Rhoback is similar to every single other performance golf shirt out there. I've got a couple of their golf shirts but I prefer Peter Millar, Johnnie O, Stitch, Greyson and Onward Reserve.

The Johnnie O stuff is so comfortable. Peter Millar is too, but they are so expensive.

I  think they look sharp.

Which means most will think they're dad shoes.

make sure you wear them with ankle socks.

Also a poster prescribed these Clydes on a similar thread years ago. Might have been shaggy. Solid choice

I'm probably going to grab one of the Poncho outdoors burnt orange short sleeves. I see they have an "Original" and a "Western" version. Has anyone tried both and if so which do you prefer?

Original:

The Smokey

 

Western:

i've got the western and i love it.  it wears warmer (heavier material, different ventilation etc) than a fishing shirt so it's not my preference for outdoor wear in the 90s but it's one of my favorite shirts in my closet.

Johnnie O was a little too long to wear untucked. Went with this Columbia one from Rally House to pair with the C&B vest from Fanatics.

I saw this at Greene Outfitters today and thought about buying it.  .   I fell like an old man at 52.      We just moved in  our youngest into her college dorm. We blessed with our first Grand Child in June and I take Cialis.     I’m going to start wearing old man  shirts but then I saw the price on this one and said no thanks at $196.   I think Pancho Outdoors has a more affordable optiona?

I can't even fathom spending $200 on a shirt. IDGAF if it's Texas, that's just absurd. I spent $80 a piece on 2 Longhorns golf shirts (amazing breathable material) and winced. Thank God they've held up over the years, so it was worth it, I suppose. Not doing it again, though. 

I do like my Longhorns Toms. They're great for Saturday football, and they only cost something like $45, and I've had them for around 4 years. I would definitely recommend buying a pair if they're still sold. I'm contemplating on buying a pair of UT Hey Dudes. 

You can get 15% off if you head to their site. They're nice and comfortable af.

Not sure how these look in real life, but the orange looks close online

I have the white ones, but being volleyball “court shoes,” the soles are very thin. Everything you step on, you can feel it. Nike’s run narrow for me and my feet too.

Hook’em!!!

These kind of remind me of my Adidas Sambas regarding soles. You can feel everything you walk on, but they're vet comfortable. 

My wife and I just got new pairs. I hadn't worn a pair since my soccer days in HS, and they've really cone a long way.

Poncho shirts - their market is surly type dudes so I assume the regular shirts are fairly forgiving. I’m not a great big fat dude but I’m also not a rock hard abs guy at 6’ 180, I’m assuming large is probably my fit but curious if there are comments on fit or length. I have a long torso and hate it when shirts like this are too short, so considering an xl slim instead.

I want to learn about the marketing of these shoes. It seems like they went from nowhere to the ubiquitous new crocs for middle aged men in the span of 2 years.

I don't know about their rise to popularity, but I worked briefly for a roofing company and all our sales guys wore them.  Aged 20-30 ish

They've always seemed very "aggy" to me, if that makes sense.

Pairing Hey Dudes with some cargo shorts and a maroon magellan shirt....boom there is your stereotypical aggy game day fit.

Crocs owns HeyDudes so they have some good marketing behind them

Poncho shirts are nice.  I have a camo one I just bought for dove season and I will be buying more non-camo versions.  

Also, there is a clothing company in Austin named Duck Camp, mainly high end hunting stuff, but go to their website and check as well.

Poncho is just a great looking shirt and it feels like fishing shirts which are great for Texas summers.

Columbia shirts are aggy. Poncho shirts are at least more professional looking.

Magellan shirts are for Aggies.

 

Columbia's PFGs are for anyone who likes fishing and doesn't gravitate to the cheapest version of a nice thing.

My GF is a Georgia alum and bought me a Onward Reserve GA polo for the Ole Miss game in Athens last year. They fit perfect. Not like a tent you see with Peter Millar. 

Have to size down on the Classic Fit from Peter Millar.  Tailored Fit should be true to size

Interesting take that a brand which Colt McCoy sponsors heavily seems aggy.  

As others have said, Poncho shirts are great.

I have the Western   It’s a bit dressier than the normal with the pearl snaps. Get compliments everytime I wear it.

I am 6'2" 205 and the XL slim Poncho fits perfect.  Regular cut is a little big on me.

I should have clarified/bolded better in my quoted post.

I was referring to the Hey Dude shoes.

 

Poncho is great.

Honestly, I had never heard of them until my wife bought me a pair. They're not pretty, but they are comfortable. I've seen a lot of younger kids wearing them. I've never seen a commercial for them, so I have no clue how they marketed them. Whatever they did it's genius. Crocs seem to have stood the test of time. People went from making fun of them to now booming. They're still ugly as hell, but they sell like crazy. Kids are rocking them, too. I don't get it. 

Personally, I would rather just wear my Toms. They're breathable, not too ugly, and they go with almost everything. I love my UT Toms, but I can't wear them everyday. Most of the time I just wear some other Toms to the office, and wear my UT ones when watching games. Last year I wore my UT Hey Dudes to Tuscaloosa. Weirdly, people were curious where I got them and asked if they made other schools. I just said I had no idea, but I'm sure they do. Granted these were people my age (mid 30s) and older.

Wouldn’t an XL slim be an L?

Kidding aside, we’ve made an FR coverall in the past (a few times to be honest) in 12XL. We literally keep 7XL in stock and move them weekly. One customer asked us to put on the collar tag “12XL slim”. So we did.

The stats: 96” chest, 90” waist, 48” leg openings.

I'm highly targeted by vans because they are my favorite toddler shoe. These ones are much closer to the right shade. I was getting tempted by those killshots again even though I've sworn off of Nike's narrow ass shoes

what's an FR coverall and will that add relevant context to 96 x 90 x 48 leg openings

Sent back my Poncho burnt orange western.  The color just does not look great, IMO.  Did buy the corduroy burnt orange long sleeve and the Earl.  Hope the Earl looks better than the plain burnt orange. 
The 1969? That shit is more burnt orange than 90% of the garbage posted here lol

It did not look good on me.  Maybe it is my coloring.  But yes.  And I love Poncho shirts

Love my 1969. I have the earl but I’m sending it back. I took a swing on going down a size but it’s a tad too tight for my handles. Gotta wait on the L slim to be back in stock.
