Do you wear a t-shirt under a polo shirt?

[Claybuster]

I was wondering how many of you wear a t-shirt under a polo shirt. I especially notice younger guys doing it. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I prefer not to wear one under a polo, as I think it takes something away from the shirt. Just wondering.

[RJmaiorano]

Sometimes yes sometimes no. If I do, I'll wear a low cut v-neck undershirt so it is not seen. I'm not a fan of seeing a white shirt under a polo or for that matter any shirt.

[a tailor]

yes i wear a v neck, even if its very hot. just habit i guess.

[Spence]

I used to always, but now I've found them much more comfortable without.

I never do. But is it appropriate for chest hair to stick out?

[Tom Bell-Drier]

who`s going to see my gold medalion, if I wear a t-shirt under my poloshirt.

[Asterix]

Never do.

[vwguy]

I never wear t-shirts under a polo.

In the UK you can purchase poloshirts with a little piece of white cloth sewn into the inside of the poloshirt.

To all intents and purposes it appears you have a t-shirt under a poloshirt.

I have a couple of these.

[forsbergacct2000]

I don't wear Tshirts under a polo. I don't have all that much chest hair, so I don't worry about it showing.

For men who do not wax... I believe this is a very important question.

[Beefeater]

Always wear one.

[Patrick M Thayer]

Of course not.

Of course it's appropriate for your chest hair to be visible. What is unbelievably gross, in my opinion, is for a man to shave or wax any part of his body below the neck.

Wasn't crazy about the look so never did it until earlier this year when I tried one to see if it would make a difference if I perspired. I find that wearing a T-shirt under a polo keeps me drier and more comfortable, especially in hot weather, so I usually wear one now.

Don't knock it till you try it. Some chicks dig it... smooth and clean

[jml90]

Nope.

[MrRogers]

I usually go with a hanes A-shirt or "wife beater" as they're known around these parts

I used to, but sleeves on polos are getting shorter, and having extra t-shirt sleeve stick out doesn't work very well.

+1... this is kinda more for the "fashion forward" crowd though I think a little bit of manscaping isn't too bad, however, i think the bare look is going out of style

Sometimes I wear a t-shirt, but most of the time I don't. Frankly, my wife appreciates the effort when her monkey-boy husband does a little below-the neck trimming.

[2.mark]

I sometimes wear a white tank top instead of a t shirt. Effectively a sleeveless scoop-neck t.

Depends on the setting...

A casual work setting: definitely a tee underneath.

Anywhere else: usually not, though I will sport a tee underneath if the situation calls for a measure of modesty or conservatism... a casual event at my fiancee's family's, for example.

[alaric]

I don't wear a tee with a polo. A polo is just a collared tee, it seems redundant to do so. The ones I have are just a two button placket, in any event.

All of my polos are two-button, and I always button the bottom and never button the top. But hair still creeps out. This is the way I was taught to button a polo shirt and have been doing so since I was 10 years old. I still remember the day when a great person in my life showed me how. When I was 11 years old he taught me to keep a fart journal.
