An act that involves pulling your collar up and over your neck. Despite looking moronic, and defeating the purpose of collared shirts (looking somewhat respectable), this has somehow become a fashion trend.
John Smith: Wow, look at that moron's collar pop.
Me: I really wish clothing companies would start writing 'douche' on the inside of collars. Maybe being labelled a douche by their own clothing whenever they pop their collars would be enough incentive for them to stop.

An epidemic that is spreading across private schools across America. Rich fuckups that feel the need to protect their necks are especially likely to contract Collar Popping Syndrome, or C.P.S. The disease involves a person wearing a button down shirt with the collar flicked up. Not only is this hazardous to personal health but it is also a mortal sin. Anyone, preppy or not, who catches C.P.S. will surely be damned for it.

The act of popping up the collar of a polo shirt, so it covers the neck.
Twenty years ago kids in ghetto wore their collars popped, now it is a trend among frat boys and preps.
A common look for the frat boy is to wear a pink polo shirt with the collar popped. The pink shirt fools sorostitutes into thinking that frat boy is comfortable with his sexuality, when in reality, every sixth word out of his mouth is faggot.
And here we see a fine specimen of prep. Note the sandles with socks, meticulously groomed hair, and popped collar.

On a polo shirt, the style of lifting the collar up instead of having it in its natural, down position.

Many Americans are confused concerning the real definition of a “popped collar”. In short, a collar has been popped when the wearer flips it up, so that it no longer rests on one's shoulders. It frames the face, and hides much of the neck. Many “poppers” nonchalantly flip their collars up, allowing the adjunct flap of fabric to slouch as it pleases, to create a vibe of effortless hipness. Some fastidiously iron said accessory, opting for a slick, polished look. Some favor the Twilight Zone style, fluffing their coat collars in a mysterious manner. The extremely confident poppers layer shirts, and simultaneously pop multiple collars. Polo or button-down shirts are the most popular media for poppage. (Typical of the coastal prep school dude and wannabe ganstas.)
That silly frat boy had a popped collar, until I pummeled him AND his collar into the ground.

All I'm going to say: While the current state of the popped collar is upsetting, to say the least, it has its roots in legitimacy. The original collars were not just fashionable, they had function. The sea-goers of yore faced many perilous conditions, among them the harmful rays from the sun. They learned early on covering their necks was beneficial to their health, in terms of dehydration, as well as avoiding burns. The trend was picked up by people who 'summer' in Cape Cod, those for whom sailing is a passion, and while not drinking or talking abouts sailing, they sail. So knock it, but don't hate on it.
'That popped collar is fashionably questionable, but he's no redneck.'
