Polo Ralph Lauren labelling...

Currently trawling secondary marketplaces searching for a suitable item...

I'm seeing some BNWT pieces with the old/classic PRL blue label, but with the modern addition of QR code etc.

Am I then correct in thinking PRL has very recently reverted (at least for particular pieces) back to its original label design??

They reverted back to using the classic blue label for some items a couple years ago. They still use the newer label too.

Idiocy is infinite.

First, abolish a signature design feature that is endeared by your loyal customers and instantly recognisable the world over by everyone. Then, bring it back, only partially; to sit alongside its dumb replacement, with no apparent distinction between which pieces get what label.

I don't want to imagine what the people making these demented decisions got paid for them.
