Lacoste x National Geographic collaboration  in Blanc adds a more subtle design to the collaboration between the two brands for the new season of casualwear.

During a 1923 tournament, René Lacoste made a bet with his team captain for a crocodile-skin suitcase. Although he didn't win, the American press dubbed him "the Crocodile" due to his ferocious on-court tenacity.

In 1927, artist Robert George sketched a crocodile for Lacoste, which René proudly embroidered onto his blazers, establishing one of the earliest instances of apparel branding.

In 1933, the company launched its signature tennis shirt, officially dubbed the L.12.12 (where L stood for Lacoste, 1 for the petit piqué fabric, 2 for short sleeves, and 12 for the final approved prototype).

No signs of wear, holes, tears, snags, fraying, pilling, fading, stains, discoloration, odor or other evident damage or alteration.

Even careful hand measurements are approximate, as fabric gives:

40.5" shoulder to shoulder circumference

53" chest - armpit to armpit circumference -where sleeve meets body

53" bottom hem

29.75" length - shoulder to hem

10" sleeve outseam - shoulder to cuff

3" sleeve inseam - armpit to cuff

17 " arm opening circumference

For reference, my mannequin has a 40" chest, and a 34" waist (at the belly button)

The easiest way to evaluate the fit, would be to measure a similar T-shirt which fits and you are comfortable wearing, and compare to the measurements of this T-shirt

Pre-owned items are used and show varying amounts of wear.

For this reason, I provide many photos, which are the best representation of what you are considering purchasing.

Please take a moment to look at them closely, they are part of the description of this item.

If you have any questions, or would like additional photos, please let me know prior to purchasing.

**Please note that colors can often look different on every screen. **

Carefully packed and boxed, and ships promptly via USPS Priority Mail or Ground Advantage Mail, per buyer's choice.

I primarily use recycled packing supplies and do not charge for packing supplies or handling, just actual calculated postage (based on weight, package dimensions, and shipping distance).

I will happily combine shipping on multiple orders, when appropriate.

It is recommended that you launder preowned clothing before wearing.
