Lactose Polo Pricing

[David G]

Hello! Park & Bond has a handful of Lactose L12.12 Pique Polo on sale for only $45.00. I just picked up some Ralph Lauren polos for a total of $70 bucks the other day. So my dilemma is that I want to wait a little bit before I make another purchase. The Lactose are on final sale though, should I pull the trigger right now or is $45 too good of a price to pass up even if I do want to wait.

Can I wear one if I'm lactose intolerant?

You can go ahead and buy, but be warned that the polos may give you gas or stomach aches.

This is a Damn You Auto Correct if there ever was one...but we should milk it for all it's worth.

[runners n jeans]

We talking 1% or 2%?

[Ben]

just to whey in on the situation, these polos are cream of the crop, but I'd still wait

[runner-guy]

Maybe it's me, but $45 still seems like too much to pay for a polo shirt.

[LesserBlackDog]

I dairysay runner-guy just broke the combo.

[nicholascrawford]

Not to milk this gag any longer than udderly necessary, but was the original intent to say Lacoste?

[runner-guy]

I did break it. Sorry. I guess I got lactose intolerant.

Man, this is one cheesy thread.


But seriously, I don't like how Lacoste polos fit, just my 2 cents.

[Focuspants]

Lacoste polos have 2 different fits I believe. There is a European cut and an American cut. I own a black lacoste polo that fits amazingly which I got from their flagship store here. I went to their outlet because they were on sale for ~$30 and tried a couple on, they were cut completely differently. They were MUCH boxier. It could be they changed their cut between my two visits, but the discrepency was so large I cant imagine it.

[VespaMatt]

Lacoste has way more than just two cuts, its actually pretty confusing.


L12.12 that David linked to is the boxy, classic fit that does not taper. Back when I was wearing Medium in almost all other brands, I would wear an XS in the L12.12 - if that gives you an idea of how different they are cute.


Now I'm craving a grilled cheese.

[runners n jeans]

~$30 at their outlet? I stopped by their outlet store and they were having a "Spring Sale" for some of their polos: $80. I promptly walked out


Speaking of polos, I received an email from Brooks Brother's advertising for a $2000 polo... Apparently it's a boxed set of 44 polos in all of their colors. Who needs that many polos?

Just stay away from the Lactose Swiss cut. It might look nice but damn if it won't be full of holes.
