Uniqlo polo length is the most appropriate for my body, other things like shirts at uniqlo are too long for me. sad.gif

Banana republic? It's at rm100+.
I bought a very comfortable banana republic polo tee at reject shop at rm40. Very comfortable to wear, it's 96% cotton and 4% spandex. It's 100% non defect and authentic, just that they cut off the label. Should buy more that time.

Or you can go factory outlet to look for la coste. Bought plain one at rm150. Not classic pique cotton, but more like jersey cotton. Quite comfortable and felt like very durable.

Ralph Lauren is one of the best. Very comfortable but quite pricey unless you buy it in USA. You will surprise to see how low the price was in us.

Tommy hilfiger is good as well. Bought a classic plain polo tee around rm100 during their sales in us. The cotton is comfortable and cutting is nice. Again, you will be surprise to see the low price in us.

Burberry is very expensive. But I think the material is almost the same like polo Ralph Lauren or la coste. good for going to club but not work I guess.

G2000. Not durable in my opinion. It goes out of shape few months after you bought it.

Fred perry and CKJ. Bought one each few years back but dont like it. CKJ is the worst, not durable at all. Dont really like Fred perry. But I can't judge because I gain weight and never wear it for 1,2 years.

To me, Ralph Lauren, Tommy hilfiger and banana republic are the best. Ralph lauren and Tommy hilfiger are quality guaranteed, but I like RL's design and fitting more. I just love banana after the first time I bought it in reject shop, will buy more of banana instead of Ralph Lauren because of the lower price. smile.gif

FOS got serious sizing issues. Size S / M is almost impossible to find.

The G2000 that I bought quite durable. Fit your budget. Still looks good after 2-3 years.
Perhaps buy more polo shirts. Long cycle before you wear and wash the same one again.

Hi guys,

Need recommendation for a durable polo shirt brand.
Want to use it for work, usually i bought pdi or any of their family company.
But need to buy a new one almost every 4-6 month, the bottom will stretch out after 6 month of wash.

thanks in advance.  budget below RM100  sweat.gif

I can push my budget to rm200 if the shirt really worth it in term of durability.

bro, it's not the problem of budget or material

it's the way how u wash it.

Don't rendam overnight, Don't use washing machine, use correct temporature water to wash it (follow the tag there) tongue.gif

Get a cheaper polo so u could change so often... When u start worrying on how to make ur tee last longer it just means u can't afford it.. Get something cheaper and change when its spoiled

Well for me, they have better / plain / simple design rather than RL. Bought few of them last year, still last till today. Cost only below RM100.
10% off for member like me of course.
