Founded in 1992, Ralph Lauren‘s Polo Sport line is among the New York-based label’s most iconic sub-brands. Embraced by the New York’s underground Lo-Life community, ’90s-era Polo Sport items (the famed Snow Beach jacket!) to this day command high resale prices.
And while designer Ralph Lauren has been notoriously reluctant to capitalize off of nostalgia for the brand, over the past few seasons he’s show a greater openness to celebrating the brand’s yesteryear collections through a series of collaborations and one-off- capsules.
Now comes news the label is reintroducing Polo Sport (which never really went away completely but was subverted into a performance line) in the form of two limited edition collections. Called Polo Sport Denim and Polo Sport Silver, both capsule feature a combination of original silhouettes as well as pieces inspired by prior offerings.
The Polo Sport Denim capsule is sized for men and women and will include a dark denim jacket, utility jeans and a dad cap along with denim shorts cut for women. The Polo Sport Silver collection is sized for men and includes a nylon jacket, windbreaker, vest, two joggers, plus a wasitbag and a dad cap.
Priced from $99 for dad caps up to $498 for the silver jacket, both collections will drop on May 30, 2019 in Ralph Lauren stores, on the Polo app, along with retailers including Fred Segal, Bodega, Grailed, and Opening Ceremony. Check all the items in the collection on ralphlauren.com.
