Looking for a classic polo without a logo

I have been wearing Ralph Lauren polos for years. I love their classic style and high quality, and they don't wear out after 15 years. Their variety of colours and fits is superb. But I'd really love a piqué polo just like them in the same style and same level of quality at a similar price, just without a logo. What are my options?

Sunspel piqué polo.

L.L Bean

Inexpensive, well made, very full cut
Thanks! The style is right, but I'm concerned that a size S may be too big on me if the cut is full. My chest is 37" and I'm looking for a trimmer fit, but not tight. They unfortunately don't have a proper size guide on their website.

Given your very exacting specifications, and having already tried alternatives of excellent quality, it does not sound likely that you are going to be able to find something with the very same fabric+collar+fit as a PRL polo that isn't a PRL polo.

Given your affection for its particular characteristics, it might be time to consider just sticking some masking tape over the logo - two intersecting pieces would be better, to create an "X" (also, maybe writing a "?" on the tape itself to add an additional point of visual interest).

Quite surprised and disappointed you haven't already thought of this TBH and that it even needs to be stated.

I'm just puzzled at how nobody has tried replicating the most quintessential polos—PRL and Lacoste—without a logo. I figured there had to be something out there, but I guess not.

They have ( had) a trimmer version. Give them a call. Their customer service is
excellent . They can give you the measurements over the phone.

They kindly provided the measurements, which are too big for me. Unfortunately their only trimmer polo is a much different style.

Can you still make your own RL polos and make the logo the same
Color as the shirt? Could be an option.
