Yes, I think that may have something to do with it. :p

I don't really think that this is a new trend in some places...I've been wearing my collar popped since I was about 3 years old.

well...i live in south this popped collar thing has been around for a bit...nothing really new to me...

I wore my collar up when I was reading The Official Preppy Handbook in the early 1980s. I always wore my Lacoste shirts with the collars up. I am glad that this trend from the 80s is back. :)

I wore my Bass penny loafers the other day, too. :)

that's such a good book! i wonder where the copy my sister and i had is...

I saw this kid at the bar last night wearing two LaCoste shirts, both with the collars popped. It looked completely stupid, no offense guys, one might have been ok, but two was way overboard. Especially since one was yellow and the other was green, EWW.

ech. If I see one more assclown with a popped collar today, Im gonna take his stupid fishhook out of the brim of his stupid hat and jam it in his stupid eye. Leave it in college.

Seacrest out

Pop your collar all day everyday....

OMG, I used to do this in 1982-85 when I was in high school...! Pink & white, blue & pink, and of course, our high school colors, blue & yellow.

I saw the EXACT same guy! Just kidding, because I was in Tampa, but I was at a bar the other night too, and saw a dude wearing a yellow polo with a green polo layered over top. And his were Abercrombie polos, I don't know anyone with Lacoste polos. I have yet to see a girl here with her collar up, perhaps I'll start the trend ;)

Ed. for typo

well if youre not a fan, you can join the APCC (Anti popped collar club)

their motto: "the popped must be stopped"

Who wants to listen to people that go to ncsu? That doesn't even sound prestigious for a bathroom.

Mullet my boys all read the gtown article on that yale site and when we hung out tonight, 75% of us had no issue popping collars (the other 25% were worried about that whole...gay thing). Panties dropped for 50% of us, 100% of the collar poppers. My hot expensive girl dropped because she knows the collar means i can buy her pretty shiny things. I just wanted to let you know. I think you should pop your collar and wear a tight burberry polo.

--Good deal

Is this an example of the popped collar?

oh rudey, i think i love you ;) you were right, when the collar pops, the panties drop - maybe your other bozo friends will finally get the picture - girls like the popped collar not because guys have an atitude when they do it, but b/c of what it means for theg girl ;)

Put me down as anti-popped, sorry everyone :( I just don't like it :p

People get beat up for wearing stuff like that.....heh

p. diddy is sporting a popped collar (granted it's a jacket collar) on TRL today
