Polos

Hey guys I need your help. I am looking to expand my polo wardrobe and already have the basics (Ralph Lauren, Lacoste, Brooks Bros, and Vineyard Vines). I recently saw a brand I had never seen before but can't remember what it is called. All I know about it was the logo was a dog with a bow tie on and I think the name started with Southern something. Can you guys help me out and let me know what this brand is? Thanks.

This makes me physically sick.

...

and yes, it's Southern Proper. Their ties are great, but not sure about the polos.

Popping a southern proper or brooks brothers polo is actually illegal in 7 states.

Correct me if I am wrong......but I believe popping the collars was very big in the 80's. Almost all the fraternities at my school, including mine did this. If you didn't, your were considered not part of the "in Crowd" fraternities.

While the 80s were the epitome of anything good in this world (Widespread Panic, cocaine and Reagan), I am not a fan of the popped collar.

There are far too many brands coming out trying to get the Southern Fraternity man's attention...VV pushes it sometimes.

Hell, SoPro has the "Frat Hat", which might be pushing it.

stick with polo, bb, and vv. stop trying so hard.
Going right after "Volunteer Traditions", "Southern Proper", and "Southern Tide" are way?

Just to spite (smite?) you I'm going to start a brand called "Southern Fratdition" and it's going to have a picture of a lab, cheap beer, some cocaine and a neck tie on it. Fraaaaatty.

spite was correct. smiting is more physical. although the image of you smiting someone with a clothing brand is pretty funny. WEAR THIS! whap!
