I should probably start dressing my age-need some ideas

Speaking of polo shirts: These are what I buy.

I love the pen pocket on the left sleeve, and the front sunglasses/readers holder is handy too. For $14.99, you just can't go wrong.

Put a front pocket on it and I'd be sold

While I'm in here, I am more and more wearing Cabelas Safari shirts when not at work. Lots of pockets, come in short and long sleeved versions, a variety of colors available, don't look bad un-tucked (IMHO), and I get them roomy enough to easily carry using either an IWB or shoulder holster. I don't think they look particularly "tactical" and if someone asks where I got it, Cabelas doesn't give an "operator" vibe.


I wear with a colored tee underneath (long sleeved or turtleneck in cold weather), and often unbuttoned and un-tucked in warm weather (such as when traveling in the Southwest in years past).

Work - I wear slacks and a dress shirt, sometimes a blazer if the occasion warrants it.

Church - suit or sport coat with a tie

Everywhere else - ratty sweats or jeans and t-shirt unless the occasion demands it.

In the end, I don't care, so that means both ways. I will dress up as much as necessary or not.

That would be handy.

Front pockets on polos have always seemed too saggy for me. That's the other thing about HI shirts for me - phone, notebook, and pen don't pull the pocket down more than I can stand.

I have never understood the appeal of any kind of pocket on a shirt.

If the shirt is roomy, putting anything in a pocket makes an unsightly and uncomfortable sag. If the shirt is form fitting, putting anything in a pocket is just uncomfortable.

Polos are too soft to keep much in a.breast pocket, I keep a little notebook, pen, and cellphone in my breast pocket. Belt holders always break and I hate clumping up my pants pockets with stuff. A good shirt will hold shape. I prefer button up short sleeve xl-tall work shirts. Roomy but not tenty.

For a long time I wore long sleeve button down shirts every day, about 9 months of the year. Complaint still holds. Can't stand shirt pockets.

I hate having some stuff in my shirt pocket less than I hate having it all in my pants pockets.

If it's all in my pants pockets, they get too full and uncomfortable - they dig into my leg or they slip to the side and... dig into my leg. Also, a phone in the back pocket, I'm afraid I'll break. A notebook in a back or side pocket gets beat up more than I like.

Shirt pockets, like life, are compromise.

What do you carry?

If I have more than pants pockets can handle, I will certainly have a briefcase or backpack. And often, depending on season, coat pockets.
