shorts, and jeans for a versatile look. For a classic golf style, wear golf polo shirts with H&B tailored golf pants or lightweight shorts. Men's polo shirts can also be dressed up with slacks for a more polished appearance.
