The verdict
Fit
Relaxed, functional fit—not tailored like full-price Ted Baker. True to size for standard builds.
Quality
At $49, this is outlet-level pricing. Construction is basic but functional—seams hold, dye is stable, normal shrinkage.
Is the price fair?
At $49, exceptional value. You're getting a Ted Baker polo at a fraction of the standard price.
Best for
Men building a rotation of basic black polos for regular wear without paying premium prices.
Care
Machine wash warm with darks; tumble dry. At this price, expect normal wear and fading after many cycles.
What owners report about Ted Baker polos
Owner reports on Ted Baker's shirts and polos centre on fit and design more than durability. Styleforum posters praise the slim cut and collar shape but split on how the fabric ages — one reported fabrics looking worn after only a few washes, while another's shirt still looked new after two years of washing. Reviewers of the golf polo line note the shirts are a 95/5 cotton-elastane knit rather than full synthetic, with printed inner yokes, metal collar snaps and trim details, and consistently say the cut runs small.
- Strengths
- Reviewers single out the slim, well-proportioned cut, collar shape and print/trim detailing as what the line does best.
- Watch out for
- Durability is the split point — one Styleforum owner reported construction that is "OK, not amazing" with fabrics looking worn after a few washes — and the slim cut leaves little room if you are between sizes.
- Sizing
- Multiple reviewers report the polos run small and slim; golf reviewers advise sizing up a full size from your usual.
