Those trendy folks up at Oi Polloi have managed to get a few of the Autumn/Winter 2011 Custom Fit shirts from Polo by Ralph Lauren slightly ahead of season, and damn are they good.

I love a good bit of Ralphy Custom Fit, and personally I believe it’s an absolute wardrobe staple, the slim button down collar, curved hem, slender profile and crisp styling make the Custom Fit an epic shirt. If you’ve yet to invest in a good Polo by Ralph Lauren shirt, then I strongly advise you stop looking at the price and just get involved, you won’t regret it. These three AW11 pieces don’t let the team down, and we see a Polo staple (the Blue chambray Custom Fit BD Shirt) return for another season with some very minor adjustments

There’s almost no point talking about the quality of these shirts, as you shouldn’t have to read any further than “Polo by Ralph Lauren” to know that they are of a top-notch build and material. My personal favourite has to be the Tattersall check pocket shirt, with it’s unconventional “P.R.L” embroidered on the pocket – something a little different from the norm.

All three shirts are available from Oi Polloi now, ranging in price from £90 to £115.
