REAL and FAKE Lacoste Polo - How Can You Tell??

Many Lacoste shirts on Ebay are fakes, but there are the few that are authentic.

How to spotAuthentic Lacoste Polo Shirts from fakes:

Have a Devanlay Care Tag inside the bottom left corner of the shirt.
Have a Crocodile on the left breast of the shirt, facing outward.
Have a placket with 2 buttons and the buttons have 2 holes, rather than four.
Are designed in France and made in Peru by Devanlay.
Have a European size number, for example: 4 (small), 5 (medium), etc.
Run small to fit.
For men, polos are 100% cotton.
Do NOT say Lacoste on the buttons of the polo shirts.
Have anopen hem at the bottom of the shirt, unlike Ralph Lauren polos that have vented hems.
Tags for short sleeve solid color shirtsare listed as $72 and $85 for striped shirts (unlike many fakes that are listed at $79).

For the record, when buying authentic Lacoste Polo Shirts make sure the Crocodiles are sewn on straight andare bought from a US or European citizen (do not trust shirts that come from China etc. They are more thanlikely fakes). Make sure you follow all of the guidelines I listed above.
