I got this ad popping on my instagram the other day of Mack Weldon 'Vesper Polo' that looks almost like the Sunspel Riviera, was wondering if any of you ordered or tried them out? are they any good?

They are selling at $68 and being promoted for daily wear

    I ordered one. It runs small to be aware. Seems to be a more robust quality than Sunspel.

    Is the sizing off from Sunspel?

    I normally wear a small in a polo in the Sunspel... should I be getting a medium?

    I think its cool they made a mock Sunspel polo at a cheaper price but it would be nicer if it was less than $70 bucks :)

    Not bad but the sleeves are too long compared to the Sunspel.

    Yah they looked a tad longer in the photos.... Uniqlo makes good polos that hit at the mid bicep similar to Sunspel but they have three buttons instead of two

    Comparing the size chart of the vesper polo with the riviera's one, both seem almost identical in the chest:
    Vesper small: 38"
    Riviera small: 37.6"

    They have a free shipping and return policy on anything over 50$. I would just order two sizes and compare it to your sunspel polo.

    And the Mack Weldon has a small logo on the back (!) so it's a no-go for me.

    Do you have a link to the Uniqlo polo? I'm not sure if it's still available

    Just stopped by Uniqolo this weekend and it seems they stopped making the style of polo that was similar to QOS... I will look a bit more on their website and contact them to find out if they will be releasing it.... I did see the logo on the Marc Weldon on the back and was not a fan as well... doubt I will pay 70 dollars for that polo.... might as well get a Sunspel at that point :)
