Lacoste Polo Shirt: Is It Worth It? (In-Depth Review)

About this video

The Gazette team provides a comprehensive evaluation of Lacoste polo shirts, examining their history dating back to 1933, construction quality, fabric choices, fit across different models, color range, and overall value proposition. They analyze seven different Lacoste polos across materials, stitching, design details, and sizing to help viewers determine whether the brand’s premium pricing is justified for their needs.

Key takeaways

• The Gazette team argues that Lacoste polos run small in sizing and short in length overall, which may not suit taller individuals or those with longer torsos, and they recommend comparing fit to other brands before purchasing
• The Gazette team notes that Lacoste uses a finer, thinner piqué fabric that is lighter and more breathable than some competitors, and they offer an unusually sophisticated color range with many pastel options compared to other polo shirt brands
• The Gazette team contends that Lacoste represents an above-average polo shirt at an above-average price point, and the value improves significantly when purchased on sale at 40-50% off retail, though the brand markup reflects their heritage rather than luxury-level construction like hand-made buttonholes or premium Egyptian cotton
