I removed the chunk about catsuits being painted on to the body because it simply wasn't relevant. I retained the spandex reference in the new section about mock polonecks because the mock polo /is/ the most common collar there (spandex edges roll something horrible). I haven't seen a mock polo in real life for a very long time.

Thanks to Safedom for adding an image quite relevant with the text. Good idea ! --SEwiki 08:04, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Umm, does anyone else think that the 'Polo neck worn without bra' seems a bit odd? Is this a noteworthy way of wearing polonecks? Most clothes can be worn without a bra, so I'm not sure if it is necessary.

And the picture of 'Black woman in a white poloneck' seems to me to be of a mannequin. Just wondering if anyone else thought these were weird. --Acamon 21:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I thought the choice of photos was unusual. --Mister Blume 21:42, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

It's pretty funny, though.

Can I just mention that the term polo applies to the type of shirt worn by polo players and the term Polar Neck is description of garments worn by polar explorers/Fishermen etc you cannot have a polar necked polo shirt...The polar neck usually of wool was devised to protect the wearer from the elements...somewhere it's all got confused and polo is being applied to the rollover type collar design of sweaters etc. The lighter garments were not in use in the late 1890s as synthetics had not been invented - the likes of polyester etc did not appear for another 40 years. The Turtle neck was a derivative of polar neck and it was manufactured with an excess of material so it resembled a 'turtles neck' ie: more loose folds of material.

[edit] Change pictures

Does anyone have better pictures? The top one looks more like an ad for a beverage than a representation of a sweater. The second one is not lit well enough so the black sweater turns into a sort of blob. I guess the third one is fine, though it does seem strange to use a picture of a mannequin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.118.63.141 (talk) 18:56, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
