The top button hole, I should say.

erm.. no? My polo shirts have the button hole on the same side.

Ugh... Look at the folded part at the top on the left. There's a button hole there. Now imagine you unbutton the bottom button. Now a button and a hole are on the same side, and that shouldn't happen!

oh yeah.. you're right.. The button/placket is on then wrong side

men and women's shirts button up on opposite sides- i can never remember which?

it could be the seam(sp?) of the other button. ever think of that.

Yep... but if you look at the photo the button must be on the same side as the buttonhole at the top for it to button up at the bottom like like that! Or it could be that it's not a buttonhole at all.. rather the back of the stitching that holds the top button on??

OMG it's 10.30pm here and I've just had a bottle of wine to drink (it's my birthday :p) and I'm comparing buttons and buttonholes!!!

happy birthday!

Maybe you could stich up the hole and add a button there. Better still, replace the whole thing with a zip. Or velcro. Maybe.

Lol at the last comment.

that's why its not your average polo.
