What is the significance of the crocodile logo?
The crocodile logo is the iconic symbol of the Lacoste brand, representing its founder, René Lacoste, who was nicknamed 'the Alligator' for his tenacity on the tennis court.
Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and air-drying. Avoid high heat in the washing machine or dryer.
Pilling or fabric wear
Wash inside out and avoid overloading the washing machine. Refrain from using harsh detergents or bleach.
Logo fading or damage
Avoid direct ironing on the embroidered logo. Wash inside out to protect the stitching.
