Do NOT buy Ralph Lauren at outlets, except you really know what you’re doing! RL produces garments with reduced quality specifically for outlets to push up their margins. You won’t get the actual classic PRL product like on the website, but a rough approximation with the same logo but worse quality.

Recently, by accident, I set the washing machine to a 90c drum cleaning program and there is nothing wrong with my polo shirt. It hasn't shrunk, it's the same size and everything is fine

I use to wear only polo shirts from ralph lauren for more than 20years but I stopped buying them since 2016 because they changed their fit and quality, polo ralph lauren is now garbage.

The polo shirt is just a better fit than other brands. The logo in a contrasting colour also adds a lot to the shirt’s overall appearance.

Completely agree with your takes. Ralph Lauren is very rarely worth full price, though I am glad to have gotten a couple of bargains from Vinted :)

[andreww]

I agree with you about polo shirts overpriced and poor quality.

You bought the cheapest pique polo. They still have good polos for example made of pima.

In a video on YouTube, Ralph Lauren had manufactured a few high end wristwatches with Swiss movements with his name and logo. Yet the same video shows Ralph Lauren always wearing Cartier on his wrist. If a designer won't wear his own products, that should be signal to consumers. LOL.

I have a vintage polo moe skin slack with high waisted pants I got at goodwill

I'd perfer Lacoste polo than Ralph Lauren, or any cashmere/fine merino ones than any cotton polos.

Also I feel their tees are just rip offs, an uniqlo supima one feels way way better

Pieces I like from Ralph Lauren:

Field jackets, Safari Jacket, Varsity jackets, Oilcloth, Knitwear, Denim Supply line with unique prints, RRL line, and ofc their caps.

What I really metioned buying a polo shirt from them is the material quality is really bad i wash it 4 times and it already starts to get pilling all over the garment

[andyzamora]

What do you think of that ASKET polos?

It's disappointing to hear that the quality of RL polo shirts has declined. I have RL polo shirts that are 30 years old and they haven shrunk nor faded. Nowadays, I prefer polo shirts from Yeossal.

Last month I bought some RL Polo shorts. I took them to dry cleaner and I noticed that some of the pocket buttons broke. That had never happened to me. I looked at some older RL shorts I owned and the quality of buttons was better in my old RL shorts than my new RL shorts.

I think the RL Purple Label is more in-line with my style these days but I only buy it when it's on significantly marked down on sale.

You can definitely get the RL Purple Label look for less from several companies and save money.
