It looks like someone ate a Christmas sweater and a flag and shat this out. Jesus, I thought the crap he did for the summer Olympics was foul, but this is way worse. Of course, as long as the clothes aren't made in China, no one's going to call him on anything.

I prefer Nike's take.

you'll probably see a lot of those later this year at RL outlet stores.

Agreed.

As for the Nike stuff, I like it much more since it looks chic and in-line with athleticism, although a little too casual. Is it possible to see other designers' proposals?

The NY Times posted pics on their Facebook feed today and the world is ripping these RL looks apart.

Looks like Ralph Lauren entered the Ugly Sweater Contest and won a gold medal.

Good. These are terrible.

I saw that the retail for the full outfit is over 2k. I wonder how long it will be before you can pick it up at Marshall's for 60 bucks...

If being patriotic means dressing corny, then corn me up.
