How can you tell if a Ralph Lauren polo shirt is real?
To tell if a Ralph Lauren polo shirt is real, first examine the inside of the collar. Compare the label on your shirt to images of Ralph Lauren tags found on trusted online resources, ensuring the font is a match and the words are spelled correctly. Also, double-check that the size tag is separate. Some counterfeits will list the size on the collar tag rather than placing it on a smaller tag attached to the primary label. The hemline can also provide clues. When you lay a genuine Ralph Lauren polo flat, you'll notice that the back hem is slightly longer than the front to allow for easy tucking. Many replicas will lack this detail. When in doubt about authenticity, consult a knowledgeable expert. Shop a selection of Ralph Lauren apparel on 1stDibs.
