I work as a stock associate for one of the Polo Ralph Lauren factory stores and for a few months I have noticed new inventory, mainly Polo shirts of novelty design, that sport the older tag with the navy and white boxed Polo logo just like the older shirts I still own of the Polo Ralph Lauren brand. The separate clothings tag doesn’t show the blue with the yellow slim typefont design like the usual ones, instead representing how the more classic style as shown in the attached tag while having the new printed layout to represent the UPC and so on. Their most distinct detail is the fact they still have the QR code to verify the legitimacy.

@damian9303 Год назад

Otherwise, this video was super informative in customizing out my current wardrobe ignoring that small discrepancy I noticed as a result of a recent regarding their brand change that started slowly since this new year. I like that you have some of the actual clothing to compare on the rack though it would’ve been cool to also see how much these longer worn pieces can be selling upto because of their historic significance towards Ralph Lauren as a fashion designer.

@damian9303 2 месяца назад

@@jracerichardsDepends if it’s the _Navy_ Blue tag with the boxed Polo that’s followed off with “by Ralph Lauren”, does it say the country of origin on the side of the size letter or at the bottom where it’d usually otherwise denote whether if it’s a Classic or Slim Fit? Polo shirts from before early-to-mid 2010s used to have a special tag when purchased new saying in verbatim that the garment was expertly sewn to shrink down to the intended size when washed in laundry hence that style is now referred to as Classic Fit. If it doesn’t have that PO# tag as shown in the video neither, then it can easily be from the late 90s which makes it a true vintage.

For now on I'm gonna check to see if you have a vid on a certain brand before seeking info on it anywhere else! I just wish I saw this before I spent all that time searching for info on this Polo Ski Bear 2 button Polo. I do have one question though... can 'Made In Northern Mariana Islands' be used to date Polo Ralph Lauren items? I feel like there was a big labor dispute there around 99-early 00s. But idk if they continued to manufacture there after that.🤷

@LootFam 2 года назад

Glad to be able to help! I think you could, but I'm not entirely sure that they never produced there again. I remember there being some controversy about labeling products made there "Made in USA" as they are technically a USA commonwealth. I'll look into it. Thanks!

@SAM-sr3fo Год назад

Hello, I have a green collard shirt with number 3 on sleeve and large USA in orange color across the front looks like a patch with large pony above it.

I used to work for Ralph Lauren (1994-1997). The " Gold Dot" just means it was an item sold at a Ralph Lauren Factory Outlet or a discount clothing store (TJ Maxx, Symm's, Stein Mart, Burlington Coat Factory, etc.) Often it would be items returned from Major Dept. Stores or Specialty Stores to the RL distribution warehouse (because it did not sell) and then redistributed to discount or outlet retailers. This also includes RL second quality items, where the sizing or measurements may be a bit off.
