Our latest brand spotlight is all about Lacoste. The green crocodile is an instantly recognisable icon of preppy sports style, and at Messina Hembry we’ve got plenty of preloved Lacoste pieces for men and women.

Rene Lacoste

Rene Lacoste was a French tennis player who, in 1929, created the polo shirt as we know it today. Dubbed ‘the Crocodile’ because of his performance on the court, he chose this animal as the logo for his newly designed shirt and the rest is history.

Today, you can still expect timeless styles from Lacoste. Their classic polo shirts are a wardrobe staple for men and women, but they offer much more than just tops. Chunky knit jumpers, sporty sweaters, and a combo of formal and causal jackets are just some of the other pieces you can find in our range of vintage Lacoste.
