Tha joints just hot now. It's funny too cuz this old man came into my job today and seen the dude behind him in line in one and was like, "Man we used to wear them 35 years ago. When'd they bring them back?" I ain't even know they were that old. I know I look fresh as hell in one of them $70 shirts tho

You know what rod, I've been wondering the same thing myself lol. Personally I'm tired of seeing dudes with them on, I mean forreal can we have some originality these days??? Lacoste, used to be Izod when it was cheap and sellin at the Target, now they slapped a fancier name on it and started chargin $72 a piece for um. I refuse to pay that much for a COTTON shirt, I don't even pay that much for jeans and I enjoy the finer things in life lol. Wearing them a couple times a month is nice, but damn near everyday?? Can we get some variety lol

I was thinkin the same thing!! My grandpa has been wearin 'em ever since I was a little kid and now they're the hottest thing. The shirts are nice and all, but I prefer LeTigre better (for females tho). The fabric on a LeTigre shirt feels much softer to me

I had never even HEARD of Lacoste til I went down to Hampton. And even when I came back...ppl are like "Lacoste who?" Cleveland is extremely slow when it comes to fashion sometimes.

It's weird, history just repeats itself. A lot of old styles that our parents or grandparents use to wear back then have come back in style today, especially with a lot of the female clothing. I guess it's the designer's job to "reinvent" so to speak. Slap a name brand title on it, jazz the product up a little, and place it on the market. They know how to make a sale and know how to make the product appeal to customers.(mostly our generation) I ain't mad at em for trying be entreprenuers and get paid. Lacoste, got shoes and everything. But you'll never catch me dishing out that much for it, shoot I can't afford it right now anyway, but even if I could, their clothes don't really appeal to me that much.
