A LACOSTE long-sleeve polo shirt, estimated from the 1980s.
LACOSTE was founded in France in 1933 by René Lacoste, a tennis player of prominence in the 1920s.
This is an authentic French-made piece—sought after by many collectors. French production ceased in the 1990s, making pieces from this era and earlier increasingly rare and valuable for those building a considered collection.
While there are no significant differences from Japanese-made LACOSTE, the French versions do run slightly larger in armhole, body width, and length despite identical size markings. For those drawn to the original, French production represents the brand at its source.
The polo shirt transcends category—a perennial essential that belongs in any wardrobe.
This example comes in navy, a colour that many seek within the LACOSTE archive.
In this understated single tone, it pairs effortlessly across contexts. Whether styled casually or formally, it adjusts to whatever the occasion demands.
Size 5 strikes a balance—neither oversized nor fitted—a golden proportion.
A sizing that accommodates most Japanese frames comfortably, across a range of builds.
The condition is notably clean for its age, free from prominent soiling or damage.
A piece that earns its place through the warmer months. If you have been searching for one, this may be worth considering.
