Tom Dixon X Lacoste Polo Shirts

Tom Dixon X Lacoste Polo Shirts

Contemporary designer Tom Dixon works together with Lacoste to reinterpret the way classic polos look for the Holiday Collectors Series. What they ended up with was two styles of polo shirts constructed out of materials that are both durable and ecological. While the Techno Polo combines Hi-Tech weaving of lurex fibers and cotton, the Eco Polo uses indigo dye along with rougher edges on the sleeves for a more distressed look. To add to the over all aesthetics each Polo comes in its own special packaging and will be available on the 15th of November, although rumor has it that Juice in Hong Kong is already in the process of the selling these.
