Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. It's different than just your regular dress shirt.Originally Posted by instant klassic
Polos are a little tougher because of the elastic armbands, cuts in the hem, and longer tail. Only bring it to a really good tailor. They might have to entirely overhaul the shirt to make it look right, and that would cost at least 18-20.Originally Posted by dreClark

I can take any time of shirt to a taylor right? I bought two classic fit RL shirts some time ago, but I don't like the way they fit. I'm 5'7 and in high school so I want them tailored because I don't like tucking in my shirts right now.
Taper = Make it more slim
Hem = Make it shorter
If you want to taper, you might also want to raise the armholes so it fits better. And make sure they take it in from the sides, don't let them take it in from the back which will give your shirt "princess seams".
So I guess I shouldn't get rid of all the Polo's I was about to sell since they are a little too big now...
But I wouldn't mind paying the 18-20 to get it right. Id rather pay that then try to go and buy another one IF I can find it in those exact colors.
