ss12 Polo Ralph Lauren “Custom Repair / Studded Collar” LS Rugby - L

Blaze-orange heavyweight piqué with khaki studded collar, visible red/green repair stitches, Navajo-style jacquard neck facing (raw edge), wood button + snap placket, army-green Giant Pony, sleeve flag patch, and riveted repair hem gussets. This is the PRL mainline run that imported RRL’s sashiko/custom language into Polo circa 2009–2013. Tag set = “Polo by Ralph Lauren / Custom Fit”, Made in Philippines, 100% cotton.

Condition: intentional distressing/repairs from factory; light paint specks near hem; studs with natural patina. No holes/tears beyond design. See close-ups.

Notes for heads: THEY CAN'T FAKE THIS MODEL! correct period neck/care labels, dense satin Pony, mixed-metal studs and riveted gussets — all authentic cues. Orange LS with studded collar is a tougher find.

Tagged size: L (Custom Fit).
Season: ss12 (estimate).
