Lacoste Men's Classic Fit L.12.12 Original Piqué Polo Shirt (Retired Edition) Polo Shirt

Beautiful, quality, authentic Lacoste polo. Better than expected. Amazing value given the price. Highly recommend!

Not as roomy as what I am used to for a Lacoste Classic size 9, even the length is on the short side. I have older shirts (ten years old) and this one is a good four inches shorter.

Great color and very soft. My husband loved this gift! Arrived quickly.

Way, way too small. I'm 6'6" and this fit like a regular large. It was not 3xl. The label said it was, but nowhere near the amazon size chart. I wish all the clothes they sold would meet that chart.

Assuming you don't get some bad luck these are great value. I won a bunch of legit Lacoste purchased from their stores, these are the same and you can find some good prices due to Amazon sourcing. People posting reviews saying these are fake because they are made in Peru are oblivious to the fact that Lacoste makes a lot of their clothes in Peru (this is especially true for Pima cotton, which if you knew anything about Pima cotton you'd know is actually a very good thing!). If you doubt this - search for "Lacoste Peru" or read their social responsibility statements (search for "lacoste community developments report" to see their sustainability reporting listing Peru in their manufacturing locations). Also, seriously, google "what is Pima Cotton" before suggesting that Peru is a red flag for it! For the people suggesting the smaller crocodile on the Pima polo is a sign of it being fake because it's smaller than the Pique polo: do your homework and learn about the different styles before you spout nonsense. Go to a Lacoste store and compare the sizes of the two. Or go to the Lacoste website and pull up the image of the L12.12 classic Pique and then pull up the Regular Fit Pima cotton polo and compare them side by side zoomed in at the same level. The croc on the Pima Regular Fit Polo is smaller than the L.12.12 alligator. You can actually see that the croc's set of teeth are more condensed on the Pima version in addition to it being smaller. Screenshot showing the Pique on left and the Pima on right from the Lacoste website, both zoomed to the same level. Now, on to the not to so good: You might get bad versions of these. People abuse the return system unfortunately. If you get a bad version please report it and return it, and take pictures. For the most part I've had good luck, but occasionally you get a bad luck draw and get a used/worn/dirty something else polo. You do not and should not accept these, but for the most part I've had great success buying genuine Lacoste products when purchased from Amazon. On to the shirt itself - note this is a Pima cotton polo, and is regular fit, so it's cut tighter and has a different weave than the traditional Regular L.12.12 Lacoste polo you might be thinking of. It is a jersey material, which has a different feel but I enjoy. It also is a tighter cut than the L.12.12 and does not have a side slit like the L.12.12. As with all Lacoste polos - WAS IT COLD AND DO NOT TUMBLE DRY. Lay or hang it after washing. It will shrink slightly if you do this, but it will still fit. If you tumble dry it chances are it won't fit. Not only will it be too tight, but the length will get worse and Lacoste polos are already some of the shortest lengths on the market. It likely will become unwearable. WASH COLD. DO NOT TUMBLE DRY.
