Expensive Custom Polos for Preppies with Very Little Tact
Filed under: Fashion, News, Stylish Living
Say what you will about conservative fashion, there's still hope out there that a polo shirt can be ironic and expressive while still capturing that sense of 'I can still afford to pay way too much for a polo, even during a recession.' For a bargain basement price of only $120 + shipping, you can order a personalized polo featuring a classy embroidered pot leaf or sexy mudflap girl at Hickey's website.The high quality polos appear to be part of a probably misguided attempt by Hickey to market to the very few dudes who want to throw down six Jacksons on a novelty shirt. Yet, of course, we like the hell out of them for doing it. We also like a lot of their other ironically conservative-ish, yet expensive styles.
As for customizing your polo, you can mix and match a variety of color choices with one of the following classy embroidered logos: a pot leaf, moonshine jug, peace sign, 'mud flap chick,' Grizzly Bear, Griffin, fish bones, or the classic twig and two berries.If you wanna go all out, you can even get a matching 'mud flap girl' cashmere sweater for $268. Kinda reminds us of John C. Reilly's quote about the tuxedo t-shirt "I want to be formal, but I'm here to party too."
