Lacoste Polo Shirt

Lacoste is a French clothing brand founded in 1933 by tennis player René Lacoste and entrepreneur André Gillier. The brand is renowned for its iconic polo shirts featuring the green crocodile logo, which was inspired by René Lacoste's nickname, 'the Crocodile,' due to his tenacity on the tennis court. Lacoste's products are manufactured in multiple countries, including France, Peru, Morocco, Indonesia, Romania, and Italy. In 2012, Lacoste was acquired by the Swiss family-owned company Maus Frères, which also owns other premium brands such as Gant and The Kooples. Lacoste continues to be headquartered in Paris, France, and maintains a strong presence in the global fashion market.
