Product Information
Full details

Its key benefit is the combination of iconic heritage style with premium petit piqué cotton. A potential caveat is its classic fit, which may be looser than modern slim-fit preferences.

FAQs
What is petit piqué?
Petit piqué is a finely textured cotton weave that gives the fabric a characteristic waffle-like appearance. It's known for its breathability and durability.
How does the classic fit differ from a slim fit?
The classic fit offers a more relaxed silhouette with more room in the chest, waist, and sleeves compared to a modern slim fit, which is more tailored and closer to the body.
Are the buttons genuine mother-of-pearl?
Yes, the L.12.12 Original Polo features genuine mother-of-pearl buttons, adding a premium finish.
Can I wear this polo for sports?
While the breathable cotton is comfortable, the classic fit and design are optimized for casual and smart-casual wear rather than high-performance athletic activities.
How do I ensure the embroidered crocodile logo lasts?
The embroidery is durable, but following the recommended washing and drying instructions will help preserve its appearance.
What colors are available?
This specific guide focuses on the Grey colorway. The L.12.12 model is available in a range of classic and seasonal colors.
