LACOSTE Slim Fit Polo Shirts
You’ve probably worn it at least once.
Introduction.
Polo shirts are an indispensable item for men’s summer fashion, and I always wear one in the summer.
When it comes to polo shirts, Lacoste and Fred Perry, introduced here, are two of the most popular, but when combined with other items, I often choose plain, plain Lacoste over Fred Perry, which has stripes on the collar.
I enjoy Fred Perry in a slightly more relaxed form, so I hope to be able to introduce this on another occasion. This time, I would like to talk about Lacoste polo shirts.
A classic amongst classics is still good.

The Lacoste deerstalker polo is so well-known and standard that I don’t need to introduce its merits, but I would like to introduce it here because I have been wearing it for many years.
I choose to wear slim-fit polos, which have a slightly shorter length and are tighter than the regular line, including width and armholes. The regular line is also good, but I choose slim-fit, which has a cleaner body width.
The slim fit is chosen on the basis of the way it is worn with jeans. You can make your choice in this area according to your preference and the style you like.
I like white polo shirts too, so the basic colour is white, but black, red, yellow, or this season, green or brown are also great and can be enjoyed with the outerwear you combine them with.
Because it has a collar, it is basically worn alone, but I also enjoy wearing it as an inner layer of a tailored jacket instead of a shirt, or in combination with outerwear with a collar, such as a work jacket made of the same French moleskin.
The polo shirt has a collar, so it does not become too casual like a T-shirt and does not fall apart when worn alone, which is a good thing about polo shirts. The feel of the deerstalker is good and sturdy, so toughness that does not hurt even after repeated washing is also a feature of Lacoste’s deerstalker polo.

Conclusion.
The LACOSTE polo shirt is such a big classic that everyone has probably worn it at least once, but when you wear it, you can enjoy a sophisticated look. This time I have chosen a slim fit instead of the standard regular fit, but it fits the body and the length is exquisite, so I can enjoy it in a slightly sporty style.
Like the 501, the LACOSTE polo shirt is a versatile top that goes with everything, so why not choose your favourite size and colour and try it on? It is a versatile item that you can never have too many of.
Lacoste’s deerstalkers are sturdy and very long-lasting: the deerstalker crew neck I bought 20 years ago has faded a bit, so I use it as loungewear, but it hasn’t sagged at all and is still in working order.
Shop.
The slim-fit polo shirts introduced here were purchased at the LACOSTE Ginza shop. The shop is new and clean, and as soon as you enter the entrance on the ground floor, you can see all the colours of the standard polo shirts on display, so check the actual colours and tell the shop staff the size you want. The staff are young but very polite, so you can shop comfortably.
LACOSTE also offers shopping on its website, so if you know your size, this is also recommended.
