Are Polo Ralph Lauren's "mesh" polo shirts the same as the classic "pique"?

[Stockton]

It seems to be that the classic polo shirts from Polo Ralph Lauren used to be referred to as "pique" on their website and in the stores. Now I can't find any mention of "pique". Instead I see the term "mesh" used everywhere. I'm confused because I seem to recall "mesh" always having been used, even when the term "pique" was, and always thought it was a different, lighter-weight fabric specifically for warm weather.

PS - I've searched Google and haven't been able to find any instance of anybody discussing this topic.

Anybody know? Anybody notice the same drop of the use or "pique" or am I imagining that?

You can do a search for pique on the Ralph site and still get some results.
But I think pique and mesh are pretty much the same shirts.
