I'm not usually one for Southern __________ stuff, but I have a good opportunity to pick up several things from Southern Marsh but don't know anything about the quality.

Mainly interested in the synthetic fishing pocket t's and the synthetic polos. Can anyone comment on that stuff or just the quality of SM generally? The polos look similar to the synthetic Peter Millar polos, which are my go to.

I might get it regardless to try out, but it's not that easy to find reviews of frat wear companies and I don't think I can get to a store before I'd need to use the offer.

They make good stuff IMO. I don't have any issues with the quality.

The polo I have is pretty low quality, definitely better out there. Everything else though is pretty well made.

I despise their Tshirts. Sleeves are way too short and the neck holes can fit three necks in them.

The synthetic fishing pocket t's are legit. My biggest complaint is the fit of the t-shirt. And the button downs are pretty shite quality

I know their shirts use to shrink really bad, to the point where they were to small to wear.

I have heard that they switched shirt manufacturers and they do not shrink anymore, but I'm Still a little skeptical on trying their shirts out again.

Their swim suits fit rather well, no issues with those.

Not Marsh, but I bought one of those Southern Tide team polos with the logo on the sleeve last year and the fit was horrendous. Sleeves and neck were enormous while the midsection of the shirt was tight. Maybe it was just one poorly made shirt, but I took it back.

I have one purp/gold button down from them It's still going strong after a ton of washes and nights out/stuff spilled all over it.

I have a couple of shirts and really like them. For regular polo shirts, I'll usually stick with Southern Marsh, Southern Tide and Brooks Brothers. They fit me best. I'll never buy another Ralph Lauren polo, ever.

Not sure about the quality of their items, but they are a try-hard brand.

I only have their tshirts. I wouldn't recommend their stuff other than hats and visors. The tshirts shrink and the collar wrinkles. If you want a "Southern" brand go with Southern Tide.

If your 6 feet or taller, don't buy their shirts. Will end up being a tube top for you.
