A high quality polo shirt that was created in the 20's or 30's by the famous tennis player Rene Lacoste. His nickname was the crocidile so thats where the logo is from. These shirts retail for about $72-90 for a polo shirt. $50 for a t-shirt and about $150 for a sweater. If u get any lacoste items thats under 45 bucks...its most likely fake. They dont come in s,m,l,xl but they use the euro sizing 3,4,5,6,7
Many preps (well mannered intelligent people east coast) USED to wear lacoste but since it was released in to the materialistic world (eg. rappers and rich-snobby snobs who think there rich with thier escalades and big rims). Preps dont wear it as much.

a very high end brand name for preppy clothing
my dad once had a lacoste shirt, but he didnt want to show everyone that he was preppy so he tried to cut the alligator out so no one would find out.
Turns out he left a big hole there and all night pple were asking, whats up with your shirt hahahaha

The alligator. Originally created by the french tennis player Rene Lacoste (who was nicknamed "the alligator"). He sought to create a new kind of comfortable polo shirt. Lacoste was one of the first companys to display a brand on the outside of the shirt.
Today it is world-famous and has moved into all types of fashion, as well as keeping its excellent reputation as quality makers of polos. It has enjoyed a revival of late.

A brand started by French tennis player Rene Lacoste. Made famous with the 1212 polo shirt which features a crocodile on the breast. Sadly it has gone from an honest French brand to being worn by idiots around the world who probably know nothing about the company, only wearing the shirts because other idiots like themselves do.

Cool French guy:why?
Dumbass:Because it's pimpin'!
Cool French Guy:*socks dumbass*
