This is not your average pique polo. Lacoste has done this one in a super-fine 16-gauge organic cotton knit that feels incredibly soft and sits with a bit more structure than standard jersey. The light blue shade is clean and easy to style, giving off a subtle retro tennis vibe without trying too hard. It features classic ribbed detailing at the collar, cuffs, and hem, which helps hold the shape nicely. The mother-of-pearl buttons add a quiet touch of quality, and the signature green crocodile is stitched right where it belongs on the chest. Wear it buttoned up with relaxed trousers for a smart-casual office day, or throw it on open over a white tee for the weekend. It is a reliable, easy piece that does the transition from pub garden to dinner effortlessly.
