I've got a serious problem! :cry:

My favorite polo shirt, which I generally wear to photoshoots which require me to be a little bit more dressed up than jeans and a t-shirt (in other words, country clubs and hotels and such), has a rip!

It was a gift, and it's my favorite polo, so I'd hate to throw it away if I can avoid it.

What kind of patch can I get to cover this darn rip? Here's a picture to show you where it is.

This one's kind of neat. Is this really as rare as he says it is?

Maybe you just want a new one? Maybe one of <a href="http://www.bmw-online.com/PIKE_products.asp?page=1&c=Lifestyle+2004%3A+Keep+Cool&sc1=Keep+Cool&m1=Automotive&c1=Lifestyle+2004&type=&r1=ALL&md=&a1=ON&d1=ON&i1=ON&p1=1&s1=">these</a>?

Well, yeah, except for the rediculous price tag, I'd love to have a couple of those hanging in my closet ;)...

$58.00 is retail. Order from a dealer that discounts from suggested retail.

You may be able to save the shirt :thumbup:
turn it inside out, match the sides together then see if you can whip stich the two sides together, or find a good old fashion sock darner. Mom

You may have luck repairing as above, then go to a Fabric store that sells the new sewing machines that sew patterns and designs . Have your full Name written on the sleeve, over the tare
Frederick Arthur Jaycobs The III

Or have them sew a Tribal like band on just part of the sleeve, It may take you a while to find the right person but I know it can be fixed. ;)
Happy hunting

LOL.

I'm going to get a patch for it I think. Just not sure which patch yet.
