Tommy never went out of style but it's super trendy nowadays. Got a lot of popular celebs sponsored

Polo is back in the 2012 era (I still rock it :flabbynsick: ). So they claim it's "unc" status

But my point is that true religion was hit back in 2012 too :skip: . All of a sudden it's making a comeback :dead:


Ed Hardy is hot again also (but fashion largely moves in 20 year cycles so this somewhat makes sense)
We need that Artful Dodger and Akademiks comeback :mjgrin:


I’d still rock Fubu city jerseys if I could find some brand new :mjgrin:

Why are brehs angry about being Uncs?

:mjlol:

Some of y’all need an intervention. It’s a wrap nikka! Go get you some polo slides to go with your polo shorts and man the grill at the next cookout.

You dress for yourself and within the social circle you are in. A man my age trying to dress like a young man looks silly, and always has looked silly. So we over here in the Unc with money status wear nice clothing that fits well, and looks good on us, while also being appropriate for our age.

The basic RL stuff ain’t hittin like it used to.

But like the previous poster polo has been a level above bum status since they started selling the nock off brand in Walmart.

The catalog collection $500+ might have something fly but if you rockin a solid polo with the horse on the chest in 2025 you’re autistic.

Only exception to polo is a semi formal event where there is an abundance of whites.

I don’t even go to the website anymore
Male fashion has fallen off

My guess is these kids can barely afford decent cars the last thing they’re gonna do is spend money of quality clothes.

Remember when Kanye started to dress like a bum. That’s where we are headed if not there.

Houston to LA like I'm Robert Horry.
As someone in their 30’s whose definitely “matured” in their style I can tell by the comments that a lot of yall can’t dress for shyt :heh:

When I think of Unc status I think of a Polo that’s probably a size to big with some oversized jeans or cargo shorts.

Ralph, specifically their RRL and Purple Label branches still make grown, mature, well made pieces without looking obnoxiously out of touch.
