I really really really don't see what the issue with it is. ...
Why anyone would think this has anything to do with class I don't know, it's just a dress code like any other sport has.
How about the simple - that it looks crap
As the standard 2 arguments "for" go :
1. Your polo shirt and chinos make you look smart, and
2. You can buy these smart clothes at SportsDirect for a tenner
Maybe there's only one or two of us that see an apparent inconsistency there.
Look Loadsamoney was wearing polo shirts in the 1980s - I for one apologise for thinking he didn't look "smart", but I am sure you would have welcomed him into your golf clubs with his polo shirt and his money
Me, I'd stay a mile away from him, not because of his dress sense, but because of his lack of respect for other people
Dress does not mean behaviour, and it is behaviour that matters. As soon as you define dress codes with "smart" because your dress style defines your behaviour ( as a number of posts on here say) then it becomes a measure for deciding whether any newcomer will enter your clique or not. Ad that's why it becomes a perceived class thing.
Hopefully that helps you see where we are coming from, even if we are wrong.
