Lacoste Clothing

Lacoste as a brand is very fashionable. Before I review the clothing range i will give a brief background to the brand itself. René Lacoste was a retired professional tennis player when he set up La Chemise Lacoste in 1933 with André Gillier, the owner and President of the largest French knitwear manufacturing firm at the time. They began to produce the revolutionary tennis shirt Lacoste had designed and worn when playing tennis. There was also an influence of golf and sailing in the clothing design. The brand increased in popularity and the 70s saw a large increase in the number of sales under the new management of Bernard Lacoste, the son of the former ...  Read the complete review

Lacoste clothing in general is of a high quality with a good, solid brand, denoted by a crocodile. They manufacture jumpers, t-shirts, shirts, jeans, coats, trainers, shoes, accessories and are probably best known for their polo shirt range, that is of a similar ilk to Ralph Lauren's polo shirts. Like RL, Lacoste make plain polo shirts with the Lacoste badge but also differentiate themselves by producing some very stripey and colourful polo shirt designs! Personally, I am a big fan of Lacoste's plain polo shirts as they are fashionable, good for both smart and casual occasions, of a very good quality and simple. Also, the collars are like cardboard, so if you ...  Read the complete review

Once upon a time Lacoste was a premium brand and well although it is still considered 'designer' i think that they have put out some pretty trashy items in the recent past. However there are still many quality items they produce and can be found on the high street at a reasonable price. For me personally i have always liked the plain Lacoste polo shirts in the most basic of colours. Although it is a very simple piece of clothing, and it may appear that the only thing seperating it from any other polo shirt is a label i would have to say you are mistaken. The quality of the shirt is unmatchable and the few i own have lasted my a few years and are still in great ...  Read the complete review

If you're searching for quality clothing with a 'cool' label, lacoste is the place to look. I've recently purchased some lacoste trainers from JD Sports and they are rather eye catching, with a number of comments. The quality is far more superior than the previous pair of K-Swiss I owned, where the trainers practically fell apart within a few days of purchasing. Lacoste seems to e better built with more durable materials, let alone the fact it looks pure 'sex'. The only problem I find with lacoste is that, due to it being a highstreet brand, many 'chavs' buy into this clothing so it may give off the wrong impression. I have a ...  Read the complete review

I love my designer clothes, I don't drink,don't smoke and don't do drugs (although I'd at times wished I did). So I tend to save up and go on shopping sprees, big ones. My last outing was in April where I found myself looking into the window of Cruise in Glasgow, I thought "right I'm going in to have a blow-out", I went inside and looked around for about a half an hour, I had seen one or two pastille coloured shirts by Lacoste that I really Liked, costing GBP85.00 and GBP105.00 respectively I tried them on, and took them to the checkout. I had a Gala day coming up in June so decided not to wear them till then. On the day of wearing the ...  Read the complete review
