the green ones legit, i cant see the smaller one, but id believe him. NS members dont scheme on each other, we spread the love.

lacoste makes a great polo, i have a few. j crew is comprable in quality. if you wear a small in jcrew, you wear a 4 in lacoste. 5 is medium, 6 is large, roughly

the best and only way to tell if it is fake is the location of the crocodile logo. If it is in line with the bottom badge it is fake, if it is between middle and bottome badge it is geniune.


Well thank u for the help, but while I was out I went to Macy's and bought 3 real Lacoste shirts, and examined them, and what u said was right, the real shirt is made in France, and Peru. The buttons should be just Mother of Peral with nothing on it, the alligator, is kinda long and skinny compared to the fake one, which seems to be a we bit shorter and a we bit fat, there should only be 2 buttons, the aliigator has a short line for a eye, instead of a dot, and the mouth is kind of wider.

Plus, don't always rely on where the alligator is placed because on my fake ones, the alligator is in the right place, which is what had me, but now I know.

Basically there is no way to tell if they are real or not. Lacoste makes so many different styles that are subject to change that it is hard to know what is real in the first place. Lacoste will not say what makes a shirt real, because that would make it easier to make fake ones. The only way to know if these are real is to trust that they were actually purchased at Bloomingdales.

Who gives a shit if they are fake? If you want a Lacoste polo, you want it for the look. And these LOOK like Lacoste polos. And for $30? Who cares. That's similar to the price you pay for any polo. And if this one gives you that look that you want/girls like, go for it.

Rich people's clothing. More or less.
Also for preppy college kids who think by wearing it, it'll get them laid.

the lacoste site is sick

but while i was on there browsing, i stumbled upon the FAQ page...

"The only way of being sure you are getting a genuine Lacoste item is to buy it from one of the many Approved Lacoste Retailers (identifiable from the window sticker), from one of the 800 Lacoste Boutiques or from one of the 2000 Lacoste corners currently open around the world.

Items sold outside these sales outlets can only be counterfeit."

but yeah does it really matter if its fake? i bought a pair of lacoste jeans from bloomingdales on super sale...retail price $125, snagged them for $54.12. i'd feel pretty stupid rockin those jeans with a Polo or LeTigre, so why not go for the matching kit? $80 for a complete lacoste outfit is pretty DAMN good

I can almost guarantee they're fake. Lacoste is to nice for someone to have a friend selling them for $30 online. Lacoste will only sell to select stores, you CAN'T just wholesale them. And whoever says that it doesn't matter if they're fake, you stupid, just because they look the same doesn't mean they are. Real Lacoste shirts come with Mother of Pearl buttons, which are pretty rare, and bump the price up from any other polo.
