New, with original tags (With defects)Rene "The Crocodile" Lacoste maintains a rather distinct allotment in history for his accolades and achievements in sports.
In 1929-1933, in collaborating with the textile manufacturer Andre Gillier, Lacoste and Gillier created 'Le Societe Chemise Lacoste', in created the first Lacoste 'tennis shirt' or 'polo shirt'. Employing Rene's nickname 'the Crocodile' for his ferocity on the tennis court, it was emblazoned on the shirt's breast.
The company blossomed after this release for that is what Lacoste wore in-play.
Even after Lacoste's death, the company prospered with a shortened name, for they became purveyors of other items of clothing and tennis equipment. It was in the late 1970s-mid-1980s that "La Lunettes Lacoste' started to find their way into the mainstream.
