RALPH LAUREN'S POLO SHIRT

Brand new and sealed! The only new copy on eBay sent from the UK!

To celebrate Ralph Lauren’s 50th anniversary, the brand decided to honor it by creating a coffee-table book dedicated to its history. The 544-page book, Ralph Lauren’s Polo Shirt, features 400 images and chronicles the shirt you’ve seen on your dad’s, on Kanye West — and now on bookstore shelves.

Split up into sections, the book outlines the Polo shirt from its humble beginnings in 1972 to now, chronicling the limited releases, colorways, stripes, and iterations of the precisely 900-stitch embroidered polo rider on the right chest. (Fun fact: The logo was made by a man who had never watched a polo match.)

This is a hefty, stylish compendium of everything you ever wanted to know about Ralph Lauren's timeless icon-from its origins in the early 1970s through its lifestyle-themed design evolution, featuring more than 350 different Polos in various colors, patterns, and shapes.

Worn by everyone from royalty to rappers, from presidents to movie stars, from athletes to power brokers and everyone in between, the Polo shirt is at once ubiquitous, aspirational and democratic.

Thanks for looking!
