If you can find a nice polo at a thrift store, go with that! We shop thrift/vintage ourselves, and love re-use vs. new manufacturing.
We're going to strive to hit price points that the average American (US!) find reasonable. As we build the company we'll have an increasing ability to do this.
Our first run, however, just isn't feasible at the quality we are holding ourselves to (plus Kickstarter and Amazon both take a cut).
I think we'll hit $25 for a polo quickly. We hope you'll follow the progress and buy when you're comfortable!
