Do exhibit them in your house?

They certainly do not look fit to wear in public. Despite the label they are what they are, old worn out shirts; the label
certainly does not give them a life extension.

Hi all, I believe I have some very late 1970s Lacoste polo shirts from the mid/late 70s but nothing identifying in the label resource here. Though it might be one to add if we can get the right dating. It has the Norma Legge 1973 on the fabric label so must post date that, also Lacoste registered their trademark (sans Izod) in 1979. So I think we have a good dating of between 1973-1979.

However aparently Izod and Lacoste did not part ways till much later.

I am thinking that this label must have been when Lacoste started to use the label without Izod mention and before they registered their own specific trademark without Izod. I have found 70s adverts with both names being mentioned and also with just Lacoste.

If we could date it accurately maybe we could use it for the label resource? Pictures attached.

I began wearing Lacoste in the early 1960s and the basic style in
their "standard" pique' fabric is the same as today. When did this version
emerge?
