I need some assistance identifying a cardigan / sweater jacket from Ralph Lauren, or finding...

I tried it on in an RL store not too long ago. I haven't been able to find it online, which is what I think is a little weird, even outside of RL's site. Essentially, it looks like this, with some differences:
http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11810718&f=Men&kw=skeet&parentPage=search

The colour might have been a little lighter with some more yellow, and the pattern might have been a little different. The main difference is that there was a left outside breast patch pocket, which was a big part of why I was drawn to it. Suspecting a variant design under the same ID, or a photograph no longer accurate to the product, I emailed costumer service and was told that it does not have the breast pocket. There are closures for the neck to draw that up a little higher that are hidden beneath the shawl. The inside is lined with a separate cotton lining.

Any help is appreciated.

Are you sure it's Polo and not RRL, Purple Label, etc?

No, I am not sure. The woman I spoke with in the store about it thought it was purple label, I believe, but we couldn't track it down. I'm pretty sure it isn't black label, and I don't think it was from their athletic line.

I'd usually go back to the first store where I saw the item. I guess it helps to take note of the item # for them to check on it faster. Just a thought.

Unfortunately it was the same store, but they had sold out. Thank you though.

here's another similar one:

I don't think the one I tried on was 100% cotton though.

Did you try the UK site?

I thought I had some weeks ago, but I do not remember seeing that. Thanks.

Unfortunately, that's not it either :/ Maybe I'll ask if I can get it from their US site while I keep looking. With the exchange rate, it wouldn't be worth it for me.

I have now found several others, similar for one reason or another:

http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/beef/item/prm-k-061/
This features an actual belt (instead of the back-belt of the one I tried on), and while it doesn't look much like it in design, the pattern might be similar.

http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/abjnuts/item/0102129/
This one appears to be of a similar material (not colour), and simply beautiful. The pockets were the same design.

http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/backstage-ny/item/rugbym-011/
This doesn't have a belt in the back or else I still wouldn't be sure this wasn't it. The one I tried on wasn't from the Rugby line though, I can almost guarantee.
