http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Size...en-Made-In-France-Multicolor/32326175569.html

i used their size chart and ordered XXL based on their dimensions and its slightly bit baggy on me, but not bad. my dad and sis think it looks fine but they like baggy. i will order more and go down a size. Looks VERY nice to me though!

FYI... I am 5'11" (180cm) tall and weigh aprox 173 lbs (78kg).

PS... color is "dark grey" not black
Is the Croc embroidered directly to the t shirt or a separate embroidered patch that's woven onto the t shirt afterwards ? If you understand what i mean .thanks

So, do you normally wear a Large or a medium when you buy them stateside legally? I'm 5'10 and weigh a buck ninty five without pizza bloat. haha I normally buy a large, Callaway, Polo, Nike.. in the states.

When I weighed 190-195 I was always buying size large stateside.

Im just getting into polo shirts since i finally got my ass into shape. im wearing MEDIUM for most tshirts now including medium for polo shirts at jcrew and banana republic. Someplace I read to go a size up from what we normally wear. Since this was my first shirt purchase on AE i decided to go exactly by their sizing chart and ordered an XXL. Slightly baggy. Not bad, probably decent for playing golf or lounging around poolside. Feels baggy on me though. I just ordered a couple more size XL, so i will report back when I get them.

I ordered this shirt on July 30. Just got it now on August 20. Took them a week just to ship it. All other AE orders for other stuff have come rather quickly... like a 1 week to 1.5 weeks.

Good info. I normally go large so I will order extra large. You are a skinny bean pole. I am a fat old man. haha

For 10 bux, I can wait it out.

Its embroidered directly.
That there is why I wouldn't buy one.you can spot those as fake a mile off!!!!!
genuine lacoste polo's should have a Croc patch that's sewn on, so it appears 3d like.they should also have mother of pearl buttons with 2 holes, u can tell by biting them (lacoste sport polo's do not apply to these rules). I have about 30 lacoste polo's from the last 10/15 years.i used to be able to get replicas off ebay with all the correct tells at about £15.they would fall apart after a few washes though.gens are still standing although a bit faded ;-)

Haha not really. Just cut way back on the beer and doing the T25 workouts. I feel like a million dollars with an $8 shirt!

Well I've only had the Bose and the Beats Wireless. But both are great.
I know Beats are easy enough to come by, but I've never heard any so good.
And I looked for a Bose for quite a while, the thing is amazing, and as a comparison to the Gen, I can't recommend highly enough!

Her site sells iPhone 6's too, I asked about them and she was really honest and told me not to bother because they weren't up to the high standards of the other items.

Definitely be interested to see the results of what others buy from her.

If anyone is ordering from her, tell her you are a friend of Jon, we have a good relationship so I'd like to hope that means she would look after you.. Not that I don't think she would anyway!

Hey Jon, can you give me a link to the site. Thanks

What Beats wireless are you talking about?

By the way, seller said, Beats Solo2 wireless is much better than Beats Studio wireless. And it's almost 2x more expensive.

I used to be a bit of a lacoste fanatic years back lol.i got rid of a lot when i realised 90 percent of my wardrobe was the same !!!!
the only items that have a direct embroidered Croc are on the button up shirts and they are a lot smaller

I dunno what the prices for Polo are in the UK. I live near the US and go to the Polo Outlet store frequently. They have the "Custom Fit Mesh Polo" that on sale (which is almost every time I go) costs about $30 USD a shirt. Makes no sense to even buy fake Polos.

Yeah, Solo 2 Wireless is the most recent model. I've bought almost 10 now from her, all have been the same great quality.
